Leah Mabel Langille

It is with great sadness and loving memories that we accept the passing of our mother, Leah Mabel (Pineo) Langille, on April 28, 2024 in Ridgewood Assisted Living, Bridgewater, at the age of 96.

Born in Hall’s Harbour, she was a daughter of the late John and Mabel (Power) Roscoe. She was a member of the Bethany Memorial Baptist Church and the Ladies Auxiliary in Aldershot. She spent a number of years training and working with the St. John Ambulance Organization and later worked at the Kentville hospital, admitting patients and performing EKG’s before moving to Toronto in 1972. Leah was a gentle, kind, compassionate and loving lady who never lost her sense of humour, love for pretty clothes and a good joke. She loved her family dearly and valued the many friendships that she made over the years. She enjoyed spending time during the summer at the cottage in Hall’s Harbour and trips to Florida in the winter.

She is survived by her daughter, Linda (Jack) Whynot, Mahone Bay; son, Larry (Janet) Pineo, Kentville; stepdaughter, Lorraine Langille, Toronto; eight grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren as well as nieces, nephews and wide circle of extended family and friends.
