General Notes: From "Gage Co. History" Taylor Publishing 978.244 G12c Ca 1983:
"DR . C.E. RICE..
Sunday, September 18, 1949 was a big day for Dr. and Mrs. C.E . Rice of Odell who were honored on 'Appreciation Day' when around twenty-five hundred people gathered at the high school grounds to show their appreciation for them.
Dr. J.C. Waddell of Beatrice then spoke in behalf of the Gage County Medical Society. A response was given by Dr. and Mrs. Rice in appreciation of the thoughtfulness of their friends of the community for the honor bestowed on them.
A picture was also taken of Joyce Mahman of Hollenburg, Kansas the only one
of the tiny triplets born at the hospital in 1939 that lived. Joyce weighed thirty-two ounces at birth and spent five and one half months at the hospital in an incubator.
Dr. Clarence E. Rice was reared on a farm near Orchard, Nebraska. He graduated from High School in the year 1912 and the following two years taught a rural school. He attended York College and later was Superintendent of Schools in Lushton for two years. He entered the University of Nebraska in 1917 and graduated with the Class of 1921. After completing his medical training he located in Odell in January of 1922.
On May 6, 1922 he was married to Irene Dredla of Crete, who had on that same day received her Degree N.R. graduating from the Omaha Methodist School of Nursing.
His first office was upstairs in the Hind's Bank Building. Two years later it was moved to the Hotel Building where it remained for three years.
The Odell General Hospital owned by Dr. Rice was completed in 1929 . Of brick construction, it was pleasing to the eye and thoroughly practical. Occupying a prominent corner on main street, the attractive hospital never failed to draw comments from visitors, surprised at such an institution in a small town. This eleven bed hospital also had a modern surgery, nursery, examining room, supply room, office and waiting room.
Mrs. Rice was the hospital Superintendent.
At first Dr. and Mrs. Rice lived in the hospital, but in 1939 a new wing was added for living quarters, thus leaving all the original building for hospital purposes.
The hospital was equipped with every modern device, and many of Nebraska's leading surgeons have made use of the operating room and other equipment. The number of mothers taking advantage of the hospital was increasing every year. Over two thousand babies had been delivered by Dr. Rice in this community.
Miss Olga Blanke who began work in the hospital in 1929 was housekeeper, operating assistant and x-ray technician. She was known as just Olga to the whole community.
Dr. Rice and Mrs. Rice's only son Lee, a graduate of the University of Omaha, Class of 1949, served his internship at Indiana Medical Center, Indianapolis, Indiana.
The people of Odell and the surrounding community are indeed grateful and fortunate to have had their health's needs taken care of adequately, by Dr. and Mrs. Rice and the Odell General Hospital.
Dr. Rice passed away July 4, 1963, practicing until his death."
Clarence married Irene Blanche Dredla on 6 May 1922 in Omaha, Douglas Co., Nebraska. Irene was born on 30 Dec 1897 in Crete, NE and died on 15 Jun 1989 in Lincoln, Lancaster Co, NE aged 91.

He grew to manhood on his parents farm at Orchard where he received his formal education in the rural schools and Orchard High School.
On March 6, 1918, at Neligh, he was united in marriage with Miss Selma Rabbass of Royal. This couple farmed at Orchard, Royal, and Clearwater. In 1936 they moved into Clearwater where Mr. Rice established the Rice Feed and Trucking business which he operated with his son, Lyle, for many years.
Alva served on the Antelope County Board of Supervisors for 24 years, and was its chairman for a number of years. He also served several terms on the Clearwater Village Board. He was a member of the Concordia Lutheran Church at Clearwater.
Survivors include his wife Selma, of Clearwater, five sons, Virgil and Loren, both of Omaha, Merle of Crete, Delmer of Fremont, and Arlo of Neligh; 13 grandchildren, 20 great grandchildren; two brothers, Roy of Winner, SD, and Lester of Chicago, Ill.

General Notes: "Clearwater Record" Friday June 28, 1935: "Farmer Loses Big Toe - Tuesday of this week Alva Rice was unfortunate in losing one of his big toes. He was chopping with an axe and in some way the axe glanced and cut the big toe on his right foot nearly off. He was brought to town and Dr. Bennie completed the job. That's a tough break Alva and we are hoping you are around again in a short time with no serious affects."
Rumour: In those days the doc would just throw a severed toe out in the back alley. Seems some guys from the local Ford garage then surprised Alvie by mailing the 'toe' back to him.
Alva married Selma Wilhemina Rabbass on 6 Mar 1918 in Neligh, Antelope Co., NE. Selma was born on 17 May 1900 in Wisner, Cuming Co., NE and died on 11 Feb 1995 in Neligh, Antelope Co., NE aged 94.

