| 1610 | Obituary: Hargrove, Basil Kenneth - Age 72 , of Melbourne, Australia passed away peacefully in Darwin, Australia on October 26, 2023. Basil was born and raised in Bath, New Brunswick, Canada. He was the loving son of Bernard and Polly (Giberson) Hargrove, loving father to Josh, Sommer and Jana, loving father in law and good friend to Ania and Adrian, loving grandfather to Ethan, Ned, Lily, John and Sophie and loving brother to Gregor (deceased), Jennifer, Gus, Hilery, Jaye, Larry, Cheryl (deceased), Jeff, Darren, Heidi and Jill. Basil was successful in most of the things he did in life. He brought a unique energy and passion to his endeavors which made them seem effortless and enjoyable. Even in high school we could see the accomplishments that would define his life. Basil lived a full life, filled with adventures that he shared with friends and family. And as a result, was widely loved and respected. He cherished his small town roots from growing up near the Monquart stream and continued to appreciate all the good things and good people who came into his life. He made the most of every opportunity that life provided and never waited until they landed in his lap. Basil sought out new challenges and new destinations and remained energized by constant learning. As a teenager he was involved with the small businesses that Bernard and Polly developed, including a private hydroelectric dam. Basil was a gifted athlete with significant accomplishments, most notably in track and field and basketball. He set provincial records for high jump and pole vault, with his age group’s provincial pole vault record unbroken for more than 40 years. He and Marilyn Gould, his high school sweetheart, married as teenagers and they raised three wonderful children together. He was the valedictorian of his graduating class of Bath High School, graduated from the University of New Brunswick and York University, where he completed his Master’s degree in Business Administration. He applied his education and enjoyed a long, successful career with McCain Foods, which began in Canada and eventually led him to become the Managing Director responsible for McCain’s operations in the Asia Pacific region. Basil and his family transferred from Canada to Australia with McCain Foods, settling first in Ballarat before relocating to Melbourne. Among his many business accomplishments with McCain’s, Basil oversaw the construction of new factories, acquisitions of other business and substantial organic business growth before his retirement in 2006. Basil was an eternal optimist. Any lemon that life gave him was just a little bit of work away from being the most delicious lemonade. Basil was diagnosed with a life threatening illness in 2020 and he handled it the way he handled everything in his life. He learned about the illness, he planned how he would manage it to the best of his ability, he involved his family whom he loved so dearly, and he continued to make plans so that everyday could be as meaningful as he envisioned it should be. He tackled that diagnosis with energy and determination. When treatment options were exhausted, he continued to run his race as well as he could. He enjoyed every possible moment with his family and shared his adventures and adventurous spirit with his children and grandchildren. Basil could not have been prouder of his family and grand children. Basil died while on a new adventure. He was travelling to the Northern Territory of Australia with his daughter Jana and was busy enjoying life and planning new adventures until the very end. We loved Basil. We loved the way he participated in our lives, the way we laughed with him. We admired him. We respected him. We will miss him very much. A memorial service will be arranged in Melbourne in the coming weeks. https://www.gibersonfuneraldirectors.ca/obituaries/173405 | HARGROVE, Basil Kenneth (I18197)

Bob retired in 1995 from Thomas Equipment at the age of 65 after 15 years. His special retirement project was the building of “Camp 66” on the shores of the Shiktehawk in Kenneth, NB. Bob was always ready to lend a helping hand to neighbors or any new residents of Florenceville-Bristol. He was a proud member of the Faith Memorial United Church where he served as a Steward, an Elder and on the Building and Cemetery committees. He was also a member of the Elks Lodge. Bob and his boys could be seen all around the village shoveling snow, trimming lawns, or cruising the streets on their Cub Cadet lawnmowers. He enjoyed curling, camping, fishing, hunting, reading, playing cards and watching his boys play sports. He did not miss a game or a chance to provide coaching tips to the boys all the way home! The family wishes to express sincere appreciation to Dr. Marco, Dr. Anderson, the staff, and caregivers on 2-North at the Upper River Valley Hospital and his home care providers Kayla and Shelley.

