Avis de décès de Harold Anderson - Nécrologie - MesAieux.com

ANDERSON, Harold Gordon It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of our father and grandfather on Monday, September 29th, 2008. Harold was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia on April 26th 1915 to Catherine Wilhelmina and Hubert George Anderson, but grew up and considered Victoria his home. He enjoyed telling many stories of the history of Victoria which he was part of, including the bath houses and swimming in the Gorge, as well as skating on Portage Inlet. He joined the Army at a very young age, and retired after 25 years of service. He then worked happily at Alf Becker and Son for the next 10 years. Upon his retirement from Fort Rodd Hill as an Interpretations Officer, Harold was able to enjoy his many hobbies which included hiking and spending time in the outdoors. His passion for trains lead him on many trips up the Fraser Canyon and to the spiral tunnels. Harold is loved and will be missed by his daughters Barbara Jensen (grandchildren Beth, Amy, and Rob), Patricia Zukowski (husband John, grandchildren Angela and Jeff), and Myrna Bennett (grandsons Dale and David), as well as his great grandchildren, sisters Lil Williams and Elsie Stancil, his niece, and nephews. Harold was predeceased by his first wife, Joan of 27 years and wife Ada of 25 years. Many thanks to Dr. Paul Nehra and the staff at Luther Court for their kind and compassionate care. A memorial service to celebrate the life of Harold will be held at Sands Chapel, 1803 Quadra St. on Wednesday, October 8th at 1PM with a reception to follow. In lieu of flowers, Harold would have appreciated donations being made in his name to the Salvation Army or the SPCA. 503810
