Marion Isabel Newcombe

It is with love and gratitude for a life well-lived that we announce the passing of our mom, Marion, 89, of Windsor, formerly of Port Williams. She passed away peacefully on December 7, 2020, at home. Born in Medford, Kings Co., she was a daughter of the late Walter and Esther (Thornton) Woolaver. In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her husband, Donald Newcombe; with whom she shared 48 happy years, infant twin children, Deborah and Douglas; infant daughter, Susan; her siblings, Phyllis, Helen, Floyd and Louise; her in-laws, Isabelle (Ken) Parker and Robert Newcombe. Marion shared a close friendship throughout her life with the Anderson, Lewis and McCarron families as they became part of her extended families. Marion graduated from Teachers College and was an elementary school teacher. She was a lifetime member and Provincial President of the Women's Institute, a role she was proud and passionate about. She served on the board of Valley Regional Hospital. She volunteered at Port Williams Elementary School as part of the Special Friend Program for many years. She was an active volunteer in the community of Port Williams where she resided for 60 years. She was a member of Windsor United Church. Marion was a great entertainer and welcomed her children's friends in her kitchen where her famous brown bread was served daily. If shopping was an Olympic sport, Marion would have brought home a gold medal! She supported all her grandchildren's activities and was fortunate to have attended all of their high school and university graduations. Interment will take place in Willow Bank Cemetery, Wolfville.