| 1627 | Obituary: It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Leroy Avril Davenport at his residence in Kilburn, NB on September 15, 2022, after a lengthy battle with cancer. Leroy was surrounded by his loving family and peacefully went home to be with his Lord and Savior. Leroy was born on March 28, 1936, in Bristol, NB. As a young child, Leroy worked alongside his grandfather plowing and harrowing the fields, planting crops, cutting hay and wood. He drove a team of horses at the tender age of ten. Leroy recalled seeing pavement for the very first time at the age of twelve and was thrilled the first time he saw electric lights when power came to Holmesville in 1949. He was amazed how quickly the lights turned on when he turned on the switch. When he completed his responsibilities as home, he would help a neighbor on his farm cutting pulp and planting crops for twenty-five cents a day. From the age of 12 to 20 years of age, Leroy worked at the school as a janitor, farm hand for Willy Barrett and woods worker for Crabbe’s Lumber. At the age of twenty, Leroy started working on the Beachwood Dam and was thrilled to have earned $1.00 per hour. At the age of 22, Leroy married the mother of his children, Ruth Greer from Fosterville. Leroy and Ruth were blessed with five children but suffered the loss of a infant daughter shortly after birth. The Davenport family settled in Holmesville and raised their family. Leroy was a wonderful husband and father and provided for his family. Leroy worked for Irving Oil for several years and was presented an opportunity to manage Linwood Giberson’s livestock farm and Leroy accepted. Working with Linwood provided an opportunity to gain experience to buy, sell and transport livestock and this experience set the groundwork for Leroy to move on to running his own Livestock Broker business later. In 1987, Leroy married Elizabeth Avery and they settled in Kilburn, NB. Leroy and his son Ronald bought a farm and developed the farm by building two houses, a barn, grainery and a shop. His business grew and he enjoyed farming, buying and selling livestock and he continued to work until his health declined. Leroy is predeceased by his mother, Verna Budrow, Stepfather Marshall Budrow, brother Donnie (Brenda), and sisters Stella and Loleta, infant daughter Pamela and grandson Jordan Gahan. Leroy is survived by his loving wife, Elizabeth, sister Shirley (Dyke) Denny and Sister-in-law Brenda. His children, daughter Kathleen (Lester) Verrill, sons Ronald (Beverly), Dwaine (Scarlett), Vaughn (Patricia) and the mother of his children, Ruth Blue. Stepchildren Brian, Terry, Kendall, Leica, and Troy Avery.

| 1636 | Obituary: It is with profound sadness that we announce the death of Dr. Mary Agnes Kilfoil, born on August 28, 1956, in Johnville, New Brunswick. Mary passed away peacefully at her home, in Halifax Nova Scotia, on September 7th, 2023. Mary lived life with infinite love, grace, generosity, and selfless devotion to family, friends, and community. She was a woman of remarkable achievements and boundless energy. We will miss her razor-sharp intellect, wit, insightful words of wisdom, and uncanny ability to lighten any room she walked into. Mary cherished her family and embraced life's simple joys. She found immense happiness in being a mother to Zach, who forever will be her pride and joy. Mary met her soulmate, Dr. Ed Leach in 1999, and they married in August 2005. Together, they built a life that integrated both family and career resulting in a life filled with love and adventure. Mary's warm heart extended to her large and loving family. She was the eldest of nine siblings - Gerald Kilfoil (Donna), Vincent Kilfoil (Brenda), Patrick Kilfoil (Andrea), Michelle Ralph (Peter), Katherine Wood (Peter), Maria Kilfoil, Michael Kilfoil (Wanda), Sean Kilfoil (Corinne) and a stepsister to Mitchell York. She was a devoted mother to Zach and a caring stepmother to Trilby Sylvain (Garrett), Patrick Leach (Francine), Nathan Leach, and Kevin Leach. Mary was an aunt who loved spending time with her 20 nieces and nephews. Nana Mary cherished being a grandmother to Callia Sylvain, Kaelan Sylvain, Grace Leach, and Cecilia Leach, who have fond memories of baking and sewing with her. She was often at their sporting events cheering them on. Mary loved spending time with family, travel, and vacations, especially at Hubbards Beach. Mary was predeceased by her mother Joan (Brennan) Kilfoil, father, Gerald Kilfoil, and stepmother Anna York