General Notes: From "LIFE STORY OF ROY RICE WRITTEN IN 1983"...
"I was born November 19, 1901 to George and Mary (Ludwick) Rice, who lived on a rented farm two miles east and a half mile north of Orchard, Nebraska. Then in 1902 they moved to town for a short time. In 1903 they bought a quarter section of land two miles east of town on what was later Highway #20, which they improved quite well and where we grew up and attended rural school, which was a mile and half east of our place.
I rode a blind Morgan pacer horse to school some days as we had a barn at the rural school house. One noon I rode him to a neighbors place to get some water, he stepped in a hole - off I went over his head - then he come on and stepped on me skinning and bruising me up pretty bad.
We depended on horses for farming and transportation, too, in those days. We generally had one or two horses for riding or driving - were real proud when we got a new two seat spring wagon and could go to church on Sundays in town.
My Dad would sometimes stay home while the rest of us went to Church, and have a good dinner ready when we got back. He could bake a good cake - not from a package either. He was a good cook too.
There were six of us boys so we had some pretty good fights. So Da d in order to keep us from getting bruised up too bad bought a couple pairs of boxing gloves and saw to it we put them on till we cooled off.
We played a lot of baseball, in school and out. Each of us had certain chores to do. Some of us would take care of the horses and some would help Dad with the milking while Mother got breakfast. She was quite provoked when she caught us playing ball behind the barn while Dad was milking and she was waiting on us to come to eat.
In those early years on the farm we would take some of the earliest picked corn to the Hering Mill to have it ground for corn meal. Also wheat, which the miller would take out so much for making flour. We would come home with flour and corn meal that would last most of the year. I helped rebuild the washed out Hering Mill race in 1918.
We attended High School in Orchard, walked or jogged it each day two miles, which kept us in good condition. Had good baseball and basketball teams - took second place in our class in the Lincoln tournament one year. Then I played with the Norfolk business college one season.
In 1921 I had to miss a year of school as my oldest brother, Clarence, was finishing Medical School and I was needed at home to help with the farm work. My folks had to sell one quarter of land that year to help him through school and to pay costly doctor bills for my brother, Lewis, who died his eleventh year.
After finishing High School in 1922, I worked at home and for a nea r neighbor for three years. It was a pleasure to work for Mr. Smythe as he had big spirited horses and good equipment and I could do good field work. He remarked to my Dad that he could take his rifle and shoot the tassel off every stalk of corn in an eighty rod row. I think he exaggerated somewhat.
I attended the Norfolk Business College in 1922, which helped me considerably in later life.
On July 19, 1925 Oma Lushbough and I, who had been going together for two or three years, decided we could tolerate each other on a permanent basis so we were married in her home on a very hot Sunday afternoon between two Chautauqua programs. The next day we cut cockleburs out of the corn rows. (Some honeymoon!!)
We lived with Oma's sister, Hazel, in Orchard driving to the farm most everyday till Spring. Then my Mother, who had (with her sister ) inherited Grandpa Ludwick's quarter section of land west of Colome, S.D., near McNeely Grove, decided to buy her Sister's share if we would move on the place. So we agreed to give it a try.
Grandpa Ludwick was a Civil War veteran and drew number for allotment when the area was opened up for settlement. He raised purebred horses on the farm, and we would spend the winter months with my Mother and her sister till spring opened up, then go back to the farm. He was injured in the War, and had a hunch on his side from bayonet charge. He had Rheumatiz, which I massaged with olive oil each night before his going to bed.
We pioneered to the farm near McNeely Townsite, which had been laid out for a town and had started business places, but they were soon abandoned when the railroad was rerouted to go to Winner direct from Colome.
We had very little to start with - a team of horses, four milk cows that I
led behind the flat rack from Orchard. Got along good until I would come to a bridge - then the cows would balk and I would have to nearly drag them across. Made the 135 miles in five days. Oma drove up in the Model T coupe - took her about 5 hours as the roads were not surfaced then and pretty sandy in between Spencer and O'Neill.
There was a creek just about a block south of the house on the farm. So we plowed up a garden spot between the house and the creek and raised all kinds of vegetables and potatoes and sold some.
Soon after we arrived at the farm, friends of Oma's parents came out from Dallas, S.D. to help us get settled. He was a carpenter. We decided to move the outhouse to a different location so put skids under it and hitched the gentlest horse to it, and when he saw that coming behind him, he got so scared he reared up and come over backward lighting on the harness hames dead as a doornail. I didn't know horses had heart attacks.
There we were with only one horse and he couldn't pull the dead one away so we had to borrow a horse from a neighbor, which we later bought. Neighbors were real helpful in those early days. Especially the Spark's family, who lived less than a mile from us, and helped us so much in getting started. The grasshopper scourge and the black cloud dust storm days were a real challenge to us and most everyone else. But we came through and had better times soon.
Our three children attended the country school, which was a couple of miles from home. They had good teachers, who were paid 40 to 60 dollars a month, and were paid in warrants which were discounted if they could find a buyer. I served on the school board, Township board, and was Township assessor one year while on the farm.
In the McNeely area there is a lot of sub-irrigated land. So we got stuck
many times before we learned where we could go and where we couldn't.
The four milk cows bought most of our groceries till fall. Then we cut hay early and took one load to Gregory at $20.00 a ton. Then later baled some more and sent it down to the drayman there. Hay and pasture were good in that area.
We baled hay most every year. Some going to Fort Robinson for Calvary horses, and one year we shipped several carloads to a dairy in Indiana. We put up a couple hundred tons of hay each year as we were able to rent three more quarters adjoining ours.
We soon got into the dairy business, starting with those four cows. We sold cream the first years. Still talk of the time we took a 5 gallon can of cream to Winner, got $3.33 for the cream, went over to the Outlaw Store, and groceries for the week came to exactly $3.33. No tax in those early days.
After a few years we built up our dairy herd to 25 to 30 head. So sold bulk milk to Sawyer's Dairy, and sweet cream to Rawsons Ice Cream Plant, which they used for ice cream bars. Bad roads gave us trouble in the winter. One whole week when it snowed so much we couldn't get to town because of drifted roads, we had to dump the milk.
Soon after pheasants were introduced to our area, we had some real good hunting seasons. No restrictions like now. Our relatives would come and we would have meat for most of the winter. That soon became commercialized and spoiled for the local people.
The government had a ranch program after the dust storm and depression days which we were reluctant to try for, but were persuaded to try for it. We had the minimum of 640 acres in our unit, which met the requirements as explained to us. So when fall came and others were getting their checks, I went in to find out about ours. They said we had not qualified as we needed a building site in addition to the 640 acres. Farm programs had no appeal to us after that.
For recreation we had house dances and card parties, which were usually on Saturday nights, and sometimes lasted till the wee hours. We went to the Methodist Church in Colome. Then after church the kids really liked to go to Thompsons Drug Store for ice cream sundaes, then to a ball game.
We lost our first child in 1926, then another in 1928. Doctor Carmack was our Doctor and Mable Read was his nurse then. Our other three children, Bernard born in 1927, Doreen in 1929, and Leona in 1931, all enjoyed their early years on the farm.
In the fall of 1943 we decided to move to Winner, leaving the farm mainly because of school as the three children would soon be in High School. I kept my tractor and haying machinery and did custom work and farmed a little. Then took a part-time job as City Assessor, which lasted seven years.
In 1949 our son, Bernard, who was 21 years old and was getting started in the trucking business, was killed in an airplane accident near Bonesteel. He had flown to Sioux City for truck repairs and as it was getting dark he decided to land in Bonesteel and come on home in the morning. When getting ready to come home, he struck a power line and the plane exploded and he was badly burned. That was a sad event in our family as he left Catherine, his wife, and Helen, a daughter, and son, Alan, who was born soon after that.
In 1947 I started a lumber yard in east Winner, known as Gilbert of Winner, sold lower grades of lumber, then branched off into the oil business . In 1955 when the County Assessment law went into effect, as I had been City Assessor, the County Board persuaded me to stay on as County Assessor. It was a rough job that year setting up the system with insufficient help and small budget. I refused the second year so they hired Mr. Fawkes from Madison, S.D., who stayed on three or four years till his health failed and he passed away.
The Commissioners called me in again in 1960, and I was in the offi ce for eleven years, then decided to retire. That got rather boresome, so I took part-time work inspecting bridges for the County the next summer.
In 1973 the nursing home, which is just across the road from us, needed a maintenance man. I advanced in that job to Superintendent of seating
arrangements, which was still fixing toilet seats. There are many things to keep in working order, and after 8 years there, I retired again. Now have two apartments which I look after when the Gregors are gone, as they travel quite a lot since they leased out the home in 1981.
We have been Senior Citizens since 1973, and have been on the official board most of the time since, and have been on the State Board several years in different capacities. Helped build the new Senior Center in 1975-76. Attend most of the activities there - pool, cards and parties. Also try to have a good garden. We still like to dance and try to hit the waltzes and polkas. We visited most of our relatives this year 1983."

School's Senior Senior Marks Town's Changes BY TODD VON KAMPEN, Staff Writer WORLD-HERALD.
"It's a rare year when Roy Rice doesn't go home to Orchard, Neb., for the all-class reunion at the school where he met his wife and had a role in the school's best run at a state basketball championship - both 77 years ago.
He's planning to be there again today after a two-year absence. But the 97-year-old Rice, who left Antelope County for South Dakota in 1926, isn't sure he likes the idea of being Orchard High School's oldest living graduate.
"I think I will (enjoy it), but I'll probably be disappointed that there won't be anyone from my class," Rice said from his home in Winner , S.D. "The last time I went, there were only three, and the other two were ill and weren't able to come."
His daughter and son-in-law, Leona and Richard Jacobs, will drive from Sioux City, Iowa, to pick him up. But Rice doesn't need much help otherwise. He lives on his own - his wife, Oma, died five years ago - and gets around without a cane despite some knee trouble.
"When you get my age, you live moderately," he said. "You don't go to any extremes."
Rice has always been resilient, said Richard Jacobs, who remembers finding him "sitting up watching basketball" right after open-heart surgery in 1991 in Sioux Falls, S.D. He described his father-in-law as " what we used to refer to as a gentleman" - someone who always speaks softly and never has used a swear word.
"If everybody was like Roy, we'd have a lot less trouble in the world ," Jacobs said.
Rice probably will be recognized as Orchard High's oldest graduate during the 60th annual alumni banquet tonight, said event organizer Kay Williamson. About 265 people were expected to come from as far away as California and Hawaii for the event, which included informal get-togethers Friday and Saturday.
... But Rice's senior year of 1921-22 was full of memories. He played center on Orchard's basketball team, which went to the state tournament in Lincoln that year and rolled through three rounds of the Class M bracket, downing Grant, Creston and Orleans.
"We thought we had a cinch on winning first place," he said. But Ashland stopped Orchard's run, winning the final, 11-8.
... He remains a fixture at the Tripp County Senior Citizens Center, which he helped build and where he eats meals and occasionally shoots pool. And he stays in touch with the world by reading - "Reader's Digest , big print, that's my favorite" - and watching C-SPAN "from 8 o'clock in the morning to 10 at night," as son-in-law Jacobs put it.
"If it wasn't for my TV and reading, I don't know what I'd do," Rice said. "Probably go nuts."

