• Notes

  Sheldon Sampson, 56, of Port Hawkesbury/New Glasgow lost a courageous battle to cancer on April 28th, 2014 surrounded by his family and friends. Born on June 28th, 1957 in Halifax, Sheldon was the youngest son of the late Francis and Clara (Whitty) Sampson. Sheldon attended school in Port Hawkesbury, and was a long time employee of the Port Hawkesbury Paper Mill. He enjoyed playing softball, cooking, spending time with family and friends, watching hockey, as well as boating and fishing on the Strait. He had a very kind heart and a quick wit that will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him. Sheldon is survived by his three children, Erin, PEI; Matthew (Shauna MacAulay) Baddeck; and Shannon (Brandon Hart) Port Hawkesbury; his beloved grandson, Ethan, his partner and best friend, Sharon, her daughters Josie and Jessie; Sisters, Donna (John) Brokken, Herring Cove; Jo Anne (Michael) Lazzareschi, St. Louis; and brother Wayne (Toots), Port Hawkesbury as well as his many nieces, nephews, grand-nieces and nephews.
