LANG (MacDermid), Florence Mary. It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Florence Mary (MacDermid) Lang, age 95, on Wednesday, June 13, 2018, in the Alderwood Rest Home, Baddeck. Florence was born in Baddeck on May 11, 1923. She was the eldest daughter of Murdock and Catherine (MacRae) MacDermid. Florence was educated at the Old Baddeck Academy and on completion of Grade XII; she attended Dalhousie University where she graduated with her B.A. After graduating from Dalhousie she attended Ms. Murphy’s Business School in Halifax.
