Obituari Carolyn Ruth Homestead
Carolyn Ruth Holt was born on March 18, 1930, in Pawtucket, RI, and died September 18, 2017, at St. Luke’s Hospice House in Bethlehem, PA, after a brief illness. She graduated from Brown University in 1951 with a degree in biology. She then trained and worked as a registered medical technologist at Rhode Island General Hospital in Providence and also did graduate work in biochemistry at Boston University. In January 1959, she and Shirley Flynn, her neighbor and friend from childhood up, took a Grace Lines cruise to South America. After a whirlwind romance with ship’s purser, John Arthur Homestead, she married him in October 1959. They made their home in Brooklyn, where she worked at Maimonides Hospital until their first child was born. They purchased the Roto-Rooter franchise for Allentown and Bethlehem in 1962 and built their house in Stafore Estates in Hanover Township, Northampton County, in 1964. They lived there until 2012, when they moved to Westminster Village in Allentown. Carolyn enjoyed gardening, cooking, and needlework and was a Girl Scout leader and Cub Scout pack mother. After she and her husband sold the franchise to their son in 1993, they took many ocean cruises, river boat cruises, and bus tours throughout Europe and the Americas, including cruising on the same route on which they met in 1959. Carolyn retained strong ties to her friends in Rhode Island, including Shirley Flynn, and she enjoyed visits and phone calls with the other commuter students from her college class, who, even in their eighties, called themselves “the town girls.” She was preceded in death by her parents, Robert Holt and Ruth Scot Holt, and her sister, Roberta Black. She is survived by her husband, John, her daughters Heather (Michael Leonard) and Melissa, son Bruce (Susan Kalamar), and granddaughter Fiona Leonard.

Celebration of life to be announced at a later date.

Obituary for Harald “BUD” Friele
Obituary for Harald “BUD” Friele
Harald Berle “Bud” Friele passed away on November 21st, 2018 in the comfort of his own home on Salt Spring Island. Bud was born October 9, 1921 in Oslo, Norway, the eldest son of Haakon and Aslaug Friele, and brother to Ted and Rolf.

He took great pride in his heritage, and always flew a Norwegian flag along with his Canadian flag.

Bud lived his life with a strong sense of family, adventure, humour, creativity, and curiosity. Although he always kept Norway near and dear to his heart, Bud spent most of his younger years residing in the Seattle area.

He proudly served in the US Navy during WWII as Captain of the USS Vent, patrolling the Asiatic-Pacific Theater.

Bud was well known in the salmon industry, having fished and operated canneries in Alaska for many years. He later became President and General Manager of the Nakat Packing Corporation for A&P before retiring to Salt Spring Island. The sea was always a priority in Bud’s life. From his extensive career in the Alaskan salmon industry to spending time on his boat, “The Royal Viking,” Bud was happiest when out on the water. He could often be found prawning in the local waters, eating raw oysters off the beach, and making his specialty, Gravlax.

Bud was also an avid skier, hiker, photographer, and gardener who recently returned home from the Fall Fair with a first place trophy for his grapes. He enjoyed spending time in his workshop, engineering new and ingenious ways to build or repair almost anything, and was known to be the best knife sharpener around.

His most recent pastime found him creating perfectly balanced driftwood mobiles which he would give to grateful friends and family.
Bud was deeply loved and cherished by his three devoted wives, Katherine Brazeau, Evelyn Mouat, and Patricia Dougan, all of whom predeceased him. He leaves behind his five daughters and two step daughters: Kathy Fontenot (Don), Barb Lorenson (Stan), Christy Lein (Gary), Shelley Maxwell (Ron), Kari Holmes (Rob), Aileen Dougan (Craig), and Leanne Stegall (Bill). He was also the treasured “Bestefar” to eleven grandchildren and “Oldefar” to eight great grandchildren. Additionally left behind are Bud’s younger brother Ted Friele (Patty), Bev Brazeau, and the Pringle and Mouat families.

Bud’s longevity was due in part to his long time friend, David Davies, and to the wonderful care he received over the years from Dr. Reznick, Dr. Woodley, and the staff at Lady Minto Hospital.

Bud wishes that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to Lady Minto Hospital in Ganges.

Obituary Steve Metcalf
Obituary Steve Metcalf
Dear friends,

Steve died peacefully at St. Peter Hospital in the early morning of July 17, 2023.

Steve’s warmth and gentle interest in all things made him a delight to everyone lucky enough to know him. He did the New York Times Sunday crossword in ink, was dedicated to daily Wordle challenges with his sisters, Elizabeth and Janet Metcalf, always knew the latest Twitter drama, and could do the key changes in any jazz standard. His love of good food, good company, and good conversation was unmatched. He engaged in life with an uncommonly open spirit and a contagious fascination.

He is survived by his wife, Judy Metcalf, and his children, Tom Metcalf and Miranda Kielland Metcalf, as well as two granddaughters, Georgie and Rosie, who were undoubtedly the light of his life in his final years. He was truly a wonderful father and an inspiration to his children.

Interacting with his friends around the world on Facebook was one of his favorite pastimes. He will be deeply missed in both physical and digital spaces.

In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to the Jazz Foundation in his name.
