| 1091 | OICKLE, John Arlington 'Arlie' At the age of 101 years, passed away to take his place in Heaven on October 4, 2019 in Camp Hill Veterans’ Memorial Building, QEII. Born in Lower West Northfield on September 13, 1918, he was a son of the late Harlan and Edna (Bruhm) Oickle. John was predeceased by his brother, Leroy Oickle; and his youngest daughter, Anne Marie McDonald (of Breadalbane, P.E.I.). John wore so many hats in life and he wore them well! - that of devoted husband, proud and supportive father of eight children, caring grandfather, loving great-grandfather, decorated RCAF Veteran, dedicated teacher, community-minded and a most generous of spirit gentleman. John lived life to the fullest with his wife Anne by his side for over 73 years. He lived a most remarkable and honorable life. John joined the RCAF in 1941 retiring in 1963 with the rank of Flight Lieutenant. John loved to fly, he learned to fly on the Tiger Moth, and he especially loved to fly the Avro Canada CF-100. As an RCAF pilot he had incredible experiences; 'Jack' (as he was known by his flying buddies) received the North Atlantic Star medal. He had a direct connection to the AVRO Arrow story in 1958 as he did some advisement on the instrumentation panel for the Arrow and he was an approved test pilot for it. A dream that was never realized, as the Diefenbaker Government chose to discontinue the Arrow. Upon retirement he moved his wife and children to Nova Scotia where he managed the Halifax Flying Club as the Chief Flying Instructor, flew as an on-call pilot for the original Air Atlantic patrolling the Transatlantic Cable between Nova Scotia and Newfoundland, often accompanied by his sons. He then followed a career as an Industrial Arts/Drafting teacher at Sackville Heights Junior High for 14 years, often speaking so fondly of the students he taught in his portable drafting classroom. As a proud and conscientious citizen with strong leadership skills he believed in service to his church and community; he served in many ways that most would not be aware of. John and Anne were active members of St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church, Fall River for over 40 years. He served the Church in many capacities as Eucharistic minister, minister of the Word, catechetical teacher and charter member of the Knights of Columbus as well as a Fourth Degree Knights of Columbus. He received the Order of Merit from Archbishop James Hayes in 2001. He was a lifetime member of the Royal Canadian Legion, Dieppe Branch, Waverley. One of his great passions in life was the outdoors; camping with his kids, waterskiing with the kids on Chambly Basin, walking through the woods in Bridgewater, canoeing up the lake in Waverley, gardening and growing all sorts of berries to make his own delicious wine, and trying to keep the birds off his prized blueberry bushes. John loved to build; he was a master carpenter. He and Anne designed and built their home of 40 years on the shores of Lake William; he built a carriage house to house his workshop and a lean-to for his treasured antique tractor. He even went as far as to build a barn for the girls’ goat and horse. Dad will always be remembered as the loving Dad to call on no matter the day or the time...if the furnace wasn’t working or the car was making a strange noise; lending an ear if life was bumpy or sharing his homemade wine or delicious strawberry and rhubarb jam. He made the best oatmeal-coconut cookies without a recipe. Dad was an incredible storyteller and even in his last years he could recall in great detail, his days as a youngster driving his first car or his days flying across Canada and the United States. We will always remember his walking us out to the car after a memorable visit to wave good-bye, wearing his plaid woodsman jacket and cap. Funeral service will be held on Friday, October 11th in St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church, Fall River at 11 a.m. with Rev. Father Michael Walsh presiding. A reception will follow in the church. Family flowers only please. A private family burial will be held in Oakridge Memorial Gardens, Middle Sackville. | Oickle, John Arlington (I10740)

| 1096 | On Saturday, December 7, 2019 we, the family of Maureen Lee Salter of Hantsport, lovingly said goodbye to an incredible wife, mother, grandmother, friend, neighbor and community volunteer. She meant the world to us and in turn, she cared so deeply for each of us that her greatest gift was helping us cope with letting her go.

