Eleanor d'Eon

Eleanor Mae d’Eon, 91. It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our loving mom and Nanny, on December 19, 2024, in Yarmouth, N.S., surrounded by her family.

She is survived by her children, Rory (Janice) Ancaster, ON; Anthony (Christine), Middle West Pubnico, NS; Clyde (Dr. Jacqueline), Argyle, NS; and Gretchen (Mike), Upper Tantallon, NS. Her grandchildren, Michelle Hunt, Sarah Klassen, Suzanne Zappia, Félix d’Eon, Jamie Amirault, Brandy d’Eon,and Shelby d’Eon, along with her great-grandchildren Mason, Emily, Domenico, Lucy, Emmett, Renée, and Summer will miss visiting their Nanny. She always had a smile and a hug ready.

Eleanor was predeceased by her loving husband Maxime d’Eon, and her parents Kenneth and Leola (Hatfield) Morton.

Years ago, our Mom was known for her skill at making barbie doll clothes for the children in the community. She also took pride in her beautiful quilts and tending to her lovely flower garden, especially her Peonies. We always knew there would be homemade bread and treats when we visited.

The family wishes to give a special thank you to all the caring staff at Vancouver Place and The Meadows, Yarmouth. Their compassionate care of our mother was so appreciated. Dr. Horton helped us give our mother a peaceful, dignified passing. Many thanks.
