Age 93 of Mount Denson, passed away peacefully Tuesday, November 9, 2021 in Hants Community Hospital, Windsor. Born in Halifax, on April 29, 1928 to Charles and Ethel (Gates) Goldsmith, he was the last surviving member of his immediate family. Besides his parents, Frank was predeceased by his wife, Barbara “Barb” (Peach) (2019); brother, John Goldsmith; sisters, Olive Campbell and Florence Paul. As a young man, while working on the gypsum boats, Frank met the love of his life, Barb and together they went into farming, where he raised his cattle and tended his crops. He had a successful strawberry u-pick for several years that he was always proud of. Holding down more then one job at a time always kept him busy. Dad obtained his Stationary Engineering Degree and worked for Nova Scotia Light and Power at Tufts Cove for several years and after many moves, finished his career as an Engineer First Class at Acadia University. In his later years when he slowed down, his greatest joy was his great-grandchildren, Seth and Lily. Arrangements have been entrusted to DeMont Family Funeral Home & Cremation Service, 419 Albert St., Windsor (902-798-8317). There will be no visitation or funeral service by request. Burial will be held in Mount Denson Community Cemetery.

Douglas Charles "Doug" GOLDSMITH — Mount Denson
It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of our brother, Doug, of Mount Denson, on Saturday, May 28, 2022 in the VG Site, QEII, Halifax. Born on September 19, 1959, in Windsor, he was a son of the late Frank and Barbara “Barb” (Peach) Goldsmith. Doug worked at Minas Basin Pulp and Power for 32 years until they shut down and he finished his working career at Acadia University. Always being community minded, he belonged to various service groups over the years. He was a “Big Brother”, he was a Lion’s Club member and most recently, he belonged to the Windsor Legion. He was also a lifelong blood donor. His service did not stop there, he helped anyone who asked. He could often be found helping a friend pile wood, shovel snow or mowing a neighbor’s lawn. Doug’s greatest love was his family and friends. We would like to thank Darren and Bonnie for their tireless devotion to him, staying by his side as he neared the end of his journey. We would like to thank Dr. Ednie and his team for all the care and compassion they gave to Doug and to our family. Thank you to Dr. Hewitt and the palliative care team for everything they did to provide comfort and care. To all the wonderful nurses on 5B and 6B at the VG who cared for Doug and us, thank you. As Doug has started a new journey, we take comfort in knowing that someday, in heaven, our family will be reunited and our hearts will be whole again. A private burial will be held in Mount Denson Community Cemetery. A public reception will be held in the lower level of the Royal Canadian Legion, Hants Co. Branch 009, 35 Empire Lane, Windsor, on Friday, June 3rd from 1-3 p.m., masks are encouraged. Donations in Doug’s memory may be made to QEII Health Sciences Centre Foundation, 5657 Spring Garden Rd. Suite 3005, Halifax, NS B3J 3R4 or to Royal Canadian Legion, Hants County Branch 009, PO Box 28, Windsor, NS B0N 2T0.