Survivors include his wife, son Jim of Osmond; sister Genevieve Pochop of Norfolk; four grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents and two brothers."
General Notes: Stella (Earl's mother) had to write a letter of approval for Earl to get into the Army, because at the time he was only 17 years of age. On December 15, 1926 the Army wrote back to her:
"Dear Madam;
Your letter dated 12-14-26, received this date and will say that I am very glad indeed that you have given your sons enlistment in the service some thought and consideration and I am sure that you will be very proud when you have the opportunity of seeing him again and come to know just what the service means to any ambitious young man and I am hoping to receive the age certificate at an early date properly signed and I am sure that you will never regret same.
In regards to work, I will say that the kind of what we call work, each soldier has to do, is the kind that is inspiring and educational, the kind of work that causes a young man to settle down and know just what it means to accomplish things and make better citizens and better Americans out of them and form a foundation on which to build if they decide to leave the service.
Now your son can enlist for a period of one year if he wishes to do so and there is no doubt in my mind but what he will be glad to conform to your ideas and I will notify the Authorities at our main office 15th and Dodge Street, Omaha, Nebr. that you want your son to enlist for a period of one year only and you need not hesitate in signing the papers you have for the Government will surely be more than glad to have the young man enlist for one year if it is your desire.
And he will be stationed at Omaha, Nebraska the duration of his enlistment and it would be a nice thing if you could pay him a visit and see for yourself just what he has to do and also see how well he will get along.
Trusting that you will sign properly and forward to this office the age certificate you have in order that your son can be getting paid and it will be very much appreciated by this office and also your son.
Very truly yours,
Arthur Aberrantly,
Corporal DEML. RS.
In charge of station."
Stella did sign the papers, and Earl was in the Army at the age of 17 years.

Death Notes: 30 March 2010 - update
"Given the prognosis last January, it would be understandable that you might open this e-mail with some trepidation. This is not that e-mail. It is an attempt to belatedly do as promised and keep you apprised of Dad's condition.
First and foremost the past two months have highlighted what extraordinary good judgement Dad seems to have exercised when selecting his friends. On hearing of his condition, many of you arranged to visit… some in large groups, some in small, some for a longer time, others more briefly. Those that have not been able to come personally have called, sent e-mail or, befitting the habits of an earlier time, sent card and letters. The result has been a rich, diverse and on-going expression of concern, friendship and support. Few days have passed without some form of contact from one or more friends checking in on how he is doing.
When asked that question directly, it has been his habit for many years to enthusiastically answer "Very well, thank-you" or words to that effect. His inclination to do so is largely undiminished although his capacity to express it is sometimes compressed to a wave, a smile or a nod of the head. His mind exercises less authority over his body than it used to.
The affliction is capricious. Some days he is more responsive; some days less. Mornings are usually slow. He often sleeps late and getting up takes some time. In the jargon of computing, he is experiencing a lengthy boot sequence. Not unreasonable given the damage being done to his main memory. Some days he is very much in the present; able to answer straight-forward questions and make choices. On other days he is more inclined to trust others to make choices for him.
He is also more passive than he used to be. The tumour has damaged his ability to sequence his thoughts \endash to formulate ideas and answer questions. Sorting out a reply takes him longer that we are generally accustomed to and we are all working at the conversational discipline required to give him space to answer.
He is not always able to. He often has trouble keeping his thoughts together long enough to formulate an answer. He loses his place, drifts off, forgets the question. In this, perhaps, his prodigious curiosity works against him by continuously presenting him with something else of interest.
Nevertheless, freed of responsibility for maintaining the conversational thread, he continues to enjoy good discussion, fast wit and interesting ideas. His ability to contribute is impaired but his ability to participate remains. His gaze, his attention and his demeanour reinforce that he is engaged . He laughs appropriately and often and, on rare occasions, says something funny himself.
Physically speaking, as cancers go, this has, so far, been a relatively smooth ride. Aside from some relatively minor medical challenges, his body has been holding up reasonably well. There has been little pain and, uncommonly for a brain tumour, no headaches. The most serious condition is a progressive weakening of his legs that is now beginning to seriously limit his mobility.
We have managed some field trips over the past few weeks. Dad and I made it to an Olympic event. We have driven the new Sea-to-Sky and taken him out to restaurants and museums. Walks up the block, though tiring, are still possible.
Many of you have asked how aware he is of his own situation. That is difficult to answer. He has always had a pragmatic and stoic disposition. One would expect him to simply accept the situation and get on with dealing with it and that, in fact, is what he has done. But there is also evidence that the same impairment that distorts his thinking also disrupts his ability to appreciate the eventual implications of the tumour. If you're going to experience mental impairment, this would seem to be a pretty good side effect.
So, how is he doing?
Eight weeks after being given that long to live, he is still an active participant in the world. While he has a diminished capacity to communicate, his mental acuity is often sharp and there are few signs of dementia. He is often in communication with, and the presence of, family and friends. He is not in pain nor, apparently, overly distressed about his situation. In short, all things considered, he is doing well.
Which is, of course, what he will tell you if you ask; although perhaps with just a smile and an inclination of his head."
Lance
29 May 2010 - Let the celebration begin
"The end came swiftly.
On Thursday he was hungry enough to eat a large lunch and dinner, and that afternoon, felt strong enough to be moved to the sitting room. He was expressive, alert and in the present. He passed the evening eating slivers of dark chocolate and smiling at his grandchildren.
But on his way to bed something broke. There was little warning and few signs of distress. In a few short minutes he was gone.
Realistically, not unexpected.
But the present still reverberates with the collapse of the vacuum left by his departure.
We will gather to celebrate who he was and what he meant.
And you will be welcome to attend.
Thank-you all, again, for your support."

