Mina Healey was born in Bo’Ness Scotland to Betty and James McKay. She emigrated to the USA in 1966 with her then husband (Dr A J Healey) and the first two of their three children. She lived her life adventurously. She settled in Fort Collins to be close to her grandchildren, having previously lived in New York, Pennsylvania, Texas and California. In later years, she enjoyed reading, watching her grandchildren grow and having coffee with ‘the ladies’. She is survived by her sister (Betty Hill), her three children and two grandchildren: Colonel Anthony Healey, Prof Jo Phoenix, Dr Vicki McCarthy and Morgan and Ainsley McCarthy. There will be a small family service in Scotland. Memorial contributions can be made to Larimar Humane Society.