Kilfoil. Mary held graduate degrees from Dalhousie University (Ph.D., Economics) and Carleton University (M.A., Economics) and as well as undergraduate degrees in economics (Saint Mary’s University) and business administration (St. FX University). She taught at Acadia University, Mount St. Vincent University, Saint Mary’s University and at Dalhousie University in the fields of economics, entrepreneurship, research methods, public policy, program evaluation, and quantitative analysis. Mary also had 20 years of experience in the private sector as an entrepreneur, consultant, academic, researcher and policy analyst in a wide range of local, regional, and national studies. Mary’s crowning achievement was the development and deployment of the Starting Lean course. As the Director of the Norman Newman Centre for Entrepreneurship at Dalhousie University, Mary dedicated her life to fostering innovation and entrepreneurship. Her visionary leadership propelled the Centre to new heights, and she was the driving force behind bringing the Starting Lean course to Dalhousie in 2012. This ground-breaking program, which combined Lean Launchpad methodologies with mentorship, revolutionized entrepreneurial education. In recognition of her exceptional contributions, Mary was honored with the national Entrepreneurship Educator award from Startup Canada in 2014. Her experience in both the private sector and as a senior economist at Gardner Pinfold Consultants exemplified her commitment to economic analysis and policy. She and her husband were soulmates dedicated to supporting the success of those they encountered. They were exemplars of vibrant active agers, showing what they could accomplish after age 65. On June 21st of this year Mary won second place in a national pitch competition for her presentation of the Certified Age Friendly Employers program. She was in the advanced stages of completing a pilot with TIANS (the Tourism Industry Association of Nova Scotia) and was about to scale a proven solution that enhanced economic productivity by addressing a labour shortage in the tourism sector while at the same time demonstrating the positive impact of “purpose” in people’s health outcomes. Her memory will forever live on in the hearts of her family, friends, and colleagues. She leaves behind a legacy of innovation, kindness, and an unwavering dedication to fostering entrepreneurship that will extend for generations to come. A celebration of Mary's life will take place Saturday September 16th at the Banook Canoe Club, 17 Banook Ave Dartmouth. The celebration service will begin at 2:00 and followed by a chance to network and chat. There is limited parking at the Canoe Club but lots of public parking is available directly across the lake connected by a walking path and bridge. Funeral service and internment will be held the following Saturday September 23rd at 11:00 at St. John the Evangelist church, 309 Johnville Rd, Johnville, New Brunswick, with reception to follow at the Knights of Columbus Hall in Bath, New Brunswick.

| 1638 | Obituary: It is with profound sadness, that the family of Mahlon R. Davenport announces his passing at home; with his family at his side, on September 02, 2023. Mahlon is survived by his Second Love; his wife of 14 years, Karen. He was predeceased by his First Love; his wife Janis, of 37 years. Also predeceased by his parents; Myrtle(Ruff) and Clifton Davenport. Also one brother; Ernie and his wife, Pauline. He is also survived by his son; Andy and his beautiful, kind, loving wife; Tamara. Mahlon was so happy to welcome her into the family, in 2019. Also survived by 5 much-loved Grandchildren. Ethan, Emmit, Elliot, Isabella and Hunter. IN ANDY’S WORDS: It is a true gift to have someone part of your life, that is so full of love and support. My Dad was someone that was truly genuine, generous, honest and hardworking. A Dad that went out of his way to help someone. I am so proud to call him my Father and my Best Friend. Looking back; it’s hard to imagine Dad working full-time at McCain Foods Ltd. for 39 years, as well as working in the bakery with Mom and somehow, he never missed one of my hockey games, over the years. Later in life, he continued to support his family, by lending a helping hand; where and when needed. Or just be there to talk with, or ask for advice. The world was truly a better place, with him in it. “Grampy Mahlon!” Words can’t describe the love that he had for his Grandchildren. From the youngest to the oldest, they all want to