Death Notes: Obit: BALCOM, Captain Thomas S.
Captain Thomas S. Balcom, a longtime resident of Melrose, Mass., passed away peacefully in Genesis Wakefield Center on Saturday, May 13, 2017, at age 85. Tom was born in Boston on November 26, 1931, son of the late Thomas M. Balcom and Susan T. (Perry) Balcom Haskell. He was raised in East Boston where he graduated from East Boston High School. He was married in 1954 to Barbara A. Morse and settled in Melrose to raise two children. Tom dedicated himself to his working career as a Merchant Marine USCG Licensed Pilot for Boston Fuel Transportation for over 30 years. Tom took his work seriously, and performed the job of a Pilot with great diligence and care. He received many accolades and several awards for his expertise in safely navigating large tankers into the small Boston harbors. He was cho! sen to pilot the first LNG tanker into Boston Harbor, and was honored to be selected for the annual turnabout of the USS Constitution. After over 30 years of performing the job with great attention, and responding to calls at all hours, Capt. Tom retired and was afforded more time with family and friends. Tom was a member of the Propeller Club, and the SIU (Seafarers International Union) for many years. In his free time, he enjoyed making model ships, and assembled a working model train collection on his front porch for the kids. Although, very diligent in his profession, Tom knew how to have fun and was known to friends as the 'Captain Fun.' He loved his Crown Royal and Coke, and always had a pack of cigarettes to offer. He enjoyed spontaneous trips to Vermont with his wife and children, sometimes embarking in the middle of the night. Tom's first love was the ocean, and in particular the natural landscape and coastline of his family land in Nova Scotia. As a young boy,! every summer he took the train to spend the summer with his ! cousins, aunts, and uncles at the family homestead in Sheet Harbour. Knowing he loved the sea, when Tom was 12 years old, he petitioned President Roosevelt with a letter asking permission to wear the uniform of the United States Navy. He was denied but his love for the ocean, never wavered throughout his life. He purchased seven acres of unspoiled land on a peninsula in Pope's Harbour where he and wife Barbara spent many May through Octobers in retirement. Tom was happiest at 'the Point' looking out over the 100 islands, monitoring the boats, seals, deer, and weather, all at once. Capt. Thomas S. Balcom was the beloved husband of Barbara A. (Morse) Balcom with whom he shared 63 years of marriage. Devoted father of Kathleen 'Kathy' T. Kaplan and her husband Larry of Wilmington; and Thomas S. Balcom, Jr. of Springfield. Proud grandfather of Leia Kaplan and her fiancé Peter Tummino of Lowell. Relatives and friends will gather in honor and remembrance of Tom during visiti! ng hours in Robinson Funeral Home, 809 Main St., Melrose held Tuesday, May 16 from 5-7 p.m., and again today, Wednesday morning at 9 a.m. before leaving in procession to Most Blessed Sacrament Church, 1155 Main St., Wakefield for his Funeral Mass celebrated at 10 a.m. Interment in St. Martin's Cemetery, Nova Scotia.

Death Notes: REARDON, Barbara Evelyn - It is with deep sadness that the family of Barbara Reardon announces her death on October 22, 2008, in the Halifax Infirmary, QEII. A mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, she was an inspiration to her family and everyone she met during her life. Born in Glace Bay on December 8, 1916, she was the daughter of Joseph and Florence (Kinley) McArel. Barbara was educated in Glace Bay, Sydney, and at Margaret Eaton in Toronto. Upon graduation, she taught physical education at Havergal College in Toronto, Crofton House, Vancouver and Halifax Ladies College and maintained contact with many of her former students. During the war, Barbara met and married Henry Reardon who was serving with the Halifax Rifles. Henry went on to become a well known Halifax family doctor. With Barbara's love, support, and tireless devotion to her family, they became a dynamic team involved in politics and the running of a farm operation and golf course in Annapolis Royal. Barbara was proud of her involvement as a member of Nova Scotia's first committee to promote tourism. She was active in her church and community wherever she lived, including Halifax, Annapolis Royal, Bermuda and Sarasota, Fla. She liked nothing better than to be surrounded by her family and their friends. She took a great interest in their activities and easily related to all generations, both young and old. Barbara graciously welcomed people into her home and the warmth of her hospitality was appreciated by all who knew her. She remained interested in the affairs of the world, her country, her province and her community. Barbara was a very resilient woman who faced each challenge thrown her way and effectively adapted to every change in her life's circumstances. Her advice was sought by family and friends. A long-time breast cancer survivor, she provided many women support, encouragement, and strength to help them fight the disease. A woman of many interests, she loved animals, golfed well into her 80s, knit many a sweater, continued to improve her excellent bridge capabilities, and retained links with her beloved Cape Breton. To the end, she maintained her joie de vivre, clarity of thought, immense charm and great beauty. She was predeceased by her husband, Henry, and infant son, Robert Cecil. She is survived by children, Barbara (Warren Smith), David (Carol Snider), Michael (Jane), and Patricia (Brenton Wear); grandchildren, Laura (David Keefe), John and Marc Reardon, and Alexander and Jeremy Snider; great-grandchildren, Ella, Henry and Darcy Keefe; brothers-in-law, Charles and Kenneth Reardon, and sister-in-law, Joyce.

She fell in love with Charlie Reardon, who she married in 1947 and lovingly raised seven children. Mom loved to sing and started her singing career at age four when she sang "Red Sails in the Sunset" on CBC Radio. She continued to pursue a singing career in The Armdale Women's Choir, later singing in church choirs. She was often requested to sing at many family and friends weddings and funerals. She was a devoted Catholic and was a member of the CWL. She dedicated many hours to charitable organizations too many to list. She was a member of the Ashburn Golf Club, Palm Aire Country Club, The Saraguay, and Waegwoltic Club. She was active in many bridge clubs over the years and spent her retirement years between her home in Halifax and her home in Sarasota, Fla. There will be a quiet emptiness in our community, she adored her grandchildren, and she was hospitable to all her family and friends who found comfort in her warmth and kindness. She had a tremendous faith and devoted her life to making everyone she knew feel comfort in her prayers; and generosity and patience in her example.

