Obituary
Aubrey Ross Trenholm of Sackville, NB and formerly of Fort Lawrence, NS passed away at the Sackville Memorial Hospital on Monday, December 15, 2008 at the age of 93.
Born in Fort Lawrence, NS, he was a son of the late Alfred and Helen (Atkinson) Trenholm.
He is survived by his children, Phyllis Frick of Westlock, AB; Faye (Kenneth) Campbell of Riverview, NB; Eric (Heather) Trenholm of Warren, NS; and Karen Trenholm of London, ON; as well as by eight grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren. Mr. Trenholm is also survived by one brother, Gerald (Mary) Trenholm of Amherst, NS; and 15 nieces and nephews.
Mr. Trenholm was predeceased by his wife, F. Josephine (Somers) Trenholm, in 1994; his daughter, Anna Louise Trenholm, in 1980; as well as his brothers, Gordon (Margaret) and Carman (Phyllis); his sister, Frances (William) Glenwright; and his brother in law, Jack (Audrey) Somers.
Mr. Trenholm was a farmer in Fort Lawrence all of his working life and well past the age at which most people retire. From 1970 until the farm was sold in 1999 he was in partnership with his son, Eric, in Laurentide Farms Ltd. Through much of his life, he contributed to his community through service on the School Board and as a 4-H Club Leader; to his Church (the Fort Lawrence United Church, and subsequently Trinity-St. Stephen's United Church in Amherst) through service on the Session and Church Board; and to his profession, through service on the Amherst Federation of Agriculture, the NS Federation of Agriculture, the Board of Scotsburn Cooperative Service Ltd. and the Nova Scotia Holstein Association. In earlier years, he was also an active member of the Amherst Curling Club.
His remains are resting in Campbell's Funeral Home, 98 Church St., Amherst, (667-9906) with visiting on Sunday, December 28, 2008 from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. Funeral service will be celebrated on Monday, December 29, 2008 at 2 p.m. from Campbell's Chapel with Rev. Susan Estabrooks officiating. Interment will take place in the family plot in the Fort Lawrence Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers donations in Mr. Trenholm's memory may be made to the Trinity-St. Stephen's United Church, Canadian Red Cross (Sackville Branch) or charity of your choice.
