The passing of Frederick Charles Humphrey of
Fredericton, NB occurred at Hospice House, Fredericton, on August 7,
2023. He was 98 years old.
Born in Ottawa on Feb 5, 1925, he was the son of the
late William Humphrey and Rhoda (Cole) Humphrey. Fred enlisted at age
18 and served in the
Canadian
Army during World War II. He was a member
of Morning Gate Church, Fredericton, and a member of the Royal
Canadian Legion, Fredericton, Branch
#4.
After the war, he resumed his studies and graduated
from McGill University with a degree in Chemical Engineering, then
followed a long career with International Paper Company, serving in
Temiskaming, Quebec, Hawkesbury, Ontario and New York City, while
living in Greenwich,
Connecticut.
He was an avid gardener and loved hunting and
fishing, especially fly-fishing for Atlantic salmon. Fred took up
woodworking as his major hobby and became a self-taught fine furniture
craftsman, delighting his family with a treasured legacy of beautiful
furniture in pine, mahogany and
cherry.
After his wife died, Fred moved to a
senior’s apartment building where he enjoyed coffee hours
and pot lucks with many fine people over the
years.
In June 2022, he moved to Brunswick Hall, Shannex,
where he made new friends and so enjoyed the weekly music
sessions.
He is survived by daughter Carol Humphrey of
Scarborough Maine, daughter Allison Hubbard (Michael) of Fredericton,
NB, grandson Kyle Hubbard (Sara) of Fredericton, granddaughter Elise
Hubbard of Whistler, BC and great granddaughter Laila Hubbard of
Fredericton. He is pre-deceased by his wife Frances
(Fleeting).
Many thanks to the caring staff at Brunswick Hall,
who made this last year so special for Fred. Also special thanks to
the staff at Hospice House who helped make Fred’s last days
very comfortable.
