DAVIS-HALL, Albert Douglas October 17, 1932 - March 3, 2009 It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of Bert Davis-Hall at the age of 76 after a hard fought battle with cancer. Bert leaves behind his loving wife of fifty-two years Angela, son Greg (Shelley), daughters Alex (Heath), Julie (Graham) and Susan (David), cherished grandchildren, Matthew, Ryan, Rushton, Zakary, Breanna, Chloe and Hanna, much loved pets Kricket and Flynne, brothers Ted (Shirley) and Jack (Sheila), as well as many dear friends and neighbours. He was predeceased by his father George, mother Nellie and eldest brother Bob. Bert was an electrician by trade for forty years and was very talented with his hands. He was well known for being able to build or fix almost anything and for always jumping in to help out anyone with any sort of project. So many people have been grateful for his helping hands, especially his kids for whom there was never a task too big or too small. He was an avid golfer (with a hole in one!) and longtime member of the Calgary Elks Club. He loved the time he spent there playing golf in the summer and shooting pool in the winter and the many Elks buddies that he made over the years. Bert was a strong man with a big personality, an even bigger heart and a quick sense of humour. He was full of opinions and lots of sayings which we already miss and wish we could hear again. Bert was very proud of his family and the sun rose and set on his grandkids. He was a man who loved his life and never missed a chance to tell everyone how very good it was. We are all grateful that Bert was able to leave us in the way that he had hoped..in the home that he loved with his wife by his side. Bert will be always missed and forever in our hearts.
