PACE J. Shirley PACE Chronicle Herald 22/11/2006
PACE, J. Shirley
PACE, J. Shirley - Passed away Monday, November 20, 2006, following a brief illness. The widow of the late Hon. Leonard L. Pace, Shirley was a resident of Seabright for over 25 years. She is survived by her three children, Beverly (Roger), Robert (Louise), and David (Patricia). Originally from Glace Bay, she was the eldest daughter of the late Reta and Lloyd MacFadgen's nine children. She is survived by her brother, Robert (Mabel), and sisters, Josephine (Glasier), Beverly (Trevor), Myrtle (Wayne), and brother-in-law, Dr. Graham Pace. A hard worker, she excelled throughout high school receiving many top prizes and went on to study at Truro's Normal Teacher's College. She later returned to Glace Bay to teach grade nine. Shirley's focus was always on her family. With the little money she had earned from teaching school, Shirley and her brothers created a family business for their father, aptly named McFadgen's Bakery. A strong advocate of education, she went on to earn a
Bachelor of Arts degree from Acadia University where she and Leonard met. The two later married and moved to Halifax where Leonard was attending law school. It would be here where Shirley would raise her three children. However, she wasn't a typical "mother of three" as throughout Leonard's political and public life, she worked tirelessly on his campaigns as both a key strategist and his closest confidante. When it came to business, Shirley always had a vision for success. She managed the finances at McFadgen's and was instrumental in helping her sons create their company, Evergreen Landscaping Ltd. Her entrepreneurial spirit did not lay solely with her immediate family. Shirley proved herself the consummate entrepreneur in opening The Christmas Shoppe and operating Canadian Christmas Wreaths with her daughters-in-law, Louise and Patricia. Shirley will be forever missed by all nine of her grandchildren. To them, she was more than a grandmother. She would not hesitate to
jump in the ocean with them on a late August afternoon at "the Boathouse" or to challenge them to improve a less than perfect test score. As a grandmother, Shirley will be remembered for the love and encouragement she gave to all her grandchildren, while teaching them to be the best that they could be. Shirley was not only a loving and caring mother and grandmother to her immediate family, she also gave her knowledge and time freely to anyone, whether they sought advice in matters of business, or simply required the comfort of a friend. Until her very last day, Shirley was a true source of energy and inspiration to all her family and friends. Visitation will take place in William Black Memorial Church in Glen Margaret today from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. The funeral service will be held at 2 p.m. on Thursday, November 23, in William Black Memorial Church. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the William Black Memorial Cemetery Fund in Glen Margaret.
Memorial donations can be mailed to 110 Bayview Dr., Hackett's Cove, NS B3Z 3J9

