ALCOCK, Harry Stuart - 1914 - 2002. Calgary, Alberta. After
a wonderful life of 88 years, Harry Stuart Alcock slipped
away on October 10th from complications
due to pneumonia to be reunited with his beloved Daphne. Born
May 2nd, 1914 in St. John's, Newfoundland, he spent
the early years of his life first in St. John's and then Corner
Brook. His formal education took place at the Prince of Wales
College where he majored in Commerce and Finance. While in College
he starred in hockey, soccer and was a member of the Guards Championship
Soccer team. As a young CGA he was employed by the Corner Brook
West Town Council as a Financial Clerk and later became Manager
of Water and Sewerage Town Planning. Later he combined his sports
and finance abilities to be instrumental in the creation of Humber
Gardens Arena in Corner Brook, and as well was manager of the
city's all star hockey teams. A serendipitous meeting during
his college days led to the love of his life. Daphne (nee Snelgrove
of Catalina) married Harry August 5, 1940. Their union produced
3 fine sons: Gary, Graham and Bryan. In 1957, they left the island
for Toronto to begin new chapters. There Harry worked with the
Scarborough Public Utilities as Chief Accountant until his retirement
in 1978. He and Daphne then retired to Fort Lauderdale to live
the life of snowbirds. Sadly, in 1993 Harry lost his soul mate
and best friend, Daphne, after 54 glorious years of marriage.
Then, the tragic loss of Graham two years later who "slipped
the surly bonds of earth to dance the skies on laughter silvered
wings" began to take its toll and his health declined.
So in 1999, he moved to Calgary to be closer to family. Harry
touched many people in his 88 years. His memory will life on
in friends and family. "Pops" is loved and
missed especially by grandchildren: David and Jazz (Bryan and
Jane) of Calgary, Alberta, Jenny, Sarah and Jay (Graham and Gail)
of Phoenix, AZ and Kathy of Toronto (Rev. Gary and Harriet of
Nova Scotia). Even though the pain is heavy for us now we take
comfort in knowing that "this too shall pass." A
private Memorial Service took place Friday, October 18, 2002
in Calgary. Memorial Services will take place again in June 2003
in St. John's and Corner Brook, Newfoundland (interment). If
desired, donations may be made to a charity of your choice. McInnis & Holloway

BUTLER, Rev. Isaac, B.A., L.Th., - 95, Halifax,
Nova Scotia passed away October 15, 2002 at
the VG Site, QE II. Born in Greeleytown, Foxtrap, Conception
Bay, Newfoundland, on October 11, 1907, he was the son of the
late Charles and Mary Jane (Dawe) Butler. He was a teacher for
three years before deciding to enter the ministry. As an ordained
priest, he served in parishes in Newfoundland (Twillingate, Fogo,
Brigus-Salmon Cove, Bay St. George, Bay Roberts), and Nova Scotia
(Mulgrave, Bible Hill, Digby-Weymouth, Westphal). He attended
Bishop Feild College, St. John's, before graduating from Queen's
Theological College, St. John's, and Durham University, Durham,
England. Throughout his ministry he used the Bible his friends
had given him before leaving for Liverpool, England on the SS
Nova Scotia in 1936. He met and married his devoted wife, June
(Julia) Earle, in the parish of Fogo, Newfoundland where she
was the organist of St. Andrew's Church. In 1999, St. John's
Anglican Church, Westphal, N.S. honoured him on the 65th anniversary
of his ordination. In days when roads were few and far between
in Nfld, he carried out his ministry in widespread parishes by
traveling on horse and sled, snowshoes, motorboats and dories,
walking long distances, biking, by speeder (a small hand-propelled
train car), and train. At various times during his ministry he
filled many roles ranging from medical advisor in isolated outports
to chairing school boards. In the latter role he was instrumental
in the building of a consolidated high school on high ground
near Bay Roberts, Newfoundland appropriately called Ascension
Collegiate. His secret for a long and happy life was to walk
every day, not only physically but also spiritually. He was ordained
priest at St. John the Baptist Cathedral in St. John's, Nfld
by Bishop White in 1934. He was predeceased by brother Charles
and sisters Rebecca and Jessie. Besides his loving wife of 62
years, he is survived by daughters Margaret (Ken) Mackenzie,
Salt Spring Island, B.C., and Barbara, Halifax; and sons Bernard
(Robina), Dartmouth and Geoffrey (Judi), Granville Ferry, N.S.
He will also be sadly missed by grandchildren Erica and Stephen;
Elena and Andrew; Bill and David; and Tegan, Kirsten, Leah, and
Sean; by great-grandchildren Kendra, Matthew, and Ryan; and by
nieces and nephews Ruby LeDrew, Ray (Dot) Bishop, Bert (Doris)
Bishop of Kelligrews, Nfld, Daphne (Austin) Earle, St. John's,
and Dallas Buxbaum, Hallandale, Florida. Cremation has taken
place. A memorial service to celebrate the life of Rev. Isaac
Butler will be held at All Saints Cathedral, Tower Road, Halifax
at 11:30 A.M., Friday, October 18. Immediately following the

advice he'd give us, His eyes that shone with laughter, So much
of him will never die, But live on ever after. As we loved you,
so we miss you, In our memory you are near, Loved, remembered,
longed for always, Bringing many a silent tear.
