MANTHORNE, Herbert Kitchener - 93, Liverpool, died March 19, 2007. It is with great sadness that the family announce the passing of their dear father, loving grandfather and proud great-grandfather in Parkstone Enhanced Care, Halifax. Born October 25, 1914, in Port Medway, Queens Co., a son of the late Charles and Robina (Parke) Manthorne. Throughout his life his love and devotion to family, friends and Liverpool Baptist Church were clearly demonstrated. His love of skating and his skill at doing so made him a popular figure on the ice over the years and much in demand as a skating partner. An avid Ham Radio operator early in life, he was known as "VEIABB" and his voice was well-recognized over the air waves until the loss of his eyesight in his 80s. He is fondly remembered by many who joined up with him for his annual trek along the shores of Lake Rossignol to harvest cranberries. Sharing this tradition with so many friends and family was a highlight of his life, his last trip at the age of 90. Demonstrating a passionate interest in his birthplace, his mind was a wealth of information to those seeking and documenting Port Medway history and genealogy. His collections and mementos were so precious to him, sharing them with so many others until the sudden loss of his sight which changed his life so dramatically. Known to so many friends as "Herb", he became so much a part of the Liverpool scene as he faithfully walked across town to join his many friends at McDonald's for their daily coffee and friendship sessions. He truly loved the feelings of warmth that he felt from the McDonald's employees and his wonderful caring friends. A special thank you to all of you - you know who you are. His trusted companion, his harmonica, was always with him and he loved playing for so many people. Moving to Liverpool, as a young man he started working at Thompson Bros., Steel and Engines, Rossignol Sales and Service and then with Rossignol Sales (GM Dealership) until his retirement as Stock Room Manager in 1980. His active participation in Ground Search and Rescue presented him with many challenges over the years, enabling him to use his skills as a Ham Radio operator to assist others within the organization. He is survived by his daughter, Bette Ann (Jim) Wigglesworth, Halifax; son, David (Sheila) Manthorne, Dartmouth; grandchildren, Tara Lee Hines, Todd Wigglesworth, Shelley and Jill Manthorne; great-grandchildren, Kali and Rees Hines, Justin and Logan Wigglesworth. Also surviving are sister-in-law, Evelyn Manthorne, and many very special nieces and cousins. Our father was predeceased by our mother, Vida (Veinot) Manthorne, and by his brother, Charles Eric Manthorne. A memorial service will be held at a later date. A private family interment will be held in Greenwood Cemetery, Port Medway. Family flowers only. Donations may be made to Liverpool United Baptist Church or the charity of choice.
