Harry Frederick DAVIES — Wolfville Ridge

Age 93, of Wolfville Ridge, passed away peacefully in Valley Regional Hospital on Sunday, January 1, 2023 with family by his side. Born in Hants Border on February 13, 1929, he was a son of the late James and Ola (Lockhart) Davies. In his younger years, Dad enjoyed skating and playing hockey and baseball. He also enjoyed playing the guitar and banjo. Dad learned the value of hard work being raised on a small farm in Hants Border. When the school day was over, he tended to the livestock and vegetable gardens and was responsible for bringing in firewood. Ironically, his love of burning wood to heat his own home led to an unfortunate fall and a fractured hip; however, he didn't get discouraged and vowed he would eventually be back in the woodpile. Dad attended school in Hants Border and Hantsport. He graduated from Hantsport High School and furthered his education, becoming a licensed electrician. He was a very proud tradesman. Dad was employed with H.B.M. Mechanical Limited in Wolfville which provided him and fellow employee Charles O'Leary (deceased) with opportunities to work in various places in Nova Scotia. Both had young families and saw a need for service work in Wolfville and surrounding areas. A decision was made to start their own business. In 1961, Davies & O'Leary Limited was formed and continues to operate today. For 57 years, Dad loved serving his many customers with electrical, plumbing, heating and appliance service. He appreciated each and every customer, working long hours including nights and weekends to provide service. Dad was committed to the trade and his craft. He had a very strong work ethic, which attributed to years of success of doing what he loved. Dad earned the title of being a well-respected tradesman in the area. Dad was never afraid of a challenge. In addition to working long hours with the business, he still found time for extracurricular activities. Dad coached Wolfville Minor Hockey, was involved with the Wolfville Lions Club, enjoyed watching NHL hockey, and loved taking us in his motorboat on the Minas Basin with trips to Boot Island to explore. After he retired, Dad spent many hours working outdoors at his property which brought him so much enjoyment. In addition to his parents, he was predeceased by his brother, Carlton; and sister-in-law, Mildred (King). The family wishes to thank the staff of Valley Regional Hospital for their compassion, kindness and care during his stay.
