Fred will be remembered as a kind and gentle man, his wit and sense of humor was enjoyed by all who knew him. He worked his entire life as a lobster fisherman and labourer, working many years at Pettipas Market in Auld’s Cove. Fred enjoyed his garden and was most proud to be one of the first each spring to have his potatoes planted along the shore road. He enjoyed a good game of crib and bingo.
Fred is the last surviving member of his immediate family. He was predeceased by sisters, Carrie MacPherson, Rhoda Hart, Emily Hart, Patricia Luddington; brothers, William, Russell, MacKenzie and twin, Gordon. He is survived by many loving nieces and nephews. A special thank you to the Guysborough Home Support Agency and their workers for their many years of wonderful care.