be like Grampy. They all have the same big, loving, heart he had. They will forever cherish their time with him! Mahlon is also survived by 8 siblings; Darlene Paterson(Darrell), Neisha, Susan Giberson(Peter), Kim, Brian(Linda), Mack(Darla), Terry and Ricky. Toiling at McCain Foods Canada, for 39 years; he retired at 55 to be with his First Love; as she fought her own battle with cancer. Then came his Second Love; Karen, with whom he enjoyed his retirement years. His 3rd loves, were all his dogs he had, though-out the years. He leaves behind his much spoiled, Min Pins; Allie and Jack, who miss their daily cuddles and treats. He loved working with wood and built his own home in 1981. It was his happy place and he was very content to stay at home. He was a quiet man, who lived a quiet life; in the place he most loved to be. A Celebration of Life; hosted by his son, Andy, will be held at the L. R. Giberson Directors, on September 09, 2023, between 1 p.m. until 3 p.m. All are welcome! Orange was Mahlon’s favourite colour, if you wish to wear it. Also, write down a; “Mahlon,” story and it will be read aloud. If so desired, a donation in memory of Mahlon can be made to the Valley Food Bank or the Carleton County Animal Shelter. Arrangements have been entrusted to Carleton Funeral Home, 337 Lockhart Mill Road, Jacksonville NB. https://www.gibersonfuneraldirectors.ca/obituaries/172360 | DAVENPORT, Mahlon Roy (I18080)

| 1645 | Obituary: It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Cedric Ritchie, peacefully at his home in Toronto, on Sunday, March 20, 2016 at the age of 88. Beloved husband of Barbara for 58 years. Devoted father of Heather Walton and Kim Persky (Michael). Proud grandfather of Jana, Eric, Kyla and Kevin Persky; and Courtney, Connor, and Taylor Walton. Dear brother of Ruth Ritchie. Fondly remembered by his nieces and nephews, extended family, former colleagues and many friends worldwide. Cedric was predeceased by his parents, his brother Douglas and his sister Helen (Ritchie) Baker. Born in Upper Kent, N.B., Cedric had only a high school education when he started his career with the Bank of Nova Scotia (Scotiabank) in 1945, as a teller in Bath, N.B. Despite this humble beginning, Cedric served the bank with diligence and dedication in a variety of posts in Canada and throughout the world, culminating in his appointment as President and CEO in 1972, and Chairman of the Board two years later - a position he held for more than 20 years until retirement in 1995. He was renowned for his uncompromising integrity and his indefatigable work ethic. Even in retirement, he continued to go to his downtown office and provide sound advice and council. He was a financial services pioneer, introducing innovative new banking services to Canadians and expanding Scotiabank internationally. A proud Canadian, Cedric gave back to his country in many ways. He served on the boards of many corporate and philanthropic organizations. He was also a Fellow of the Institute of Canadian Bankers and was an inductee of the New Brunswick Business Hall of Fame. In 1981, he was made an Officer of the Order of Canada for his banking and commerce contributions. In recognition of his significant impact in Canadian business, Cedric received honorary degrees from St. Francis Xavier, Dalhousie, University of New Brunswick, Mount Allison and Queen's. In 1993, he was declared Business Man of the Year by the Harvard Business School Club of Toronto and Business Leader of the Year by the Western Business School of Toronto. He was elected to the Canadian Business Hall of Fame in 2000. Although golf was an aspiration, reading was a passion. As an avid student of history, politics and business, Cedric was never reluctant to inject a wry smile and a little humour into any discussion. Often publicly recognized for his successful career, Cedric was equally accomplished but very private in his dedication to those things most important to him. Cedric had a deep love for his family, for Canada (and the province of New Brunswick) and his faith. His family meant the world to him and he cherished every opportunity to share time together. He was always there to offer encouragement, congratulations or a kind word when events didn't go as planned. We will sorely miss him. The family will receive friends at the HUMPHREY FUNERAL HOME A.W. MILES - NEWBIGGING CHAPEL, 1403 Bayview Avenue (south of Davisville Avenue) from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. on Thursday, March 31st.

