Everett Laurie Arnburg
1937-2020
Everett Laurie Arnburg – 83, of Kentville, passed
away on Friday, December 25, 2020 in the Evergreen Home for Special
Care, Kentville. He was born in Kentville on July 30, 1937 as a son of
the late Albert and Alice (Bezanson) Arnburg. Everett began his
working career at Cornwallis Supplies and T.P. Calkin’s, and
later worked many years at Sears in Kentville, followed by working
with his brother, Gerald as a carpenter until his retirement. In his
younger years, he played various sports including hockey, broomball
and bowling. Many may remember ‘Elbows Arnburg’ on
the ice. Everett enjoyed spending time with family, playing cards and
washer toss, once lawn darts were banned and the horseshoes became too
heavy! He could often be found in his workshop, woodworking
or splitting kindling. He loved the outdoors through
camping, gardening, hunting and fishing. His biggest love of
his life was his wife of 53 years, June. He was a loving
husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, provider, and friend.
He is survived by sons, Laurie (Tina Scott), Black Rock; Donnie
(Michelle Johnstone), New Minas; Dale (Sharon), Coldbrook;
grandchildren, Sarah (Adam) Janes, Michael, Kendall and Mitchell
Arnburg; several great grandchildren, sisters, Sheila (Terry) Vidito;
Marie (Orrin) Smith; Doreen Arnburg; Marjorie (Phillip) Huntley; Ethel
(John) Black; brothers, Lloyd, Gerald, Ernest and Stanley; numerous
nieces, nephews and extended family. He was predeceased by his wife
June; sisters, Bernice, Jean and brothers, Lawrence, Arnold, Shirley,
and grandson Oliver. Cremation has taken place and there will be no
