Baldwin, Philip W. - 68, Havre Boucher. It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Phil on Thursday March 23, 2006 at St. Martha's Regional Hospital, Antigonish. Born in Louisbourg, Cape Breton, September 28th, 1937, he was the son of the late David and Pauline (Lynk) Baldwin. He is survived by his wife Susan (Guitard) Baldwin, his children, David (Ann), Yarmouth; Patricia (Francis) O'Neil, Linwood; Phillip Jr. (Faye), Frankville; Angela Baldwin, Havre Boucher; Michael, Halifax; and five grandchildren, Clayton, Bobby, Tyler, Shana, and Ryan. He also leaves his sister Carrie Mae (Gordon) Kea, Cannington, Ontario; sister-in-law, Mora, Port Hawesbury; Aunt Beatrice MacDonald, New Waterford; and several nieces, nephews, and cousins. Besides his parents, his brother Fred, and infant sister Hughena also predeceased him. As a teenager he set off for British Columbia, to work on the pipelines. It was there that he began his trade as a welder. He returned to Cape Breton with the expansion of Stora Forest Industries where he worked for thirty-five years. He was welding supervisor for many of those years. Phil lived in Mulgrave for twenty years, where he was a member of the St. Lawrence Parish, a member of the Kinsmen Club, Chairman of the Mulgrave Housing Commission, President of the Mulgrave area branch of the Nova Scotia Wildlife Federation, and community volunteer. Phil was a loving father who enjoyed cooking for his family. He loved the outdoors and was an avid fisherman, hunter and gardener. He knew the rivers and lakes of Guysborough County like the back of his hand. It was said that if he were a contestant on 'Survivor', he would have been the only one to gain weight. Visitation will take place 2-4pm and 7-9pm Saturday March 25th, 2006, at St. Paul's Parish Center, Havre Boucher. A funeral service will be held 2pm Sunday March 26th in St. Paul's Church, Rev.

The family would like to thank the team of doctors and nurses from both the QE11 in Halifax, and St. Martha's Regional Hospital in Antigonish for their care and support.
