366 Alfred Gardiner Mair
It is with heavy hearts that the family of Alfred Gardiner Mair of Hantsport, announces his passing on Wednesday, February 15, 2023, at the age of 88.

Alfred (known as “Alfie” to his friends), was born October 7, 1934 in the small fishing village of Portsoy, Scotland and was raised in Macduff and Aberdeen. He often reminisced about his childhood adventures such as swimming in the chilly waters of Macduff’s Tarlair Swimming Pool, and climbing cliffs to find bird’s eggs.

At age 15, after finishing school, Alfred took on an apprenticeship as a Turner and Fitter at John M Henderson-Kings Works in Aberdeen where he learned how to manufacture and assemble industrial tools and machine components from metal, a skill that was helpful in his 45-year career in the merchant navy. He started as 7th engineer with Ben Line and worked his way up to chief engineer with a steam and motor ticket. He travelled the world on oil tankers and cargo vessels to the Far East, through the Panama Canal, to Australia and along coastal Europe and beyond. He told us a story of playing a soccer match with shipmates in Antarctica, while King penguins watched “along the sidelines” with fascination. It was on his travels to Hamburg, Germany, where he met his beloved wife of 65 years, Ingeborg (Frank). In 1972 Alfred emigrated with his family to Nova Scotia to join the Fundy Gypsum Company. He later worked in the Great Lakes, with Halco Co Ltd., Misener, Upper Lakes Shipping Co.; retiring at age 65 with Algoma.

We will fondly remember Dad/Grampy for his Doric Scottish sayings, limericks, quick wit and his soft heart for the “little birdies” and nature. He had excellent hand eye coordination and was a “dab hand” at darts, pool and table tennis. He enjoyed his daily crossword and was an avid sports fan, who loved his “fitba” (soccer), golf, curling and his Blue Jays and Leafs.

Freddy, as he was lovingly referred to by his siblings, was the youngest of the late Alexander and Catherine (Wood) Mair’s eight children: Alexander, Magnus, Isabella, Margaret, William, James and Irene. Cheerio… Alfred… Alfie… Dad… Uncle… Grampy. You will be greatly missed, but we will always hold you close, within our hearts.

A graveside service will be held in Riverbank Cemetery, Hantsport, at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Alfred may be made to Hants Community Hospital Foundation, 89 Payzant Dr., Windsor, NS B0N 2T0; Macduff Lifeboat Station, Bankhead, Macduff, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, AB44 1RD; RNLI Lifeboats at: rnli.org/support-us ; Friends of Tarlair Pool (restoration project) at: friendsoftarlair.co.uk; or a charity of one’s choice.

367 ALICE WYMAN LOVE 1927 - 2020 Our Mom passed peacefully in her home at Staywell Manor, Calgary, Alberta, on October 10, 2020, following a battle with cancer. Alice was born in Bromptonville, Quebec, the third of four children, and grew up in Hantsport, Nova Scotia. In 1948, she graduated from Acadia University with a Degree in Biology and worked as a researcher with Nova Scotia Fisheries and then as a high school science teacher. After marrying, she moved to Calgary in 1951, where she lived for the remainder of her life with a one year sabbatical in London, England where she bravely learned to drive on the "wrong side of the road." Mom went back to school in the 1980s and completed a medical secretary's certificate and then worked as an assistant in her daughter Nancy's busy family medical practice for many years. She was known for the special care and attention she gave to each patient. Nancy would often joke that patients came to the office to see Alice rather than the doctor. First and foremost, Alice was a dedicated and loving mother. She was the rock at home and took great pride in her four children and their accomplishments. She especially loved her role as a Grandma and grew very close to all six grandchildren, including those in Europe, as trips to Switzerland were an annual event for Mom. In later years she was blessed with five great-grandchildren who provided her with joy and delight. Mom instilled in the family the importance of family bonds which we all cherish and this gave her comfort in her final days. She was very active in the Samaritan Club of Calgary for several decades. She was always willing to lend a hand and help others. She enjoyed reading, playing bridge, sewing at Christmas time and knitting. Mom was known as a wonderful host and threw many beautiful dinner parties over the years. The words 'lovely', 'kind' and 'gracious' are often used to describe Alice. She had many close friends throughout her life and treasured those relationships. Mom was predeceased by her mother and father, Violet (Briggs) and Clifford Wyman of Toronto, Ontario; her husband, Richey Love of Calgary; two of her siblings, Cliff Wyman Jr. (and his wife Ruby) and Shirley Murray (and her husband Mac) both of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia; her sister-in-law, Rita Wyman of Calgary; her sister-in-law, Nancy Brown (née Love) of Lennoxville, Quebec; and her brother-in-law, Stewart Love of Knoxville, Tennessee. Wyman, Alice (I7698)

390 Anna Marie Mosher (Rehberg) April 1st 1958 - November 16th 2022

It is with deep sorrow and a heavy heart to announce the passing of our dear mother, grandmother, sister, and wife, Anna Marie Mosher (Rehberg). Who passed away peacefully at home surrounded by family on November 16,2022

Anna grew up in Hants County. She worked for Lawtons Drugs for many years and then for The Windsor Elms Village for over 20 years until she retired in 2019. Everyone will always remember Anna's spunk and charisma. She brought joy to those around her everyday, especially during the holidays with her exquisite knack for decor. Decorating her home brought her tremendous joy and she also made her unit at The Elms feel like home with all her talent for the residents and staff. In the years between these two places of work she took a part time position with Anne and Graham Day of Hantsport. She kept this position up until she was physically no longer able to maintain it. She did this because Anne and Graham became fast friends that turned into family.

Anna was known for her large family that she loved even more than its size. To Anna, family didn't have to be blood she loved with her whole heart regardless of traditionalism. She was loyal to a fault at times and would help anyone in need. She was selfless in nature and this is the quality that drew her soulmate Ron Mosher to her. For 23 years they built a happy home and life together in Hantsport. In Anna's free time you could find her playing Bingo, cards, and bargaining for a deal at a local yard sale. Her favourite activity was the family camping trips that were taken every year, her grandchildren will forever remember all the fun she would bring to them.

Anna is predeceased by her mother, Mary Jean and father, Gregory; sister Marlene; brother Granville Rehberg; brother-in-law Rick Sargent; and nephew Jason Waddell.

Visiting hours will be held on Monday, November 21st from 6-8 p.m. in the Lindsay Windsor Funeral Home, 194 King Street, Windsor, NS, B0N 2T0.

392 Anthony David \"Tony\" Blue – 47, of New Minas, passed away Thursday, February 2, 2017 in the QEII Health Sciences Centre, Halifax. Born in Halifax, he was a son of Wendy Dorothy (Little) Blue, Hantsport and the late Alexander David \"Dave\" Blue. In his younger years, Tony took great pride in playing basketball and soccer, playing for the Hantsport Hawks up until the time he graduated and attended Horton District High School. He then played soccer for the Horton Griffins for a year before going to UCCB and playing for them. He played many sports up until his children came along. They are quite possibly his greatest achievement. He was so proud of them as they grew up into two amazing young adults. In recent years, Tony got back into soccer, playing with Paddy’s Pub Soccer Club and renewing old friendships and making new ones. He also enjoyed, throughout the years, playing softball with the Webster’s Misfits and making friendships on that team to last a lifetime. He had been employed as a Produce Specialist with Sobeys Inc. in Windsor prior to working with Crown Fibre Tube, Kentville. In addition to his father, he was predeceased by his brother, Marc. Burial will take place in the River Bank Cemetery, Hantsport.  Blue, Anthony David (I2849)
