1930 - 2021  (91 years)

• Name	Howard Burton Connors
  Nickname	Howie
  Birth	1930	Poplar Grove, Hants, Nova Scotia
  Gender	Male
  Death	15 Jan 2021  [1]
  	The children of Howard Burton Connors are saddened to report his passing on Friday, January 15, 2021 at age 90. Howie was born in Poplar Grove, the youngest son to the late John Ira and Ruby Bell (Fisher) Connors. He began working and living on farms at the age of 11, settling outside of Hantsport with Betty in 1949 and working the next 40 years at the Minas Basin where he learned the millwright trade. To his kids he was the first MacGyver we knew, with creative fixes for every problem. He was quick to laugh, quick to help others and an inspiration to work hard and enjoy the simple things in life. If you would like to celebrate Dad’s life, work a hard day, drink a cold beer, laugh with those close to you and love your family. He was predeceased by his wife of almost 70 years, the former Betty Morgan. Arrangements for cremation have been entrusted to DeMont Family Funeral Home & Cremation Service.