Today Mitchell, dad’s oldest grandson and I will share the life and times of John (JR) . When dad passed away this week my daughter Liana said “I thought he was going to live to be 100” and for all of here, 100 is one of those landmark numbers and my reply was “Grampy lived a long life, he has lived for over 33,000 days “and today Mitchell and I would like to reflect on few of these days. John was born on the family farm in Aroostook , Oct 8, 1918 the youngest of 10 children. He was a blonde tow head and I am sure an active child as are his grandchildren here today. His early days were spent working on the farm, roaming the woods and streams as well as learning to swim in the Saint John River. Dad was able to perform some of the best acrobatics in the water and he always created quite a stir with his underwater headstands. He enjoyed sports and was active playing baseball. As a teenager during the Great Depression , Dad was industrious with jobs working at Louis MacIver’s general store, or shovelling snow for 25 cents an hour. As with today times were challenging and the calling of young people to military service was a response to new opportunities. I was asked by my Grammy Demmings to say a few words at today’s service. It is my honour to do so. I have several thoughts that I would like to share with you today. The call to serve one’s own country drew many young Canadian to a land unknown. In the summer of 1940 at the age of 21 Grampy left his home town of Aroostook with his friend Wilmot Hanscome and hitch hiked to Saint John to enlist with the Saint John Fusiliers . Two years later in the summer of 1942 he left Halifax on the Athlone Castle for Liverpool, England and upon their arrival his troop joined the Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa. The next two years were spent in various parts of England. Grampy told us “One of the highlights of this time was our 48 hour leaves to London and the open pubs in every town.” Imagine a young man from a small village in New Brunswick riding the underground and seeing Buckingham Palace for the first time. For Remembrance Day 1997, Grampy wrote of his experience and here are his words: “Daylight was breaking as we left Southampton Port, on June 6, 1944. The wail of bagpipes sent a chill of excitement and fear through our bodies. We landed around noon on JUNO beach, many of the advance brigades left a scene of wounded and dead. We were part of the 9th brigade, stalemated briefly only to move on assist in the capture Carpiquet airport. The combined allied forces of the Canadians, British and Americans saw the reclaiming of France.” He felt a close connection with the Dutch as he spent the winter of 1944-45 living in Holland in a doctor’s home without heat, as they did not want to indicate any presence of human habitation. During the period of liberation Grampy travelled throughout France, Belgium and Holland. After May 5th, 1945 his remaining days in Europe were spent distributing food and assisting people to return to their home countries. Grampy rarely spoke of the war, but he did mention something that I remember distinctly. He once told a story of being in a foxhole during a combat operation. Somehow he said that he was run over by a tank while he was in the hole. Obviously he lived to tell the story. After the war, Grampy was fortunate to return to Europe three more times to commemorate the end of WWII. He mentioned visiting the Groesbeek cemetery and tracing his previous path in Europe. In 1995, he proudly returned once again in order to attend the 50th anniversary of the end of WWII. He returned one more time in 1999 to France to commemorate the new monument in Caen. I also have fond memories of being able to have participated in the Remembrance Day ceremonies here in Perth Andover in years past, along with Grampy. Although I have never known the scourge of war, it was a proud moment to be able to wear my Customs uniform, while he was in his Legion uniform finished off with his medals. I remember attending the evening remembrance celebrations as well. Grampy was a proud soldier and a very proud Canadian. Once Dad returned to Canada on the ocean liner Queen Elizabeth he was offered a job with the Canadian Pacific Railway. His name appeared on the seniority list next to his nephew Clifford and John Pelrine. He initially was a brakeman and later a conductor. Oh how we loved to go down to the caboose and sit up in the cubicle and look out over the train yard , in later years Dad enjoyed doing the same in the dome car of the VIA train. The CPR was a large part of Dad’s life for the next 37 years. The largest part of dad’s life was mum. The story goes that while visiting his brother Wendell and wife Lorna that he spotted the young teacher with the dark hair at the school adjacent to their home. Mum tricked him and left for Plaster Rock to teach for a year- that must have jumpstarted him to ask him to marry her and in October 1949 they were married. They shared this special beginning with Uncle Irvine and Aunt Edna. Dad quickly became a big part of the Millie family and has played the role of big brother