A. Perry White
1936-2017
It is with great sadness that we
announce the passing of our loving husband and father,
Alfred Perry White, 81, of Amherst, and
formerly of Oromocto and Joggins. Perry passed away on
Thursday, December 14, 2017 in Halifax. Born in Joggins, he was a son
of the late Oman and Elda (Rogers) White.
Perry was in the Armed Forces for more
than 20 years, serving with the Black Watch and RCR in Camp Aldershot,
Germany, Cyprus and CFB Gagetown. He was a longtime member
of the Black Watch Association and a 45 year member of the Royal
Canadian Legion. After retiring from the Forces, he worked 20 years
for Sumner Plumbing, Fredericton. He loved animals and
enjoyed nature, playing cards, reading Western novels, watching Star
Trek, and most of all, spending time with family and
friends.
Perry will be sadly missed by his wife
of fifty-four years, Margaret (Gates), of Amherst; his daughter,
Valerie White and her husband, Hans Hogers, of Toronto; three sisters,
Judy Gagnon, Livonia, MI, Agnes Stolz, Calgary, AB, and Carolyn
Vanbuskirk, Lower Sackville, as well as many cherished nieces and
nephews and close extended family.
Besides his parents, Perry was
predeceased by his brothers, Edward, James, Charles, and Borden, and
his sisters, Elaine, Nora, and Patsy.
Arrangements are under the care and
guidance of Furlong~Jones Funeral Home,
