Please share a memory of Dale to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
HAIGH, Dale Lewis – 68, Evanston, Richmond Co., passed away Tuesday, January 14, 2014, in the Strait Richmond Hospital, Evanston, surrounded by family. Dale was born in Edmonton, Alberta on April 28, 1945 where he spent the first 38 years of his life before making the move across Canada to Evanston.
In addition to being a loving father to 4 children, Dale was an avid fisherman, golfer, gardener and mechanic as he could be found in his garage most hours of the day. Dale worked countless hours as an electrician all his life, and even in his later years you'd find him with a tool belt on his waist and a Tim's in his hand heading to his next job. Anyone who knew Dale knew his love for his pets especially his fish and his darling cat, Bella. In his final time, Dale was always surrounded and loved by family and friends, with daily visits and care from brother in law Gerard and great friend Jerry, whom the children will be forever grateful. Dale was predeceased by his son, D'Arcy; mother, Helen and father, Edgar and niece, Lana.
Dale is survived by sons, Chris (Sarah) and Daniel; daughter, Laurisa (Brian); granddaughters, Kirstin and Alyssa; brothers, Wayne (Linda) and Terry (Diane); sister, Penny (Howard). Dale will also be lovingly missed by Rosemary, Peggy, nieces and nephews, family and friends.
A graveside service will be held to celebrate Dale's life in St. Francis de Sales Cemetery, Lower River Inhabitants on Friday at 2 p.m., with a small gathering at the Riverdale Community Centre to follow. At Dale's request donations can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society or charity of choice, in lieu of flowers. Arrangements are under the care and direction of the Dennis Haverstock Funeral Home, Port Hawkesbury. Words of comfort may be forwarded to the family at: www.haverstocks.com