and father to mum’s siblings. As we know marriage is work and over the years Mum and Dad were the best of friends, they agreed to disagree. Many of the heated discussions between them would scare many a stranger but became the banter of a long relationship. Mum and Dad were married 60 years ago this past fall and we were fortunate to have so many family members with us as to celebrate their anniversary Thanksgiving Day weekend. Our early family years were spent in Aroostook. This gave us the opportunity to play with numerous cousins, hear stories from our extended family on the front lawn and glassed in porch which overlooked the then Trans Canada Highway. When Dad got the call to go to work we would know how long he would be based on the trip. We would inquire where are you going and Dad would tell us Edmundston, McAdam, Presque Isle and Plaster Rock. Of course Mum who is famous for packing “the bucket” would plan accordingly. I can still see the small tin can for short trips and the bigger than a bread basket can for those overnight trips. Dad sure loved Mums cooking.... Dad and Mum taught us to appreciate the outdoors, we had many family trips camping and we laugh about the time he ignited the mantels of the kerosene heater near Quebec City. Packing up the kids and heading off with our huge tent and gear for the whole family must have taken a lot of patience as we took off on our camping holidays. Many weekends were spent fishing or hunting -of course Brent and I were always falling in the brook and getting wet and he would curse us but always come to our rescue. I’ll also let you in on a little secret- Brent didn’t enjoy cleaning fish or partridge so I would always get the job as Dad’s assistant. We had frequent trips to Ottawa to visit Dad’s mother and sisters, which began to develop our understanding of Canada and open the world to the little kids from Aroostook. One of the benefits of working for the railroad was the travel pass and Mum and Dad would take the train whenever an opportunity rose, to EXPO ‘67, across Canada in 1977..... In 1992 they joined me in a trip to the California, where dad was thrilled riding on the trolley cars of San Francisco , followed by a train trip along the west coast to Vancouver. I always liked how Grampy was occasionally referred to as JR . Referring to him as “JR” seemed to me to be straight to the point and had an air or respectfulness to it. That is how I would describe my grandfather. I would also describe him as a man with a sense of humour and a strong work ethic. I will always remember Grampy as being an independent and healthy individual who always was never shy about sharing his opinion on any number of topics. Sometimes you didn’t need to ask! When together we would chat about the day’s politics and sports events that were happening. He was always very engaged in current events and would follow the hockey games closely. Dad was an avid sports fan and many weekends were spent watching Brent play hockey and ball, as well as his favourite sports teams on television. I swear he could make most plays from his chair and was a true Canadian hockey fan. While our big sister Debbie was growing up, she had the “boys” coming to call most weekends. Rumour has it that Dad scared many away but not Norman who joined our family in 1970. Debbie and Norman married in 1971 and today they are here with their children Mitchell and Jill as well as Dad’s great grandchildren Samuel, Meredith and our newest addition to the next generation Adison. I have some early memories of spending time at Grammy and Grampy’s camp in Riley Brook. Although I don’t recall the stories I’ve heard of me riding my toy duck down the dirt road, I remember later events such as Grampy splitting wood and moving lots of topsoil in the very early mornings. There were times when he would indicate very clearly and very early in the day that it was my time to get up out of bed and help do the same. Looking back now, he must have been in his 70’s and I remember him being the picture of health. He never complained about the need for hard work and always had his tasks completed. I also have other very fond memories of time at the camp, especially when he would take me out for a ride in his large river canoe. I would be responsible for providing the lookout at the front of the canoe and alert him to the rocks ahead, so he could alter his path. I would look back and see him standing at the rear, masterfully manoeuvring his canoe around the river, based on my advice. He really seemed to be the admiral of his ship to me at that time. It was only years later, when I asked to borrow the same canoe and travel on the same river that I was able to truly appreciate the skill necessary to manoeuvre such a long and heavy brute. I gained a little more respect for Grampy that day. I also have memories of watching the federal election, probably in 1993 at the camp. Grammy and Grampy had a satellite dish there, which I thought was a marvellous thing to have. The results were still coming in from across the country and around midnight I heard a blast from the bedroom, indicating