In 1943 at the young age of 18 years, Lawrence enlisted in the army and received basic training in Yarmouth, N.S. It was in Yarmouth that a call went out for volunteers to join the paratroopers and he signed up. After receiving extensive training in Aldershot, N.S., Lawrence went to Winnipeg for a medical to become a paratrooper. Upon completion of all tests, he went to Camp Shilo in Shilo, Man., headquarters of the Paratroop Training Centre.
Lawrence served overseas in the Second World War with the 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion attached to the British Airborne Division. The Battalion served in France, Belguim and the Rhine. The Battalion returned to Canada to prepare for the Pacific, however, the war ended and the Battalion was disbanded. Lawrence returned home and pursued his education in the field of drywall and interior design.
When the Korean Conflict broke out, Lawrence volunteered. He took his discharge in 1954.
From 1955-1963 Lawrence worked with various companies as a drywaller and then formed his own business, employing six trained First Nation drywallers.
Lawrence was elected as Chief of Membertou in 1967 and served a two-year term. He was so proud of all the changes and progress being made in his community. He was a proud Mi'kmaq.
In 1969 Lawrence was a co-founder of the Union of Nova Scotia Indians and started an alcohol and drug program. He later founded the Native Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselling Association and served as the executive director. He worked as a regional consultant for the Department of National Health and Welfare and was instrumental in helping to set up alcoholism programs in the provinces of New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island. He later worked as a consultant to the Boston Indian Council and set up Tecumseh House, a treatment and recovery house for First Nations people living in the Greater Boston area. He served as executive director of the Nova Scotia Arts and Crafts Society, setting up regional corporations for Native Arts and Crafts on a National level and then worked as an economic development officer for UNSI. Lawrence retired in 1985, but remained steadfast in his efforts to reduce alcohol and drug abuse among his people.
For all his tireless work in the field of alcoholism and drug abuse education and his contributions to his community of Membertou, Lawrence gratiously and humbly accepted an Honorary Doctor of Laws (Honoris Causa) from the University College of Cape Breton at May 1995 Convocation.
Lawrence is survived by his wife, Joan (Hiscock) Paul; his sons, Lawrence (Louise) and Adrian (Sheila); his daughters, Ethel, Lauria Ann, Jeannette, Anna and Eileen; 33 grandchildren, 50 great-grandchildren, and a great great-granddaughter, Gabrielle. He is also survived by his sisters, Ruth Christmas and Delores Buckland and sister-in-law, Elizabeth Paul. Lawrence is survived by many nieces and nephews. He is survived by his mother-in-law, Jean Hiscock; brothers-in-law, Jim, Wayne, Ron, Todd and sister-in-law, Brenda Lee. He will be missed by his community and by everyone whose life he touched.
He was predeceased by his first wife, Ethel (Cope) Paul, daughter, Karen (2008), granddaughter, Wendy Ann Denny (2002) and grandsons, Brian Nevin (1999) and Darrell (1968). He was also predeceased by siblings, Isabel, Dorothy, Cecilia, Mary Virginia, Percy, Vincent, Ron and Dan. Lawrence was a friend of Bill W. for 47 years.

Paunins Anna Paunins Cape Breton Post 22/08/2009
Anna Paunins, Sydney

Born in 07/11/1921

With profound sadness we announce that our dear mother, “Nanny” and friend, Anna, passed away peacefully after a courageous battle with COPD at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital, Sydney, on August 20, 2009, surrounded by her loving family.
On November 7, 1921, Anna was born in Vilani, Latvia and was one of nine children. Her youth was spent housecleaning, gardening, tending cows and horses, picking berries and mushrooms and she was most passionate about running everywhere.
The Second World War found Anna in Germany, involved in an underground covert brigade where she heroically provided safety and escape to the Jewish people in peril.
In 1946 she married her husband, Anton, settled in Germany and gave birth to Sylvia and John. She immigrated to Canada in 1951 with her family and made Sydney her home.
Anna is now happily reunited with her husband, Anton; her grandson, Seamus Flynn, along with members of her immediate family and relatives.
She is survived by daughters, Sylvia (Jimmy) Flynn, Three Fathom Harbour, Mary, Sydney; sons, John (Margaret), Cornhill, N.B., Leonard (Sandy), Meaghers Grant, Frank (Susan), Winnipeg and Tim (Katherine), Stittsville, ON; grandchildren, Angelina and Luke Flynn and Ashley Paunins.
In her final months and throughout her life Anna’s spirit was filled with a profuse love for Jesus and we know that she is now at peace in the arms of her Saviour and Lord.
Anna was an amazingly beautiful person with a deep love of life and believed with all her heart that we should love one another as Jesus loves us. So she spent her life loving her family, neighbours and all she met. She put love into action by being a faithful partner and friend to her husband, raising her children to have integrity and compassion, welcoming strangers and friends in her home, sharing what she grew in her garden with others and giving joy and comfort to others by placing their needs before her own.
Anna was gifted with many talents. She had a special love for music and played the accordion, autoharp, piano and harmonica. Her wish was to be a music angel in Heaven. She spent her leisure time knitting and crocheting beautiful afghans and loved to give them away as gifts. She had a very creative spirit and loved to paint pictures which we will now treasure. She loved work so much that it was hard to get her to rest even when she was not well. Even in Anna’s toughest times during her struggle with COPD she never complained, kept her sense of humour and always had a smile on her face. She truly showed us what it means to be a hero and her spirit, life and love will be etched in our hearts forever.
Visitation will take place at Sydney Memorial Chapel on Sunday, August 23, 2009 from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. A mass celebrating Anna’s life will be held at St. Joseph’s Church, Cabot Street on Monday, August 24 at 11 a.m. with Rev. Gerald Dunphy officiating. A reception will be held in the church following mass.
“Our precious one loved us and others so much and she will be so greatly missed.
Rest in Blessed Peace, Anna. We love you.”

