Allison Arthur Thomas
1936-2023
We are sad to announce the passing of Allison Arthur Thomas,
beloved husband of Zelda (Graham) Thomas of North Head NB, who passed
away at the Grand Manan Hospital on April 14, 2023. Born at Grand
Manan NB on July 11, 1936 he was a son of the late Walter and Emma
(Small) Thomas.
He is survived by his beloved wife Zelda of 55 years, his
sister; Margaret Mersereau and his niece; Aleta Hayden both of
Fredericton NB as well as his nephew; Walter Mersereau of Sydney NS;
sister in law Marjorie (Graham) Davidson of Grand Manan NB, niece;
Lianne (late Rex) Harris of Grand Manan NB, Jody (Michele) Graham of
Memremcook NB, Dalton (Harris ((Jesse), Ashley Harris (Pat Cronk),
Ethan Graham (Danielle Wilkons), Megen Graham (Brady Russell), all
great nieces and great nephews of Grand Manan NB as well as other
great great nieces and nephews. In addition to his parents, he was
predeceased by siblings: Pauline Lee (Chett), Maudie (Robert) French,
Harold and his brother-in-law Jack Mersereau as well as
Marie Thomas.
Allison spent many years on the water working on “The
Old Black Boat”as well as several years lobster fishing, He was
the oldest fisherman on Grand Manan, having bought his licence for 25
cents. He can usually be found down on the North Head wharf checking
on his boat and talking to others.
Allison had many friends and both he and Zelda have done many
things for people to help them out as well as playing secret Santa for
the children. If you went to their home, you were always welcome and
if he was inside, he would probably come out of his den where he had
been listening to the radio or checking the weather. There are so many
things that could be said but I know he wouldn’t like a long
speech. Always love and always be missed. As the
“Sunrise’s” each day, we will always
remember.
In keeping with Allison’s wishes, there will be no
visitation or service. In his memory, donations to the Grand Manan
Hospital Foundation or a charity of the donor’s choice would
be appreciated by the family.
