Thomas (Buster) Connelly

Mr. Thomas Connelly passed away on Nov. 29, 2002, peacefully at Victoria Haven Nursing Home with his loved ones by his side.

Tom, known to most as "Buster" was a gentle, loving and kind man to all who knew him. His love for his family was immeasurable. A man of such character and compassion was a gift to all who crossed his path.

Buster was born in Glace Bay (Table Head) and left in his youth as he joined the army, then proceeded to become dedicated with the Merchant Navy Corp. Once his term had ended with serving the country he loved, he built his life as a dedicated husband and father with his family in Ontario. He worked the remainder of his life with Kingsway Trucking as a truck driver.

His love and passion for driving did not cease upon his retirement. With his return home to Cape Breton, Buster lived to drive daily. To all who knew him this became his life. We all can enjoy our memories of the pleasures he got from driving the many roads of this island he so loved.

Buster also cherished animals of all kinds. Daily he would prepare food for the flocks of birds which he loved to feed as they arrived in his yard. Visits by many pets and their owners to his home made him feel loved and happy. Kelly was his joy.

I know you're with Mama now Daddy.
The love of your life, the woman you so missed.
Kiss her on the cheek for me. I will miss you always,
I love you forever. My father, My friend.

Buster was a former resident of Wilheminia Street, Glace Bay.

He is survived by one son, David, Glace Bay; three sisters, Sarah Deveaux and family, Rose Stevenson and family and Shirley Aucoin and family, all of Glace Bay; two brothers, John and Tom (Butch) and family, both of Ontario; two grandchildren.

Most important of all, the best friend Daddy ever had, the daughter he never had, and they loved one another truly from the heart, was Debbie McNabb from Glace Bay.

Buster was predeceased by his parents, Patrick and Margaret (MacNeil) Connelly and his wife, the former Sheila MacLean

There will be no visitation. Cremation has taken place under the direction of V.J. McGillivray Funeral Home, 16 Reserve St., Glace Bay (849-4505).
