Johnson – Donna Ann, 70, of Brooklyn, Queens County, passed away peacefully in Queens General Hospital, Liverpool on Sunday, April 19, 2020.
Born in Liverpool, Donna was a daughter of the late James and Carrie (Roy) Carver.
Donna left high school early, but, completed her GED and in 1971 graduated from Mack’s Business College in Kentville as a stenographer and married her husband Clifford in 1971. She worked at the Bank of Nova Scotia in Kentville as a secretary for a year before transferring to the Bank of Nova Scotia in Liverpool where she worked for several years. She loved growing flowers and had many gardens. She enjoyed camping and vacationing and also playing bingo, sewing, knitting and attending many craft shows until her health declined and she was unable to do so. She loved large Christmas dinners with her family, reading and watching golf and NASCAR racing on television.
She is survived by her husband Clifford; her sons Ian of Summerville, Cory of Brooklyn. Her grandchildren Marcus, Baileigh, Lyndsie, Leah and Madison and her great granddaughter Anistey.
Besides her parents, Donna was predeceased by her brother Terry.
A private family graveside service for Donna will be held at a later date under the direction of Chandlers’ Funeral Home, Liverpool. No flowers by request, donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society or to a charity of your choice. Online condolences may be made to www.chandlersfuneral.com
Donna’s family wishes to thank Dr. MacDonald and Dr. Cosh as well as the nurses at Queens General Hospital, Liverpool and South Shore Regional Hospital, Bridgewater for their kind and compassionate care. Clifford wishes to thank everyone for their words of comfort and shared memories of Donna.

I am so sorry that Donna has passed away. When we were a lot younger, we spent time together. I always admired her beautiful long hair and her petite size. She was a good friend of my Mom Rita and My Aunt Dot. Visiting all the time when they lived on Main Street. My sincere condolences.

Cliff & family. – first let me offer my family’s sincere condolences on Donna’s passing. One day last week, I received a phone call from Aunt Mary (who is Uncle Dougie’s wife and lives in Hammonds Plains) to let me know . I should tell you how I am related to Donna. Your father-in-law, Uncle Jim, and my Mother, Dolly were sister and brother, so therefore Donna and I were first cousins. I don’t remember much about Uncle Jim. He, along with Uncle Buddy and Uncle Dougie stayed at our home when they worked in the Dartmouth area – so I was about 7 years of age at that time and now I am 82 My Mom and Dad had moved to Dartmouth , shortly after I was born and we did not get to Port Mouton very often to see family, so consequently we did not get to know our families very well.
We know that this is a very difficult time for you and family, as we lost our son, Chris just 3 years ago with 5th stage throat cancer. It takes years to heal over the loss of a loved one – but it will get easier as time goes by.
