Walter Babcock
1945-2016
With great sadness we announce the sudden passing
of Walter Mervin Babcock, 71, of Elgin at his residence on Friday,
October 7, 2016.
Born in Petitcodiac, he was the eldest son of
Bertha (Stiles) Babcock and the late Claude Babcock. In his
early working years, Walter worked at home on the farm and later he
worked for a time at the Kenneth E. Spencer Memorial home. He loved
witnessing for his Lord and Saviour and he attended First Elgin
Baptist Church, the Goshen Baptist Church, and Sunday
School. He enjoyed doing needlepoint and embroidery, hooking
rugs and reading. He especially loved riding his moped and being with
his family and friends. Walter really appreciated his walks, and he
was a well known figure on the Goshen Road often stopping to chat with
his neighbours. He loved interacting with people at the Jordan
LifeCare Centre Daycare and also attending the Elgin Senior Citizens
Group.
Survived and sadly missed by his mother Bertha;
brothers Robert (Linda), Petitcodiac and Winston (Bev), Steeves
Mountain; nephew Stephen Babcock; nieces Susan Allain and family and
Alicia Toft-Hansen and family, and very special Aunt Laura.
Predeceased by his father Claude (1995) and his nephew Ryan Babcock
(1991).
Resting at Armstrongs Funeral Chapel, 33 Russell
Street (756-3361) visiting will be Sunday, October 9 from 2 to 4 pm
and from where the funeral will be held in the chapel Monday, October
10 at 1 pm with Rev. James Hammond officiating. Interment at
Goshen Baptist Cemetery.
If desired, memorials to a charity of choice would
be appreciated by the family.
