Obituaries - Our friends at St ThomasPIKE, Daisy Pauline
Fall River, passed away peacefully on January 24, 2009, in the QEII Health Sciences Centre, Halifax, surrounded by family. Pauline was born in St. John's, N.L., the daughter of the late Daisy and Alfred Rees. She was a graduate of Bishop Spencer College, and married Harold Pike in 1944. In 1946 they emigrated from Newfoundland to Nova Scotia, but always remained proud Newfoundlanders. Volunteer work at the Anglican Church was an integral part of Pauline's life, first at Christ Church, Dartmouth, and then at St. Thomas' Church in Fall River. The friendships she made there meant a great deal to her. Not a sports fan before she married, Pauline decided to become one when she realized how much time Harold spent watching baseball and hockey. She grew to love both games, and in 1972, when the USSR hosted the Moscow portion of the Russia-Canada hockey summit, Pauline made sure she and Harold were in the stands at the Luzhniki Ice Palace to cheer for Team Canada. Pauline also rooted for the Toronto Maple Leafs and Blue Jays for many decades, with varying degrees of success. Pauline was predeceased by husband, Harold and siblings, Dorothy, Jim and Joan. She is survived by her children, Sharon (Stan) Lloyd, Fall River; David (Kathy), Halifax, and niece D'Ann (Dieter) Feth, Lower Sackville. Pauline was a loving grandmother to Scott, Leah, Andrea and Amie; and proud great-grandmother ("GG") to Kingsly, Jaxson and Isabella. The family would like to thank the staff at the Halifax Infirmary, QEII, especially the nurses on 8.2, for their compassionate care in the last days of Pauline's life. Cremation has taken place. A memorial service will be held at St. Thomas' Church in Fall River, Tuesday, January 27, at 10:30 a.m. Reception to follow in the church hall. Donations may be made to St. Thomas' Church Building Fund.