in so many words, that it was time to turn the television off. Brent’s family joined Dad in his later years and Joyce quickly became another of Dad’s girls, sharing a common work ethic and believing no task is too hard. They worked on many projects together around the house and camp. They have been at the house daily for Dad for the past twenty five years. Dustin and Dave, it’s hard to believe he would let you mow the lawn or shovel as my recollection is that he was always itching to get outside and take care of his yard. Never to do things in a conventional way Mike appeared in our life in 1996. Dad enjoyed spending time at the Old Mill and watched the house change over the years. He and Mum were at the airport when Hiew and I arrived from Malaysia in June, 2001. He would push Hiew up and down the driveway swatting the mosquitoes away from the little baby. He was there once again when we moved backed to Connecticut being my main babysitter for Liana as we moved into our new house. Liana was with Dad last week, shared a few chocolates, sat on his bed and held his hand. In the past few days, I’ve thought about the many historical events that Grampy would have experienced during a life of 91 years. Many wars have been fought. Countries have been born. Babe Ruth scored his home run record, the Great Depression took place, the colour television was invented, and the space program allowed humankind to travel outside of this world, the Civil Rights movement took place and the fall of the Iron Curtain. Communication around the world, in most form, is now instantaneous. Travel around the globe is now measured in hours. It is simply incredible the changes that Grampy was able to experience. The last time I spoke with Grampy in Fredericton, which was a few weeks ago, he was being cared for by a nurse who had come to Canada from Hungary. I listened to him tell her of his time in Europe and the places he had seen. He asked me if I would like to go to Europe with him one more time, I think with his typical mischievous humour. I said I would love to, but at this stage in his life, he said it with a smirk, knowing it probably wasn’t possible. Samuel While preparing this eulogy, my son asked me what I was doing. I explained to him that I was writing down some things that I remembered about Grampy John and I asked what he remembered. Samuel , who is 6 years old, says he remembers Grampy John mowing the grass for us at his house Perth. That means that Grampy in his late 80’s, still getting the things done that needed to be done. Finally Samuel wanted to say “I love Grampy John”. Please let’s remember and celebrate the life of John Demmings. Rest in Peace Grampy. Thank you. ********************************************************************8 | DEMMINGS, John Randolph (I5061)

| 1666 | Obituary: On Wednesday, August 10, 2022 at the Upper River Valley Hospital in Waterville,NB, Burton Eugene Donovan of Wicklow (and formerly of Simonds) went home to be with the Lord. Born January 12, 1947 in Bath, NB, he was the son of the late Rev. Andrew and Leola (Toms) Donovan. He was also predeceased by 1 sister in law, Loretta Donovan; 2 brothers in law, Bernard McManus and Alan Peterson. Burton is survived by his loving wife of 52 years, Judy; 4 daughters, Kristina Wood (Phillip), Karen Manning (Rubin), Cheryl Gratto (John) and Cindy Giberson (Lance); 16 grandchildren, Emily, Brian, Erica, Jessica (John Scott), Allison (Anthony Boutilier), Vanessa (Colin Legere), Amelia, Anthony, Xander, Andrew, Aleah, Adrianna, Dane, Emma, Sarah and Isaac; 3 great grandchildren, Luci, Valencia and Anderson; 4 siblings, Connie McManus, Marshall Donovan, Bonnie Wasson (Keith) and Howard Donovan (Elizabeth); sister in law, Sharon Battiston (Louie) as well as many nieces, nephews and extended family. For most of his working life, Burton was a professional driver, which provided many adventures including hauling gas tankers, and loading heavy equipment to the far North, even trucking on ice roads in the North West Territories. He was cautious, dependable, and honest, earning recognition for safe driving (1 & 2 million mile plaques) and mentoring younger drivers. These traits made him an example of faithfulness throughout his life. Dad rarely passed up a coffee run, always looked forward to visiting with his girls and grandchildren, and was a valuable helping hand. Burton was always part of a musical family where his voice resonated with a collection of his favorite songs, and he would accompany the music on bass and acoustic guitar. As a quiet outdoorsman, his company will be missed for hunting and fishing with his grandchildren. Burton was appreciated for the many times he was asked to lead in prayer and has left a legacy of faith in the hearts of his children and grandchildren. The many life lessons he's communicated with sincerity and conviction will not be forgotten. Visitation will be held from L.R. Giberson Funeral Directors, 207 Burnham Rd. Florenceville-Bristol on Monday August 15, 2022 from 4-7 pm. A funeral service will be held on Tuesday August 16, 2022 at 2:00 pm Rev. John MacMullin will officiate.

