Wolfe, Marjorie Ann

Amherst, NS

March 16, 1945 - July 29, 2025

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Marjorie Ann Wolfe. Marjorie passed away Tuesday, July 29, 2025, at Northumberland Hall in Amherst, NS.

Daughter of Donald and Eileen Mitchell, Marjorie was born March 16, 1945 and grew up in Pugwash and Williamsdale along with her brother Robert (Bob), and sister Barbara.

After meeting the love of her life, Ralph, she married and started her own family having three children, Donald (Donnie), Patricia (Patti) and Amy. Living in Amherst, then Nappan for almost 60 years, she made many friends in the community through 4H, being active in the church, and crafting.

After nursing school, Marjorie raised her children, then continued her career as a dedicated CNA at the Amherst Regional Hospital until her retirement.  She was a longtime 4H leader and supporter, traveled uncountable weekends to cheer on Donnie as a hockey goalie and Patti and Amy at many horse shows.  She always attended their various sporting events throughout the early years and spent summers at the cottage in Pugwash with her immediate and extended Mitchell family.  

She enjoyed embroidery, sewing, scrap booking, many crafts, tole painting and art which she loved to share with family and friends.  She loved to garden vegetables and flowers, making pickles and homemade jam, cooking and baking. A caring and compassionate lady, what gave her the most joy was caring for and spending time with her family.

Marjorie was able to travel with Ralph before and after retirement, spending most of the summer months at their trailer by the beach.

Marjorie was predeceased by her parents Donald and Eileen Mitchell and sister, Barbara Maxwell. 

She will be sadly missed by her ever-caring husband Ralph, as well as son Donnie (Annette) Wolfe and daughters Patti (Greg) Hoeg and Amy (Rob) Rayworth; her grandchildren Jonathon (Sam) Wolfe, Kristen (Matt Gould) Wolfe, and Nick Wolfe; great grandchild Logan; her brother Bob (Ruth Ann) Mitchell, nieces Susan (Jamie) Pitt and Cathy (Matt) Creamer her brother-in-law Reade (Eva) Maxwell, nephews James (Darlene) Maxwell, John (Chrissy) Maxwell, Arnold Maxwell, niece Brenda (Mark) Carter; several great nieces and nephews; cousins and extended family and friends.
