Maxine (MacDormand) and their four sons. ‘Fred’ as he will be lovingly remembered by all his sons their families and grandchildren.

Also, survived by his sister Amy J. Vincent of Dartmouth, NS, her son Carl (Anne) and daughter Lesleanne and their children. Lewis was a member of Solomon Lodge No. 46, Port Hawkesbury, the Causeway Shrine Club, a Past Patron of Starlight Chapter No. 66 Order of the Eastern Star and Past Grand Patron of the Grand Chapter Order of the Eastern Star of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. He was a Land Surveyor for the Nova Scotia Power Commission for fourteen years before moving to Port Hastings in 1965 where he started his career at Stora Forest Industries. He retired from Stora in 1990. For over forty years, he was an active member of the Port Hawkesbury Curling Club (SACCC), and assisted in the construction of the original clubhouse and ice shed. He and Maxine enjoyed the campground and the links at the Guysborough Golf Club for many years. They took many trips with their travel trailer. He was also trustee of St. David’s United Church, Port Hastings and a member of the Port Hastings Historical Society. He and his trusty tractor will surely be missed by many houses on the hill as he ‘often’ plowed the driveways before his own. If something was broke, Fred would always find a way to make it work again. He was a volunteer fire fighter with the Port Hasting Volunteer Fire Department. He held various positions over the many years of service from Truck Captain to Deputy Fire Chief. If he wasn’t home or at work you could likely find him at the Fire Hall assisting with whatever event was happening. Many thanks to Dr. Gallivan, Dr. Boyd, nurses and staff of St. Martha’s Hospital Antigonish, NS for the care while he was in the hospital.
