Hi Tracy:
Thanks for the death date. Do you know where?
His name isn¹t on the Herald Obit Index so apparently it wasn¹t published
provincial. If I had a death location, it might have been published in a
local newspaper and don¹t mind adding his name to the ³bucket list² and post
my findings.
I checked in the St. George¹s and St. John¹s Anglican Burial records but
they stop just before 1969 although I believe he¹s buried in St. John¹s
Cemetery, Diligent River with his wife.
Thanks
Dave
