Sorry folks, I forgot to grab this obit before I sent the list off. There is a small mention in today's CB Deaths re- Sam Brown.

He will also be deeply missed by brothers-in-law Ed Bell (Enid) and Ken Bell (Anne), and long time friend, Mickey Butson. His memory will also be cherished by all those who knew and loved him, and are too numerous in numbers to name. Sam was predeceased by his parents Joseph and Lucy Brown, and siblings Urban, Jamer, Pat, Roddy, Joe, Marion, Mabel and Gertie. Born September 21, 1931 in his beloved Cape Breton Island, Sam served in the R.C.A.F. for 21 years and was a valued member of the R.C.A.F. Flyers Hockey Team, who played throughout Europe.

Unit 283, and also served on their Executive Committee where he built many relationships and had many happy memories. Sam loved life! To know him was to love him. With Marilyn by his side, he touched so many lives of those who came to know him. Whether you were lucky enough to have a jive with him at the club, share a few beers, or tell a joke or two - you knew he was the real deal. In his retirement years Sam and Marilyn enjoyed many happy summers at Lee River and in the past few years at Wildwood Park. A celebration of Sam's life will be held on Friday, November 27, 2009 at 2:00 p.m. in the A.N.A.F. Unit 283, 3584 Portage Ave., Winnipeg. A special thank you to all of Sam's caregivers.

LK 6:36 We are so heartbroken to announce the passing of our loving mother Annabelle, the best friend we could ever ask for. She passed away peacefully Wednesday, Nov. 25, 2009, surrounded by her children who poured out unconditional love to her. Annabelle was a daughter of the late Edmund and Sophie (MacKinnon) English. Born and raised in Whitney Pier, she later moved to reside in Glace Bay, where she raised her family. A very strong-spirited woman, she always maintained strength through her faith. ?Everybody in life has a cross to bear, some heavier than others. When you think you can?t carry anymore the Lord carries for you?. Mom was our Rock - her strength, her love and her heart were given to us all. Her life was dedicated to her family; always placing her needs last. She always told us children that we were closest to her heart. A very strong-willed and private lady, she gave because she wanted to give; never expecting anything in return. Everything came sincerely from the heart. Her morals and values are instilled in her children today; and hopefully, will carry into future generations. We love you mom. An avid quilter; each stitch done with love to those who received; she loved to garden and always thought ?weeds are an endangered species.? During her illness, she took strength in her Rosary and in trying times from her devotion to St. Anthony. She is survived by her only son, Hugh, Jasper, Alta.; daughters, Emeline (Rubin) Forbes and Annabelle (Kevin) Dowe; grandchildren, Jason and Sarabeth Forbes, Cordell and Mitchell Dowe; five great-grandsons; sisters, Emeline Fraser, Catherine Koleszar; brothers, Edmund and Howard English.

Doris was a graduate of the Halifax Children?s Hospital and met her husband, the late Commander Harry Shorten, at a reception onboard HMCS Haida in Halifax harbor in wartime.

Daughter Debbie (Husband Robert Scott and daughter Brittany, Fredericton, N.B.) was born in Churchill, Man., and daughter Janet (Husband Tom Foster - Denver, Colorado) was born in Ottawa. They also lived in England, Virginia and a number of locations across Canada. In 1969 the family moved to Moncton and Doris became involved with many community organizations.

She also enjoyed serving on the Moncton Symphony Committee and Foundation. She was an ardent Liberal and was a member of the Moncton South Women?s Liberal Association as well as the Federal Liberal Party. Doris lived life to the fullest and was always open for a new adventure involving family and friends, or a lively debate about politicians. Her independent spirit helped her to remain active in her later years, even operating the snowblower in her eighties. In addition to Debbie and Janet and their families, Doris is also survived by her dear friend, Anita Connors, and many adored nieces and nephews. At her request there will be no visitation. Committal services will be held in Cape Breton at a later date.
