    Notes:

    Died:
    ROONEY, Arthur 'DeWitt' Foster — 85, Mount Denson, passed away in Windsor Elms Village on September 19, 2011. Born in Mount Denson on Ja­nuary 14, 1926, he was a son of the late Athlon and Eva (MacDonald) Rooney. Known by his army buddies as 'Micky', DeWitt joined the Canadian Armed Forces during the Second World War and served on the Halifax waterfront assisting with the troop ships upon their return from over­seas. His military career took him to Egypt and Cyprus in 1957 and CFS Alert, Ellesmere Island, in 1969. He was stationed in Debert, Aldershot and finished his career at CFB Halifax retiring in 1977. After retiring from the military, he worked for the De­partment of Transportation in Brook­lyn, Hants Co., until 1987 as a truck driver and snow plow operator. DeWitt would spend hours working in his large vegetable garden before and af­ter he retired; he was famous for the amount of tomatoes he grew and was never timid about trying to plant something out of the ordinary. Neigh­bours, co-workers, family and friends benefited from DeWitt’s bountiful gar­den. Many will remember DeWitt for his apple cider; some fondly while oth­ers not so much. Another passion was wine making, he grew grapes long be­fore it was popular in the Valley to grow them and would make wine from beets, potatoes or many types of ber­ries, if it could be fermented DeWitt would give it a try. He loved going on bus tours to Maine to see Stacey’s Country Jamboree every chance he could and would entertain the others on the bus with his jokes and wonder­ful sense of humour. DeWitt was predeceased by his wife, Jeanne; son, Claude; brother, Sheldon Rooney. Private family in­terment will follow in St. John the Evangelist Parish Cemetery, Windsor.
