<div itemprop="description">Neil Alexander Chisholm Age 62 of Cole Harbour and formally of Guysborough Intervale. It is with great sadness that Lynn says good bye to her wonderful husband and best friend of 15 years. Neil died peacefully, with his family by his side, on May 6, 2014, in the VG Site, QE II, after a courageous battle with cancer. He was the son of Catherine Chisholm and the late Alexander &ldquo;Bus&rdquo; Chisholm. Neil is survived by Lynn, his loving wife; his sons, Christopher (Deanna), Oshwa, Jonathon (Shelby), Bedford; stepson Joey, Dartmouth; stepdaughter Denise (Jeff), Porters Lake. Neil was the proud Papa/Grampie of Tyson, Kyran, Kyle, Reed, Devon and Deanna. He is also survived by brothers, Dermot (Lorna), Archie (Isabel), Guysborough Intervale; sisters, Bev (Leo) Kelley, Halifax and Donna (Donald) Cameron, Dartmouth. Neil will also be greatly missed by his many nieces, nephews and cousins and his good buddy, Dennis. In his earlier years Neil worked on his family farm with his father and brothers. After moving to Halifax, he was a dedicated employee of Caterpillar and Prime Material for over forty years. Neil loved a good game of cards, playing washer toss, darts, camping and singing along with Lynn while she played her guitar. Most of all Neil enjoyed his beautiful grandchildren and the many get togethers with family and friends in his garage. He will be greatly missed by his little four legged companion, Maggie. Special thanks to the VON nurses and the palliative care unit 7th floor VG for the care given to Neil. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society.
