VERGE, Arthur Byron -87, of Mill Cove. It is with deep sadness that I announce the passing of my beloved husband, Arthur, on Wednesday, March 31, 2010, in South Shore Regional Hospital, Bridgewater. Born in The Lodge, he was the oldest son of the late Byron and Lucy (Bolton) Verge. Arthur was an avid card player, enjoyed socializing and travelled extensively until health prevented. He was a fisherman in early years, and then a long haul truck driver for Seldon Miller Fisheries until his retirement in 1988. He is survived by his wife of 49 years, Jeanine Shatford; brother, William (Rosanne); sister, Betty (Steve) Bainbridge; sisters-in-law, Minette, Rosa (Fred), Lillian Verge; brothers-in-law, Gilford Harnish, Blois; his two "special girls" who dearly touched his heart with their extra love and dedication, Beverly Levy and Denise Harnish, many nieces and nephews too numerous to name. He will be missed by his treasured and constant companions, kitty cats, Shelby and Blackie. Arthur was predeceased by sisters, Doris, Lily, Virginia; brothers, Albert and George. Visitation will be held 7-9:30 p.m. today and Friday 2-4 p.m. in Ronald A. Walker Funeral Home, Hubbards. Funeral service will be held Saturday 2:30 p.m. in St. Marks Anglican Church, Mill Cove, Rev. Laurie Omstead and Rev. Reg MacDonald officiating. Interment in St. James Cemetery, Fox Point. Family flowers only; donations may be made to St. Marks Anglican Church, or charity of your choice. Special thank you to Dr. Jim McLean, Dr. Heather Robertson, staff of South Shore Regional Hospital, the wonderful girls from Lunenburg County Home Support Services, Rev. Laurie Omstead, Rev. Reg MacDonald, faithful friend Brenda Munro, and many many dear relatives, friends and neighbours. On-line condolences can be made to: www.rawalker.ca