| 1670 | Obituary: Pauline Lavery (née Boyd) passed away peacefully on October 14th, 2023, surrounded by her loving family. Pauline was born on February 23rd, 1938, in Johnville, New Brunswick, as the youngest of nine siblings. Her early years were marked by long walks to school, early mornings milking cows, potato picking; and fostering her lifelong love of music by learning to play the piano from the nuns at St. John the Evangelist Church. After graduating from Bath Regional High School in 1955, Pauline pursued her passion for education and became a teacher. Her teaching career led her to Calgary, where she crossed paths with her future husband of 58 years, Alex. Pauline taught with the Calgary Catholic School District and as her family grew, she continued as a guest teacher. She later shifted to a role in Human Resources with the Calgary Health Region until she retired. Above all, Pauline's greatest joy was her family. She was a dedicated sister, wife, mother, and grandmother. When not at home, she found solace in her faith as a devout Catholic, actively participating at Holy Spirit Parish. Pauline's voice filled the church choir, her piano playing was a staple during weekday masses, and enjoyed the fellowship of making rosaries with and for school children. Pauline is survived by her loving husband, Alex, her cherished children, Jim (Marianne Bunker), Kate (Kevin Masters), Paul (Kyla Lavery), and Jenn (Ian Fero). Her memory lives on through her eight adoring grandchildren - Jakob, Tyler, Kyle, Alexandra, Brendan, Joel, Lukas, and Rachel. She is also survived by her devoted sister, Denise, and numerous nieces, nephews, and extended family. Pauline is now reunited in eternity with her parents, Cloud and Gertrude Boyd, and her siblings, Helen Barry, Maddie Logue, Billie Benson, Barbara Krochenski, Basil Boyd, Arnold Boyd, and Sam Boyd. Pauline's family wishes to express their heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Bouchard and the compassionate staff of the Applewood Unit at Providence Care Center for their unwavering kindness and support over the past seven years. Pauline's memory will forever remain in our hearts. She will be deeply missed, but her spirit lives on in the lives she touched. May she rest in eternal peace.

| 1673 | Obituary: ROCHENSKI, Barbara Mary July 12, 1929 - October 2, 2017 We are saddened to announce the passing of Barbara Krochenski, the morning of Monday, October 2, 2017 in Calgary at the Bow View Manor at the age of 88 years. Barbara was born on July 12, 1929, the fifth in a family of nine, three boys and six girls, to Cloud and Gertrude Boyd at the family home with no running water, telephone, or electricity in Johnville, Carleton County, New Brunswick. Barbara attended one room school houses up until high school, which she did by correspondence, then boarding in Newcastle, NB, for grade 11. Next was teacher's college in Fredericton. This was only six months long due to a teacher shortage, so she was in a classroom at 18 years of age. Two summer sessions in St. John, NB completed her requirements for her teacher's license. Barbara taught in one room school houses close to home for four and a half years, then William's Lake, BC, for two years, and Manitoulin Island for one more year for the Department of Indian Affairs. Finally, she ended up in Calgary at the Separate School Board at Sacred Heart and Holy Name schools. Teaching is how she met Walter, who was an accountant with the school board, whom she married on August 19, 1961 in the Church of St. John the Evangelist, Johnville and settled in Calgary, raising five children. They were married over 50 years before his passing. Barbara was also predeceased by, her sisters Maddie Logue (Johnny) and Helen Barry (Ronnie); brothers Basil (Teresa), Sam (Betty), and Arnold (Cecelia); and granddaughter Emily Guest. She is survived by, sisters: Wilhemina (Billie, Joe Benson), Denise (Karel Vanderkley), and Pauline (Alex Lavery); children: Stephen, Peter (Susan), Mary Jane (Gordon Matlock), Ellen Guest, and Suzanne; and grandchildren: Emma, Zoe, Laura, Shannon, Matthew, and Rachelle, Hannah, Conor, and Cassie. Barbara was known for her love of reading and a deep interest in any news of her children's school achievements. She had a seemingly infinite supply of wise Irish folk sayings - one of which she had ready for almost any situation. Funeral Mass will be celebrated at St. Luke's Catholic Church (corner of Northmount Drive and Northland Drive NW) on Tuesday, October 10, 2017 at 11:00 a.m. Graveside Service to follow at Queen's Park Cemetery.
