In memory of those who have Crossed the Bar
LEWIS, Larry N. - It is with sad and heavy hearts to announce the passing of my kind hearted husband Larry who passed away on Friday January 31, 2014 at the Halifax Infirmary surrounded by loved ones. Survived by his loving wife Jeannie, his Dad, Norman Lewis; son Jeremey; sisters, Beth, Rhonda, Jo-Anne; brother, Kenny and several nieces and nephews. Predeceased by his little brother Paul, mother and grandparents. Larry joined the Navy when he was young and had a distinguished career there where he made it up to “chief”. He thoroughly enjoyed his time there sailing on the open sea. He retired from the military in 1995 and went on to work at the Halifax Shipyards in 2001 as a engine fitter advancing on to quality assurance, a job he truly loved. He fought a hard and long battle with cancer and sadly lost. Through it all he stood tall and strong, even when cancer took away everything. He never once complained. He was determined the one thing it wasn’t gonna take was his job. He worked till the very last day. Well done honey, you won that one. His favorite place to go for peace and quiet was our riverfront property. He’d sit there and watch the river go by while enjoying a few cold ones, on a hot summer day. There will be no services as per Larry’s wishes. He has been cremated and will be returning home to his loving wife until were together again. I’d like to thank all who’s helped us through this difficult time, also to the paramedics and fire fighters who assisted the staff at the emergency department and Ronald A. Walker Funeral Home, Hubbards. Rest in peace Larry. I‘ll love you forever. “TGFE”.
