Born and raised in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Mollie married a Navy (later Air Force) pilot at Shearwater, NS, in 1962. They travelled to various locations across Canada on military postings (NS, ON, BC) until retirement in beautiful Victoria, BC. Mollie was a devoted homemaker, wife and mother.
She leaves to mourn her husband of 56 years, Colonel (ret’d) Stanley Brygadyr; daughters, Sheila (Tom Beckley) and Alayne (Connor McCoy) and grandson, Quinn.
Many thanks are extended to the medical staff and volunteers at Victoria Hospice for the excellent care given to Mollie.
A private burial took place at Royal Oak Cemetery in Saanich (Victoria), BC.

Take Good Care, mon ami. We look forward to seeing you in the near future.

Jan Evans Dear Stan
Bill and I were so sorry to read of Mollie’s passing in the paper today. In our younger years we spent much time together in Halifax. However, our careers took us to diffenernt countries and thus we lost contact until Bill retired and we moved to the West Coast. It was great to touch base again a few years back at lunch in Sydney. She certainly was a fighter against her illnesses and was determined not to let it influence her life. Our love and sympathy go out to you, Sheila and Alayne.
Jan and Bill Evans

Art & Carol Nielsen Dear Stan,
We have just learned of Mollie’s recent passing, and we were indeed sorry to receive the sad news.
The message made mention of Hospice staff, so we guess it was not entirely an unexpected event.
Still, when people pass, no amount of preparation can make you ready for the event. Denial alone can be overwhelming.
Carol joins me in offering you and your family our condolences. She was a sweet lady.Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
