Teddy Leigh Merrey
1968-2020
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of
Teddy Leigh Merrey, 51, at the Halifax
Infirmary on Friday, August 7, 2020. Teddy was born in
Springhill on November, 29, 1968, the son of the late Brenda
(McMaster) Pepperdine and step-son of the late Kenneth
Pepperdine.
Teddy had worked for Oxford Frozen Foods
for over 30 years. He was a lover of the outdoors and his
garden. He loved and will be missed by his three fur-babies,
Cuddles, Luke, and Keeper Good Boy, who were all very special to
him. Teddy enjoyed the simple pleasures in life; his
personal piece of heaven was at the pier in Parrsboro where he could
watch the tide come and go while enjoying the sun on his face and a
gentle breeze. He had a dry sense of humour and loved the
occasional prank and teasing as many can
attest.
One never had to ask Teddy for help; he
had a knack for knowing when someone was in need and would give them a
helping hand without requiring or expecting any
recognition.
Teddy was a wonderful and devoted father
who adored his children.
Teddy will be dearly missed and never
forgotten by the love of his life, his soul-mate, and best friend,
Mary Lynn Hurley; two daughters, Breonna and Reganne Merrey; his son,
Callan Merrey; his step-son, Bradley Hurley; a grandson, Xavier
Merrey; a step-granddaughter, Tessa Grace Hurley; a very special
great-niece, Neela MacAloney; his special Aunt Vicky Dulong; his Uncle
Glennie McMaster, as well as a very special cousin, Sophie-Elise
Dulong.
Besides his parents, Teddy was
predeceased by his grandfather, Edgar “Tettie” McMaster,
with whom he shared a very special relationship.
Arrangements are under the care and
guidance of A.H. Brown Funeral Home, 5
McFarlane Street, Springhill (902-597-2361). Honouring
Teddy’s wishes, cremation has taken place and a private family
graveside service will take place at a later date.