Death Notes: REARDON, Doris Joyce -(May 15th 1929 - May 26th 2015) It is with deep sadness that the family announces the peaceful passing of Doris Joyce Reardon, 86, of Halifax (Parkland on the Gardens) on May 26, 2015 in the presence of family members. Joyce was a daughter of Albert Hollett (of Burin, N.L.) and Mayme Sophia (Myers) (of Wentworth) and the beloved wife of Kenneth V. Reardon Sr., of Halifax.
A consummate mother with tremendous moral character and strength, as well as simple values, Joyce was always first and foremost a nurturing mother to her family. Growing up in a generation focused on wealth and status, Joyce put all that aside and chose to be, in the words of her family, 'just a beautiful person.' She had no greater passion or priority in life than raising and caring for her family. She practiced sacrifice and selflessness as a way of life, whether it meant foregoing her career to undergo 10 pregnancies in 10 years, or leaving her big city home and her friends and social activities to move to a farm in order to help her youngest girls pursue their dreams of raising horses and riding.
Her love for children and family was unequalled. Whether she spent time taking her children to lessons at the Waeg, chasing them around the beach at Hubbards, cheering them on through school and other events or mucking out the horse stalls at the farm in Scotch Village with her daughters, time spent with her family triumphed all else.
Joyce was a true friend to all and welcomed everyone to her home. In her own way she exemplified and promoted an open-minded and tolerant world. A favorite moment was her singing of 'Let There be Peace on Earth' with the family during gatherings. She tirelessly organized family parties and gatherings, looking for any reason or occasion to unite immediate and related families. She would spend days preparing food, pies, jams and other goodies to feed anyone who arrived.
Family, friends and visitors always received Joyce's unwavering attention. With them, she was engaged, empathetic and genuinely interested in what they had to say. Friends visiting would spend hours sitting in the kitchen or living room talking to her. She was a charismatic person who could talk openly to her children's teenage friends as easily as she could to Queen Elizabeth, whom she met during a royal visit to Windsor, Nova Scotia in 1976. Joyce was also a loving and caring soul who readily showed her affection whenever she greeted family and friends. She always welcomed them with hugs and kisses and made a point of ending every conversation or visit with 'I love you.'
Joyce was born on May 15, 1929 in Halifax. A graduate of Halifax's Queen Elizabeth High School in 1947, she worked briefly as a dental assistant before marrying her one true love, Ken, in 1952 and beginning their family. Only her love for her high school sweetheart, Ken, surpassed her love for family. Joyce and Ken spent 70 wonderful years together, 63 of those married. Ken's fondest memories still include kissing her and, more recently, being by her side at Parkland and just holding hands.
As a young couple, they enjoyed friends in many Halifax social circles, loved dancing and wowed many a teenager at their children's house parties with renditions of the jive and the jitterbug. As their children aged, Joyce and Ken travelled regularly to Bermuda and in retirement spent many years wintering in Florida along with frequently travelling elsewhere to international tennis events, where Ken represented Canada on senior national teams.
Joyce was also an avid sports enthusiast and athlete. She was a former provincial basketball champion with the Halifax Blue Cagettes as well as an accomplished tennis player and curler as a young adult. Her children followed in her footsteps, going on to represent Nova Scotia and Canada in a wide range of sports at provincial, national and international events. Joyce enjoyed following professional sports and loved spending evenings with family and friends cheering for Michael Jordan, Roger Federer, Wayne Gretzky and, more recently, Sidney Crosby, who was born on the same day as one of her granddaughters. She regularly attended the Rogers Cup Tennis Championships in Ontario and Quebec with Ken and family members. She also made a point of attending professional basketball and hockey games whenever the opportunity arose.
Joyce enjoyed spending quiet time in her sunroom watching sports on TV and doing crossword puzzles or playing cards with Ken. She also loved to garden and walk or play with the dogs and other animals at the farm in Scotch Village and later at her daughter's home in Enfield.
Born into the Anglican Church, Joyce became a devout Catholic and the family 's spiritual leader after marrying Ken. She was actively involved with several parishes through her life as the family relocated within the Halifax and Windsor areas and Florida. These included St. Michaels (Spryfield), St. Agnes, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. John The Evangelist (Windsor), St. Clements (Dartmouth), St. Bernard (Enfield) and St. Martha's in Sarasota, Fla. Her spirituality and faith had a strong influence on the values of her family and provided her with the inner strength to overcome cancer and other emotional and health challenges. In 1977 doctors diagnosed Joyce with pancreatic cancer and gave her only a few months to live. As her physical strength waned she showed an amazing will to survive, recover and overcome the cancer, as well as several other traumatic events in her later years. Joyce lived to welcome 22 grandchildren and 28 great-grandchildren into this world over the next 38 years. She endured to ensure she was here for most of her children's adult life. Our family could not have been more blessed.
Joyce never stopped giving. She donated regularly to the church and as a cancer survivor herself sought to improve the lives of others with regular donations to charities such as the Canadian Cancer Society, Heart and Stroke Foundation, MS Society and the QEII Foundation.
Joyce is survived by husband, Ken Reardon Sr.; her six daughters, Debbie Lawrence (Dave), Judy Dauphinee (Alan), Carol Reardon, Kathy McDonah (Stephen), Linda Reardon Peverill, Paula Reardon; and her two sons, Ken Reardon Jr. (Cindy) and Terry Reardon (Rhonda). She is also survived by her sister, Shirley Marowitch; 21 grandchildren; 28 great-grandchildren; many nieces and nephews; and brother-inlaw, Charles Reardon. She was predeceased by her grandson, Peter Strong; her sister, Constance 'Connie' Grimes; brother, Don Hollett; and son-in-law, Larry Peverill.
The family wishes to extend a special thanks to Dr. Laurie Mallory and Path Clinic staff as well as Dr. Valerie Lewis, nursing and operations staff at Parkland on the Gardens and private caregiver specialist Glenda Hibbs, for their care, support and friendship through Joyce's last few years.

August 6, 1928 August 11, 2017.
Kay's family celebrates the life she loved. She started her life overlooking the beautiful view of Oyster Pond, in Halifax County. Her parents were Byron and Winnifred Mitchell. She graduated from Halifax Business College where she studied accounting. This lead to a job with the Royal Bank of Canada. From there, she went to Montreal as a financial advisor with the bank. She transferred to a bank in Greenland, where she met her husband, Jack, who was stationed there with the United States Air Force. She lived with him in Germany, Cape Cod, Netherlands, and England, as well as several states. They always returned to Cape Cod, making Falmouth their home.
One of her greatest loves was to travel, which she did extensively. She went all across Canada and the United States, as well as all over Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
Kay volunteered with the Red Cross for 31 years. She served at Falmouth's 'Around the Table' for 13 years and volunteered with the IRS doing taxes at Falmouth's Service Center for 18 years.
Kay is survived by her daughter, Michele Sheridan and her husband Jack Anderson of Centerville, Mass.; daughter, Jacqueline Clauson and her husband Alfred of Nokomis, Fla.; daughter, Nicole Wilson and her husband Mark of Woburn, Mass.; grandson and daughter-in-law, Kevin Sheridan and Robin Jacks, granddaughter, Cameron Clauson, and granddaughter, Cecelia Wilson.
She also leaves her brother, John Mitchell and wife Adele of Halifax; her sister, Margaret Roberts and husband Fred of Dartmouth; her sister, Ethel Myers of Glenburnie, Ont.; and her sister, Francis Vining of San Diego, Calif.; as well as many nieces and nephews.
Kay enjoyed the company of several cats throughout the course of her life and took great pleasure in their company.
As her daughters, along with her extended family and many friends, we will always remember her spirit of independence and adventure, her graciousness in all situations, her ability to see the good in everything, her interest in the world, and the humor and light she brought to every single moment. We are extraordinarily grateful and will carry this legacy forward.
We wish to extend our sincere thanks to Falmouth Hospital, JML Care Center, and the VNA Hospice of Cape Cod for the excellent compassionate care that our mother received.
In lieu of flowers, people are invited to make donations to Falmouth People for Cats, Falmouth Around the Table, or the charity of their choice.

A word or two: Fitting tribute
There still are many residents of the South Shore area who remember Jamie MacLeod, a former manager of radio station CKBW in Bridgewater who, on Monday, was inducted into the Canadian Broadcast Hall of Fame.
It was a belated tribute because Mr. MacLeod died three years ago. Nevertheless, it is a well-merited honour, which will ensure perpetuation of the memory of one who contributed significantly to broadcasting in Canada.
He was one of nine inducted this year during the annual convention in Montreal of the Canadian Association of Broadcasters. That brings the total to 157 of those so honoured since the Hall of Fame was instituted in 1982 as a recognition of those whose work, from a
material or humanitarian point of view, helped raise the standards of the broadcasting industry in Canada.
Mr. MacLeod is well deserving of the recognition. As general manager of CKBW radio in Bridgewater, a position from which he retired in 1989, he brought the station to prominence as an information and entertainment factor on the South Shore. It was a role richly enhanced by his business abilities and his gentlemanly characteristics.
Jamie MacLeod was one of those personalities whom it was always a pleasure to meet and whose very presence in a town was a contribution to that community's dignity and well-being.

