Eva M. McCrum

Eva M. McCrum (Lord) of Clarence Ridge passed peacefully on Thursday, March 10, 2022, surrounded by family at Passamaquoddy Lodge in St. Andrews, NB.

Eva grew up in Elmsville, daughter of the late John and Ethel (Monohan) Lord. In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her husband of 62 years, Keith McCrum, and their daughter Marina, as well as her four siblings, Jimmy, Donald, Merwyn and Gail.

Eva will be devastatingly missed by her family - her sister, Ann (Maurice) ; her children, Dale (Sandra), Larry (Tanya), Charles (Tammi), and Dianna (Morris) ; her grandchildren, Christina (Adam), Amanda (George), Mary-Jo (Dana), Jason (Lisa), Katie (Nick), Joey (Rebecca), Rusty (Kelsey), Scott, Sarah (Jarrod), Kayla (Joshua), and Marina (Courtney) and chosen granddaughter, Tasha McCrum ; seventeen great-grandchildren, with one on the way, and one great-great-granddaughter.

Eva was known at the Saint Andrew’s market for her delicious baked goods and for always having the best blueberry stash. She worked at the tuna plant (Starkist) until it closed in 1985, and then retired from the Fundy Nursing Home, where her hard work and dedication was always admired. Eva loved to play and spend time with her dear friends at the bingo hall. She will be missed by many in the community, and her legacy will live on through Charlotte County, and beyond.
