Cameron
Heaven gained another angel in the early morning
hours of October 17, 2017 when the loving heart of our precious
husband, father, and grandfather stopped beating. For 71 years, he was
the beloved husband, best friend, and soul mate of Virginia (Manzi).
Virginia was a war bride who came to Canada in 1946 (via Pier 21) to
start their wonderful life together. It was a true love story that was
shared and admired by many. A decorated World War II Veteran, he would
shine his medals often and wore them proudly each Remembrance Day. His
family was his pride and joy: the ones he laughed with, lived for and
loved the most. He was happiest when he was surrounded by his family,
and of course, when he was playing a game of crib. He could count a
crib hand like no other, and he loved to win. He was a devoted and
loving husband, father, grandfather, and great grandfather. In
addition to the love of his life, he also leaves behind his sister
Elizabeth, daughters Pamela (Robert) Campbell, Wendy (Rod) McCarthy,
Angela (Lloyd) MacGregor, son David (Diane) Cameron, grandchildren
Gina, Gillian, Erin, Amelia, Maggie, Mark, Luke, Christopher, Maria,
David and Ryan, and great grandchildren Cameron, Owen, Jack, James,
Max, Blake, Laura, David, Ailish, Finley, Mack, Eric and Avery. He was
pre-deceased by father John D. Cameron, mother Catherine M. Cameron,
sister Catherine, brothers Alec and Harris, and brothers-in-law
Clarence MacDougall and Lawrence Graham. Our family would like to
thank his daughter Wendy and caregiver Helen for the tremendous
24-hour care they have provided over the past few years. We would also
like to thank Veterans Affairs for their continued support and the
Palliative care unit at the Victoria General hospital for the amazing
compassion they showed during his final days. In memory of Harold,
donations can be made to Cystic Fibrosis Canada in honour of his great
grandson Blake Brien. Visitation will take place on Thursday, October
19 from 6pm-8pm, and the funeral will take place on Friday, October 20
at 11am (both at the H.W. Angus Funeral Home, 256 King Street in New
Glasgow). A reception will follow the funeral, and a private burial
will take place at MacPhersons Mills
Cemetery.
“He took away all my
worries and problems. It will be hard to know where I belong in this
world without him. My heart will be forever
broken.” Love,
Virginia Cameron
