STAPLES
FAMILY
COMMITTAL SERVICE
Dr.
Eric Eugene Staples, of
Ancaster, ON, invites
family and friends of the
Staples family to
the committal of
his father,
Reginald Eugene (1932-2018),
born at Staples
Brook, NS and later
settled in Hamilton, ON, eldest son of the late William and Essie
Staples, late
brother Eric Rowe, and surviving brother of Garth E. Staples, Truro;
his mother, Frances Elaine (1930-2010), born in Madoc, ON; and sister
Arlene Frances (1960-2021), born in Hamilton,
ON. My mother loved
Belmont and
thought of it as ‘home’ after marrying into
the Staples family. My
sister and
I did as
well and
spent most of our summers growing up at Grandma and
Grandpa’s house in Belmont. Arlene always had a
wish to come back and visit
Belmont.
All were cremated at the time of
their deaths and being alone now in
Hamilton, there was a lingering question
of what to do with their
urns. Thanks to Uncle Garth and Aunt
Heather, this side of the Staples family
finds their way back home and I will
be interred here too when I
pass.
A
small committal ceremony, led by
Garth E. Staples, will be held at the Old
Methodist Cemetery in Belmont
on July 16,
2022, at 11am.
A special thank you
to my
Uncle Garth and Aunt Heather for all your support in helping me
through this journey. I
also want to thank Mary Teed for her
assistance with the
cemetery and
Heritage Memorials Limited
who created the headstone. As well, I wish to
thank P.X. Dermody Funeral Home in
Hamilton, ON and Mattatall-Varner
Funeral Home in assisting with the
logistics and arrangements for
bringing my
family back home toNova
Scotia.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Staples Family 1930 2021..