Forever, he shall be remembered as a warm-hearted family man who possessed a strong work ethic and treasured life's simplicities. Always there to lend a helping hand to others, Gordie never sought praise. Anyone who knew Gordie was better in life for it. His playful sense of humour, charm, and fun endeared him to all. A spirited and vital presence in celebrating special holidays and events, Gordie loved being surrounded by the people he adored - his family.

Lowell Pearson

Born in: New Victoria, Nova Scotia, Canada
Born on: 05/05/1940

Passed away in: New Victoria, Nova Scotia, Canada
Passed away on: 10/02/2010

Lowell Thomas Pearson of 28 Cameron St., New Victoria, died at 3:15 a.m. on Feb. 10, 2010, at the Halifax Infirmary.
Born in New Victoria on May 5, 1940, he was the son of the late Gordon and Constance ‘Mallie’ (Cameron) Pearson.
Lowell was a member of the former St. Joseph’s parish, New Victoria.
In addition to being the best husband, father, grandfather, uncle, son, brother and friend one could ever have, Lowell was an extraordinary personality with tremendous wit and humour. Never short for words and always quick with a joke or story to share, Lowell was a true original who shall be so very sadly missed by his loyal and loving family and friends. His laughter will forever remain in our hearts.
When it came to his family, there was nothing Lowell wouldn’t do to ensure the happiness and well-being of his true love and wife, Vera, and children by endlessly giving his love, support and profound wisdom.
A master craftsman, he could turn his hand to pretty much anything. The crack of dawn and a broken heart are exceptions to what he could repair or modify. One was left to marvel at his abilities to problem-solve and critically think.
Lowell owned and operated L. Pearson Construction and later went on to form Victoria Builders Ltd. with his best friend and son, Gordon, by his side. Sadly, Gordie’s sudden death in 2008 marked the end of an era. Although Lowell officially died of complications due to congestive heart failure, most would claim that he died from a broken heart.
He was both president and union steward of the International Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners Union, Local 611 of New Waterford and District, now Local 1588 in Sydney, for both Port Hawkesbury and Glace Bay heavy water plants, respectively. Lowell also donned the hat of general foreman.
An outstanding outdoorsman, Lowell’s passions were nature and hunting. Communing with nature brought him great joy and solace, be it in woods or upon water’s shores. He respected life’s natural beauty with its furred and feathered friends. At home, he treasured his two Chihuahuas, Joe and Foo-Foo. He also enjoyed fishing with his grandsons, gardening, and yard work. In his earlier years, Lowell had been a fine amateur boxer.
The consummate warrior, Lowell fought a good fight before leaving this world, surrounded by his wife and daughters whom he adored. He died in the light of peace, love and God, with Archbishop Hayes attending his spiritual passing.
Lowell is survived by his wife of 49 years, the former Vera Ratchford; daughters, Linda, Toronto, Nicole (Ian) Nearing, Beaverbank, Lower Sackville, Debbie Lee (Kenny), Glace Bay, Amanda, Dartmouth; one brother, Sonny (Selena), Toronto and daughter-in-law, Barbara, New Waterford. He also leaves behind his beloved grandchildren, Candace, Cameron, Coleton, Brenan, Haylee, Ryan, and two step-grandchildren, Chantel and Cortney.
He was predeceased by his cherished son, Gordie, and dear sister, Ave Maria.
Visitation for Lowell will be held Sunday from 2–4, 7–9 p.m. in the V.J. McGillivray Funeral Home, 380 Smith St., New Waterford. A celebration of Lowell’s life, officiated by Fr. Doug MacDonald and Deacon Leo Penny, will take place at the Parish Church of St. Leonard, Mount Carmel Avenue, New Waterford on Monday at 10 a.m. Interment will be held at Forest Haven Memorial Gardens, followed by a reception at St. Agnes Hall.
As an expression of sympathy for Lowell, memorial donations in his memory may be made to the Nova Scotia Heart and Stroke Foundation and the local S.P.C.A.
Online condolences to the Pearson family can be expressed through the funeral home website www.vjmcgillivray.ca.
God saw you getting tired,
And a cure was not to be,
So He put his arms around you,
And whispered, “Come to Me”.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands at rest.
God broke our heart to prove to us
He only takes the best.

