had farmed for many years, retiring from farming in 1967. He was always
very active and had also worked at Hydro, Department of Highways, sawmills
and at Stanley Park. He was a member of the Orange Lodge and had been a
school trustee for many years. He enjoyed horses and horse racing, playing
baseball, and as a southpaw pitcher, played until he was almost 50 years of