4073. Mary Adelaide Balcom was born on 13 Sep 1911 in Paradise, Annapolis Co., NS, Canada and died on 30 Mar 2016 in Halifax, NS, Canada aged 104.
Death Notes: Mary Adelaide Corbett 1911-2016
Emerson defined the purpose in life as: "to be useful, to be honourable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well." Mary Adelaide Corbett (Balcom) was born in Paradise, Nova Scotia to Louis and Edith (Troop) Balcom on September 13, 1911 when a loaf of bread cost about five cents. She was the oldest and last living of four children including Burpee (Leona), Bernice (Stuart Thompson) and Firth (Pauline). Mary's father died when the children were young and Mary was very proud of how her mother continued to keep their home and farm running. Mary told stories of playing tennis and going to school, eventually graduating from Teacher's College in Truro. She taught in one-room school houses throughout the Valley that could have fifty or more students spread across all grades.
Probably considered a spinster at the time, she met Walter Corbett while teaching in Kentville. They married August 6, 1948. Theirs was a gentle love story of two teachers who built a life and love for over fifty years. He taught history, she substituted and tutored students. They raised two sons, John (Susan) and Harold (Karin) who turned out alright. Mary was active in the Kentville United Baptist Church and volunteered in the community. She loved to play bridge and always had handiwork sitting by her chair for the rare moments she sat down. She loved ginger chocolates because no one else did making it more likely she'd get her share. Mary cared for Walter's parents and her mother in the family home as they aged. Later, Mary and Walter travelled the world together and spent several winters in Florida. In a time before Facebook and easy e-communication she kept in good contact with friends and family all over the globe and loved to share visits, letters and stories with them.
Mary's family grew to include grandchildren Natalie (Steve) Sampson, Michael (Jennifer) Corbett, Amanda (Ian) Hecht and Sara (Kris) Phaneuf. She loved to have her sons and their families home in the summers and always stocked the freezer with homemade donuts and peanut butter balls. She could make anything in the microwave. Mary and Walter also opened their home to international students attending Acadia University. These men became family and Mary was very proud of their accomplishments and families.
As Walter's health failed they moved to Grandview Manor in Berwick. Mary continued to attend church in Kentville and was proud of her ministry in visiting the 'little old ladies' upstairs (most younger than herself). Showing her perseverance and stubborn streak, she survived the loss of Walter in 1998, bounced back from a hip fracture at 94 and gave up the keys to her beloved Crown Vic on her own terms at 95. Fiercely proud of her independence she lived on her own until 2012 when she was kidnapped and brought to Northwood in Halifax to be closer to family so the great grandchildren could play volleyball with her. True story.
Mary always loved babies. Her straight-laced and prim persona (that fooled no one who knew her) was most quickly melted when a small person was placed in her lap. Even at the end when most of her communication was lost, she demonstrated this in meeting her youngest great granddaughter, Annika. She patted her belly and smiling said, 'baby, baby, baby'. She was Grammie Great to nine others; Aiden and Macy; Caleb, Grace and Noelle; Jack, Elliot, Paxten and her namesake, AnnaWen Mary. How great she was.
Mary loved widely and deeply; her God, her husband and sons, her profession, making trouble and ice cream (maybe most of all). She will be missed more than she could ever realize, but we are happy to see her released from the limitations of age. Over her 104 years and in a million little ways the farm girl from Paradise achieved a great life of use, honour and compassion. She made a difference.
Mary's family wishes to thank the staff members of Grandview Manor and Northwood 6th Central and for their loving and attentive care. We'd also like to thank the loving pastoral care and regular visits provided by Rev. Nelson Metcalfe of First Baptist Halifax and Rev. Renee Clark of Northwood. Family and friends are welcome to visit with us Friday April 15th from 6-8 at The White Family Funeral Home, Kentville, where the funeral service, officiated by Rev. Mandi Hecht, will be held 11:00 am Saturday April 16th with a reception to follow. Mary will be laid to rest beside Walter in Elm Grove Cemetery, Steam Mill after the reception. Memorials are graciously accepted in her name to Kentville United Baptist Church, Canadian Baptist Ministries or a charity of choice. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to the White Family Funeral Home and Cremation Services, Kentville. On-line condolences and inquiries may be directed to www.whitefamilyfuneralhome.com.
Mary married Walter Edward Hiller Corbett, son of George Dunn Corbitt and Annie-Mae O'Neill, on 6 Aug 1947 in Granville Center, Annapolis County, NS. Walter was born on 4 Dec 1907 in Port Lorne, Annapolis Co, NS, Canada and died on 29 Dec 1998 in Berwick, Kings Co., NS aged 91.

On the morning of Sunday, April 30, 2017, Edward Asom Balcom, 97, of Paradise, Annapolis Co. passed away while being attended by the compassionate staff members of the Veteran's Unit of the Soldiers' Memorial Hospital, Middleton, NS.
Edward was born on May 14, 1919 in Paradise, one of eight sons of the late Harry E. Balcom and Emily (Ernst) Balcom of Paradise, NS.
A veteran of World War II, Edward served with the Royal Canadian Air Force (Transport Division) both in Canada and the United Kingdom. Seven of the Balcom sons served their country in the Second World War with Edward and four of his brothers serving Overseas. All returned home safely.
Edward was the last surviving member of his immediate family. Besides his parents, he was predeceased by his loving wife, Hattie Grace (Taylor) Balcom on April 25, 2011, three days before their 69th wedding anniversary; brothers Eugene, Russell, Aubrey, Albert, Donald, Norman, Frank and their spouses.
Edward is survived by his only child, son Edward Eugene Balcom and daughter-in-law, Linda Dale (Hubley) Balcom, Halifax. Edward was loved and comforted by their little Havanese dog, Ty. Toward the latter part of his life, Edward was pleased to have the company of his first and second generation of nieces and nephews and appreciated each and every visit from them. There will be many nieces and nephews that will miss their Uncle Ned.
For 28 years, Edward was employed with Gulf Canada Ltd. as a salesman and plant foreman, retiring in 1983. He and Hattie then retired to Paradise.
Edward got great enjoyment working on small engines. He was well known and appreciated in the Valley Community as someone who could be depended upon for his unquestioned help and service for his handyman advice and skills. Folks came from Yarmouth through to Kentville, just to get Edward to work on their engines. He never turned anyone away and was always able to fix the engines. His kindness was boundless. From morning to night, he loved tinkering in his barn.
Although much smaller, Edward still enjoyed planting a kitchen garden even at the age of 97. He always had a large crop of squash and potatoes, enough to last him the winter, but also sharing with family and neighbours. Edward loved taking in as many flea markets as possible, then used the goods he bought for his own yard sales.
In his younger years, Edward loved to hunt and fish with his brothers and nephew, John. He was so appreciative when nephew, Harry would fly his airplane from Blockhouse to take his Uncle Ned for sightseeing trips.
Edward had a mischievous sense of humour. His absolute delight to tease or play practical jokes was well known as his nieces will attest, especially Joan. He would start with a sly slow grin that would quickly turn to chuckles, then laughter that would last long after everyone else.
Much gave Edward pleasure and enjoyment during his life span. He loved to ride motorcycles; Sunday afternoon drives with Hattie; The Chickenburger; Tim Horton's; grocery shopping; visits from neighbours, nieces and nephews; reading; word seek puzzles; listening to CBC radio; watching the supper hour news; Cindy Day's weather report; watching hockey games; Judge Judy, always respecting her talent and humour; and his favourite breakfast of cornmeal porridge.
Edward was able to live in his home another five years after Hattie's death with lots of help from the caregivers from Annapolis Valley Home Care Ltd, Kingston, NS; especially Pearl, Jennifer and Colleen who became like family. He was fortunate to have the valuable helping hands of his neighbours, Rob and Melissa Roscoe and their children; the Taylor nieces, Anna-Marie and Sheila; Gerald (deceased) and Rose Baltzer; Raymond and Marilyn Gaudet (deceased); the Marshall's; Dr. Goodine; and the staff of the Veteran Unit of the Hospital.