Fraser RUBBY-DUB CLAIMS LIFE OF WALTER PERO Rubbing Alcohol Claims Life Of Youthful Miner Walter Pero, Native of Boularderie, Dies in General Hospital After drinking Rubbing Alcohol - Deceased Had Been Employed in No. 11 Mine But Lately Had Not Been Working Glace Bay, March 18 - Walter Pero, aged twenty-seven years, a former native of Mill Creek, Boularderie, died this evening in the general hospital, a victim of rubbing alcohol, which he drank Friday evening. Pero was removed to the general hospital at 2:30 Saturday morning by the police after dr. D M McDonald had been called and ordered the man immediately sent to the hospital. Investigation made by the police this afternoon after Dr. Calder had informed them that there was no hope for Pero disclosed that he had met Edward Arsenau of Main street Saturday afternoon about four o’clock near Senator’s Corner. Pero had said he was not feeling well and that he had 25 cents with which he intended to purchase a bottle of rubby dub. Arseneau urged him not to drink the rubby-dub but Pero replied that he had been drinking and that he had not eaten anything all day. Mrs Leo Doyle, Log Row stated to the police that Pero came to her house about five o’clock Friday evening, stating that he had not eaten all day. He was pretty full then and after getting his supper he remained until nine o’clock. Before he left he told Mrs Doyle that he had been drinking beer and wine and that he had drank a fifty cent bottle of rubbing alcohol raw out of the bottle. Pero, stated Mrs Doyle, in her statement to the police returned to her place about half past ten, appearing to have sobered up somewhat. Before she retired Mrs Doyle gave him a lunch, but he did not eat much and laid down on a couch down stairs. Leo Doyle, stated to the police that he returned from work at one o’clock. Pero spoke to him, asking if it was a fine night. Mr Doyle had something to eat and then retired. His wife told him that Pero had been quite drunk but had sobered up and added that Pero told her he drank a fifty cent bottle of rubbing alcohol. Mr Doyle said he was only a short time in bed when he heard Pero groaning and going to where he was, found Pero walking around the room holding onto his stomach as if in great pain. Pero asked Doyle to get him a drink of baking soda, afterwards asking for a drink of water. The pain continued to get more severe and moved to his heart and left shoulder. Doyle went out and returned with Dr. McDonald, who after an examination of Pero ordered his immediate removal to a hospital. Mr Doyle then rushed to Senator’s Corner where he met police officers and a few minutes later officers Hugh McLean and Buddy McDonald were on their way to the General Hospital with Pero. On Saturday he seemed to be improving and it was felt there was no immediate danger but today he took a turn for the worst and Dr. Calder who was in attendance with Dr. McDonald, notified the police. He sank rapidly and at five thirty he passed away. On his way to the hospital Pero told the officers that he had drank the rubbing alcohol, but refused to divulge where he had secured it. The unfortunate young man had formerly been employed in No. 11 colliery, but of late had not been regularly employed. His father, Charles Pero resides near Sydney Mines and he has several other relatives in and around Sydney Mines and the Boularderie district. The remains were taken to Curry’s Undertaking parlors and prepared for burial. After conferring with Crown Prosecutor Patterson, Chief McInnis decided that in view of the knowledge in the hands of the police an inquest was not necessary, it being agreed by all that the man had come to his death by his own rashness in drinking raw rubbing alcohol.