Her father immigrated from Islandmagee, Northern Ireland. She was a graduate of Windsor Academy and Windsor School of Business. As a young woman she worked for Vic Cleyle\'s clothing store and later in life, Tatum\'s Fashion and Bridal. Mum was definitely a people person and often behind still chatting while Carl waited patiently in the car for her. Over the years, Mum enjoyed volunteering at the Windsor Elms, Hantsport Food Bank, Hantsport Memorial Community Centre, Hantsport Hospital Auxiliary and the Hantsport Fire Department Ladies Auxiliary. She was active in the Lockhartville United Baptist Church as a deacon and faithful member. She was also involved in and valued organizing the Apple Blossom Festival teas and the royal party visits to Hantsport. She enjoyed being a member of the Crown Jewels (Red Hatters). We were gifted with a wonderful, caring supportive mother who was our biggest fan cheering us on at sports, school events, pageants and in life. She never hesitated to volunteer to drive, chaperone, organize or fundraise for our activities. She wanted only the best for us and for us to be our best. She gave selflessly, not only to us but also to her extended family members, being a caregiver to several over the years. She was a huge fan of Canadian figure skating, especially Kurt Browning and was thrilled to attend skating competitions and ice shows meeting the skaters. She was a keen follower of the British Royal Family and their fashion sense. Mum loved the music of Rita MacNeil and Anne Murray and the opportunities she had to meet them in person. She not only loved people but also adored her Sheltie dogs. She had a very special place in her heart for a certain Schnauzer named Martini. A private interment will be held in Centre Falmouth Cemetery, Falmouth. | Browne, Maureen Lee (I7954)

| 1107 | Our precious, Freda “Maxine” MacClure (nee Banks) - 79, of Lake Land Retreat- passed away peacefully on October 30, 2021. We have learned incredible life lessons from Maxine about love, strength and determination. Maxine loved totally and fully and once she gave you her heart, she loved you forever. Every phone call or visit ended with "I love you". The love for her husband Robert and her children was in her eyes until the end. Maxine had strength beyond measure that would bolster those around her and bring peace to others. Even when the end was near she was at ease and had no fears of what was to come next. Her determination was immeasurable and a true testament to her family and faith, faith that was important to her throughout her life. Her absence will leave a void for those she has left behind but she will continue to live on in the memories and hearts of those that loved her the most. Maxine is predeceased by her parents Arthur and Thelma (Hatfield) Banks, her brother Ronald and sister Doreen (Banks) Fraser. Maxine was never one to be the centre of attention, so in that fashion her service will be private. Friends wishing to honour Maxine are invited to make a donation to; Greenfield United Baptist Church, Valley Hospice or charity of your choice. | Banks, Thelma (I2621)

| 1111 | Owned by E. Churchill & Sons, PLYMOUTH is perhaps best known for a moving diary of life aboard which was kept by Alice Coalfleet, the wife of her captain George Coalfleet. Alice recorded travel, storms, accidents and the birth of her own child aboard PLYMOUTH. Her saddest memory was the transfer of her husband from PLYMOUTH to the barque HAMBURG where he died soon after from heart disease. Ironically PLYMOUTH would later end its days as an abandoned wreck lying beside HAMBURG, uniting in their demise, the two vessels so closely associated with the life of Alice Coalfleet. In 1905 at the end of her sailing career, PLYMOUTH was sold to the J. B. King Company of New York and was converted into a gypsum barge and used to transport gypsum from the Avon River, Nova Scotia to New York. Story After many years as a gypsum barge the vessel was abandoned by the company in 1921 and left to decay on the Avon Riverbank beside HAMBURG, WILDWOOD, PLYMOUTH and ONTARIO. Together, these wrecks represent the largest physical remains of ships from the Golden Age of Sail in Nova Scotia. | Allen, Alice Annie (I109)