William married Evelyn Beatrice Mayo about 1912. Evelyn was born in 1894 in Barre, VT and died in 1987 in Springfield, Hampden Co, MA aged 93.
Children from this marriage were:
6225 F i. Mildred R. Coleman was born about 1913.
6226 F ii. Evelyn H. Coleman was born about 1915.
6227 M iii. William Henry Coleman Jr. was born about 1917.
6228 F iv. Ruth Coleman was born about 1920.
4159. Ellen 'Nellie' Hazel Coleman was born on 9 Sep 1894 in West Newbury, MA and died in 1970 in Worcester, MA, USA aged 76.
Death Notes: Died in the Park Hill Manor.
General Notes: Was called Nellie most of the time. Was a very fun loving person. Divorced Harold Ashby and married again, but don't remember his name. Then married Frank C. Johnson, and lived in Florida for quite some time. She loved to fish, too. She was a smoker, and can be well remembered for lighting a wooden match from the bottom of her shoe! How we used to laugh. She looked very much like her sister, Daisy, but they really didn't get to know each other until later in life, as they were raised separately when growing up. I thought Nellie was also born in Tusket, N.5., but on receiving a copy of her birth certificate from her daughter, Ruth Ashby Peterson, discovered she was born in Newbury, Mass. Hard to figure that out! She died of cancer at age 76. Her sister, Daisy died of bowel cancer, at age 92, which happened to some of the Balcom family.
I (Helen Briggs-Lonnroth) can remember visiting Aunt Nellie and Uncle Harold and there was an older lady there named Renie! Now I know that she was my grandfather, LeBaron William Coleman's sister! No idea what happened to her, but she must have been with my Aunts, Myrtle and Nellie, and Uncle Bill more, having been raised by their father, LWC.
Ellen married Harold Charles Ashby, son of Charles Ashby and Henrietta Langley, in 1913. Harold was born in 1893 and died in 1956 aged 63.
Children from this marriage were:
6229 M i. Ralph Coleman Ashby was born on 31 Jul 1913.
General Notes: Ralph Coleman Ashby is a very talented person. Has written books, travelled extensively, was in the Merchant Marines during World War II, and at one point during the war, aboard ship, he was aware that his brother's (Frank) ship was close by and they were able to meet with each other in the middle of the ocean. Atlantic, I think. A story told to me, Helen Lonnroth, by Ralph during a visit to his home in Little River, S.C. He plays piano beautifully, and after surgery on his hands, is able to continue with that. He plays chess and has entered many tournaments, and is also an avid golfer and walker at age 90. He and Irene have just enjoyed their 57th anniversary together. They were married the same day as Helen & Bill Lonnroth...May 11, 1946. Helen is cousin of Ralph. He has been a great help in giving me much information about Balcom, Coleman families, etc., which would not have been included without his help. I thank him very much.
Ralph married Irene Helen Jurczenia on 11 May 1946. Irene was born on 22 May 1917 and died on 18 Jan 2004 in Little River, SC aged 86.
6230 F ii. Ruth Evelyn Ashby was born on 3 Jul 1916.
6231 M iii. Frank Charles Ashby was born in 1920 and died in 1960 in New York, NY aged 40.
Ellen next married Unknown Johnson after 1932.
4161. Daisy Belle Coleman was born on 20 Mar 1899 in Tusket, Yarmouth Co., NS and died on 18 Jul 1991 in Mesa, Maricopa Co, AZ aged 92.
General Notes: Daisy Belle Coleman-Briggs was born in Tusket, Nova Scotia, Canada, March 20, 1899. At the age of about 3 years, her parents separated and she was taken by her mother, Mary Wilimina Balcom-Coleman, to live with her grandparents, Frank & Florence Balcom. Daisy wrote about a lot of her life in her brief autobiography to her family, when she was 90 years old which will be included in her section of this Coleman Book.
In following her grandparent's lives, they moved from Tusket, to Wolfville, to Port Williams, perhaps to other places, too. While in Wolfville, Daisy was given piano lessons at the Acadia College there, or by a music professor from the college who came to her home, and played the piano all of her life. She could still "tinkle the ivories" at age 91, which she always did when we held our annual birthday party and family reunions for her.
When they moved to Port Williams, she was 12 years old. Her grandparents bought a boarding house and she kept busy helping with the chores of running it. She was also very active in Port Williams Baptist Church, which was practically across the street, and she sang in the choir, and also sang duets with her best friend, Thelma Gates, and belonged to Christian Endeavor. They were also in plays together. Mom was on the only girls basketball team in Port Williams, with pictures to prove it. Loved the game throughout her life, and was a big fan of Boston Celtic's Larry Bird!!! Her youngest son, Frank, was a super basketball player, and she went to many of his games.
Some of her Aunts and Uncles lived in Port Williams and surrounding towns, so she knew most of them very well, especially her Aunt Viola, who was also active in the Port Williams church and coach of the girl's basketball team. Daisy would baby sit for Aunt Viola's children.
She met Jack Briggs when he came to wire some lights at the boarding house and a romance followed. The boarding house was right beside the Cornwallis River, and there was a bridge built for crossing to the other side right there as well. Mom said they walked across that bridge many times when courting!! She also used to skate on the river and learned to play hockey!
When we visited Port Williams in 2002, with a little imagination we could just picture what went on, as the town hasn't changed much. I could live there, I think. Aunt Viola's house and the boarding house are still standing and being used to this day!

Daisy married John 'Jack' Elwood Briggs, son of John Briggs and Willie Rose Claiborne, on 3 Feb 1920 in Halifax, NS, Canada. John was born on 6 Jul 1899 in Halifax, NS, Canada and died on 12 Jul 1980 in Marion, , IA aged 81.
General Notes: John (Jack) Elwood Briggs was born in Halifax or Wellington Station, Nova Scotia, Canada, July 6, 1899. He went to Truro Agriculture College where he was a good student. He entered at age 16, and also took special courses in mechanics, etc. The college was not as our colleges are now, but people could go for 6 months, to learn a trade, etc., and after 2 years, could get their certificate in that field. In the newsletter for the school, Jack was portrayed as a boxer who would take on anyone no matter his size. Jack was about 5' 6" and a wiry sort of fellow.
About the age of 18, Jack was working on a boat when the world reknowned Halifax explosion happened, but miraculously, he was unharmed. He began work in the telephone company for his Father, John David Briggs, but he and another fellow started a business wiring houses for electricity and lights, etc. They went to Port Williams, to the home of Frank & Florence Balcom, which was a boarding house, and wired some lights there, and that's where he met "beautiful Daisy Belle" Coleman. She lived there with her mother and grandparents. They married in Halifax, N.S. had 2 children there, then moved to Worcester, Massachusetts, U.S.A. They moved 4 times in their lives and had 2 children in each place, all very healthy. Dad worked at New England Power Company, which later was named Massachusetts Electric Company, and was with them for about 40 years. He was a very good provider, and Daisy was the most loveable person, and always a smile on her face. I can remember when floods or tornadoes hit in the Worcester area, Dad would be away from home for 2-3 weeks at a time, restoring electricity to businesses and homes. He was also a fisherman at one time, until he learned to golf, and became a contender and winner in many Central Mass. Golf League matches. He built a little sleeping trailer, and another bigger one, and he would move the family to Sterling, by Lake Waushacum, for the summers. How we hated to leave all our friends, but when loading the trailer, all the neighbors would come out to watch us and wave as we headed down the street, the trailer and car loaded with the whole family. He and Mom helped the people who owned the property and ran a boat rental business and a little store. Dad kept the boats in repair and Mom ran the store. Many wonderful memories for us. All learned to swim as the lake was right out the front door!

