Mary Constance McDonald

peacefully in hospital due to a long struggle with Dementia on May 27th 2021. Connie was born

November 9th, 1926 in Toronto, Ontario to James and Greta Hickling and was the eldest of five

siblings. She married her best friend Alexander and lived a happy life with him until his untimely

passing. She loved to travel with her friends especially to Las Vegas, while enjoying a good

drink or two. She had a long fulfilling career working at The Bank of Montreal for well over 30

years where she met her life long friend Christina McLeod. Connie and Chris had a lot of good

times and everlasting memories at the Legion Hall. She retired and spent her days at home with

her dogs and cat that she loved dearly. Even though she spent her last few years battling

Dementia, her Nieces Michele, Susan, Julie, Great-Niece Gabriele, and Nephew Anthony made

sure she was well taken care of until her passing. She is survived by her youngest brother

Bruce (Liz) Hickling. Connie will join her husband Alexander (Bill) in heaven. As well as being

reunited with her parents James and Greta, and her siblings Phyllis, Geraldine and John (Jack).

Her funeral was held June 1st 2021 at St. Paul’s Basilica and she will be later laid to rest at

Mount Hope Cemetery.

Love always and God Bless, Rest in Peace Con.
