Lorna Jean (née Young) Coleman

Lorna Jean (née Young) Coleman, age 84, of Kentville, passed away in rest on the early morning on Wednesday, December 4, 2019, the culmination of a hard-fought battle against cancer. Born in 1935 in White Rock, she was the daughter of the late Ernest and Jean (Campbell) Young, of White Rock/Greenwich and lived 84 years on this earth. Lorna gave much of herself in service to those she loved, unrelenting even in the face of death. Lorna was a dutiful mother to her children and helped in the raising of her grandchildren and was an avid gardener. She was a lady of classic virtue and retained her gentle and dignified character throughout the final stage of her life. Lorna will be remembered with loving warmth by her husband of 59 years Edwin; daughters, Susan, Michelle (Terry), and Rachel (Mike); three grandchildren, two great grandchildren; and brothers, Loran (her twin) and Raleigh. A graveside service will be held at 2 p.m. on Tuesday, September 15, 2020 in the Elm Grove Cemetery, Steam Mill. Donations in memory may be made to the Valley Regional Hospital Foundation or the Canadian Cancer Society. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to the White Family Funeral Home and Cremation Services, Kentville.