4165. Lebaron Ernest "Barry" Coleman 34 was born on 22 Aug 1902 in Fairfield, NB34 and died on 2 Nov 1978 in Kentville, Kings Co., NS, Canada34 aged 76.
Burial Notes: He died at Blanchard Fraser Memorial Hospital and was buried in Elm Grove Cemetery, Kentville, NS.
General Notes: LeBaron E. Coleman is the half brother of William, Ellen, Myrtle and Daisy Coleman. They have the same father, LeBaron William Coleman. LeBaron E., his sisters, Marjorie and Olive, William, Ellen and Myrtle were raised by their Father, but Daisy was raised by her Mother, Mary W. Balcom Coleman, and her grandparents, Frank & Florence Balcom. LeBaron, with Jessie and son John and wife, visited with Daisy & Jack in later years. LeBaron and Jessie wintered in Scottsdale, and Daisy & Jack were in Mesa, AZ. LeBaron followed in his father's footsteps and was an antique dealer and into real estate. He also ran a bingo hall in an old apple warehouse in Kentville. He is buried in Kentville.
Lebaron married Jessie May Banks, daughter of Norris Leslie Banks and Florence "Florrie" Eliza Pooley. Jessie was born on 9 Apr 1906 in Torbrook Mines, Annapolis Co., NS.
General Notes: Reported to be living at 98 on Main Street, Kentville, NS.
Jessie and LeBaron were married about 1924 or 1925 and had 5 children. William died at age 4 years and 10 months of age, and Gordon died at 1 day old. Jessie & LeBaron worked in the boarding house/restaurant for LeBaron's father, and Jessie made many a squirrel and rabbit stew. Bill and I (Helen Lonnroth) visited with Jessie, her daughter Kaye, and Kaye's son & daughter-in-law, Bill and Barbara Clarke in September, 2002. Her home is filled with beautiful antiques from all over the world, and were inherited from LeBaron's father who was an antique dealer, among other things. LeBaron continued on with this profession, and I believe Bill Clarke is going to carry it on in a shop behind the house. They were all very gracious to us, and gave me a family heirloom ... berry bowl and 4 dishes, and also 2 apple blossom cups. The berry bowls have been passed on to Helen's oldest sister's (Mae Cook) daughter, a direct descendant. We have been invited to join the Coleman family to celebrate Jessie's 100th birthday, in 2006. Jessie has a wonderful memory, and we looked through pictures of my grandfather, LeBaron Coleman, and family, as I'd never seen one of him before. I took pictures of some of the pictures to display in my family history books. All good looking people.

General Notes: Gordon grew up in Montreal. He attended Acadia University in Wolfville NS. Anne and I met in Halifax in 1960 and got married just before being transferred to Montreal only to return to Halifax in 1962 where he became Assistant General Manager of the Halifax Board of Trade. In 1965 he was appoined General Manager of The Saint John Board of Trade and in 1970 returned to Halifax as General Manager of the Halifax Board of Trade which at that time was one of the largest Chambers in Canada.
In 1973 they purchased a cottage at Pigott Lake about 35 minutes from home and over the next 15 years it was transformed from a "shell" to a more finished cottage. It was here where the family spent the summer months.
In 1986, Maritime Tel and Tel asked Gordon to join them as a member of their senior management team and to be the Department Head for Public Relations. After five years, the company decided to "outsource" the public relations function and he was appointed Vice President of Corporate Communications while continuing the responsibility for the public relations for MT&T. In 1995, Gordon and Anne decided to move to Wolfville to start a new lifestyle. Wolfville has many advantages. We liked the community and Anne grew up here. Plus it is close enough to Halifax to easily visit.
In 2002 they purchased a home in Florida so they could spend time in warmer climates. In short the years of retirement have been enjoyable and busy for Anne and me. (updated Oct/05)

retiring a few years ago. To them were born four daughters and two sons, one of whom died in infancy. Mrs Kenyon passed away in 1943.
Surviving are the four daughters Mrs Clyde (Hallie) Groharing, Morrison; Mrs Blaine (Hazel) Leavens and Mrs Arnold (Helen) Schiefer, both Oak Park, Mrs Ray (Janet) Morgan of Fulton, and one son Harold at home; six grandchildren, and one brother
Lloyd Kenyon of Mt. Carroll.
Noted events in his life were:
1. Occupation: Farmer.
2. Education: 8th Grade.

Nino married Mary Elizabeth "Bessie" Boyd on 14 Jan 1906 in Argo-Fa, York Twp, Carroll Co, IL. Mary was born on 27 Jul 1880 near Butlerville, Campbell Twp, Jennings Co, IN, died on 9 Nov 1943 in Jane Lamb Hosp, Clinton, IA aged 63, and was buried in Upper York Cem, York Twp, Carroll Co, IL.
General Notes: Mary Elizabeth (Bessie) Boyd always knew when she was growing up in Butlerville, Indiana, that some day she would be a school teacher. She was a good scholar, intent on getting the best education available to her. After graduating from the three
year high school, she learned that a fourth year would be added, and returned for another term. One of her very close friends, and classmates was Hannah Milhaus, whose son Richard Milhaus Nixon would become President of the United States. Family
legend indicates that after high school she may have attended the State Teacher's College at Terre Haute, and received a teacher's certificate. The college's records do not support this. The college would eventually become Indiana State
University. She apparently attended there sometime between1897 and 1899.
Bessie somehow heard of a teaching opportunity in Carroll Co. Illinois; probably through her "Aunt Mollie", Mary Bell (Shields) Bailey. Aunt Mollie was now back in Indiana after having made the trip to Illinois where she met and married Alban J.
Bailey. It could also be that Bessie was drawn to Illinois by Mary Elizabeth (Sharp) Gill, or even her eventual mother-in-law, Mary Rebecca "Mollie" (Gill) Kenyon. The Sharps, some of whom had gone from Pennsylvannia to northwestern Illinois,
and some to southern Indiana, most certainly played a role in this conncection. In the summer of 1900 she and her friend Bertha King set off from North Vernon, Indiana, for Mt Carroll, Illinois. Both of them would seem to have been brave, (if
not daring), well educated women for their time.
Bessie taught the first year at the Bluff School in York Twp, boarding with the Straugh family. She then obtained the teaching position at the Argo-Fa school, and boarded, along with Bertha King, at the Frederick P. Kenyon home. Frederick's
wife, Mary Rebecca (Gill), was of course related to Bessie through the Sharp line. (See Sharp Family). It was then that she met Nino, her future husband. He is recorded as a pupil in her school during the 1901/02 school year. He was 18 and she
21 at the time. She taught for several years in Argo-Fa, returning home to Indiana to spend vacation time. Bertha, however, returned to Indiana after a year or two, married a medical missionary, and left for the Phillipines.
In 1906 Bessie married Nino Roderick Dhu Kenyon. They lived the rest of their life in Argo-Fa. During their early married years, they and their young family lived with Nino's parents on the Kenyon Homestead. Later, a modern house was built
for Frederick and his wife, in which Bessie and Nino later lived during their retirement. Though she retired from school teaching upon her marriage, she was active as a Sunday school teacher all her life.

General Notes: Rusty served in the 33rd Infantry as an army medic in the South Pacific during WW II. His experiences in combat, though seldom discussed, were a psychological burden that he bore with difficulty the rest of his life. The effects of the malaria
and yellow jaundice that he contracted during his service in the tropics caused him to lose his eyesight in his later years. Though it was difficult for him to establish friendships, those that he did were cherished. He was a trueoutdoorsman,
and was an excellent hunter, trapper, andfisherman. Dale Gardner, a young man who had worked for him during the time he was in charge of the drainage districtbetween Thomson and Savanna, became an astronaut. On a picture that he sent to
Rusty after his first trip into space, he inscribed; "It's been a long road from fixing pumps, to fixing satelites." Commander Gardner's was but one life that he gently touched, yet left an impression.
Rusty never married.
