HADLEY, Mary Pamela Jane –It is with profound sadness that we announce the death of Mary Pamela Jane Hadley of Mulgrave, on Tuesday, May 5, 2015, in St. Martha’s Regional Hospital, Antigonish, after a long illness at the age of 53. Pam was the daughter of Ella Mae and Seward Brophy.
Pam spent most of her life in the Mulgrave and Halifax areas. She loved her family, loved her home on the water in Aulds Cove and loved to travel. She had been to California, Utah, and Florida with her Hadley-in-laws, to Europe and the Caribbean several times with her husband, Randy. She traced her Irish roots in Ireland with her sister, Gloria and visited the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador and the Canadian Arctic with her friend, Sandra, but particularly she loved her dogs.
She is survived by her husband, Randy; sister, Gloria (Dan) Grady; nephews, Matt and (Ryan, "who was like a son to her"); grandniece, Vera-Lynn, her little working partner.
