I missed recognizing the name at the time of Archie's death. But it is never too late to tell you how much he meant to the residents of Leads Drive and Rochester Street. His wonderful 'Santa in his slay' adorned the roof of the house on the corner of Leads and Rochester every Christmas for many years. Then when he got too old to climb on the roof he placed it on the lawn. When his friend Janet McLeod sold the house he approached the new owner and asked if he could continue putting it on the lawn at Christmas time for the local children. This wish was granted, and not only the local children continued to enjoy it, but also us adults. It was a real part of the Christmas season.
I also remember his name on all the lifts (elevators) at UNB Fredericton. I believe that I also met him as a volunteer at the Fredericton Community Kitchen. He was a great guy. I am privilaged to have know him.

Dear Janet and family. I was saddened to read of Archie’s death today while we are vacationing in Florida. He was a fine man and I enjoyed having him as a patient while he was under my care. I was impressed by the excellent care you provided him during his period of declining health. I hope you are well and please share my condolences with your family. Best regards, Dr. Peter Fraser
Jan, I was so sorry to hear of Archie's passing. He was such a constant figure at the CWC and always had a smile or a story to tell. I played with his curling stone on Wed and it brought back such happy memories.

I know the days and years without him will be lonely but memories will help.
Love to all Myrna
families,
I am pleased to say I have had the honor of knowing Archie for many years and we spent sharing our stories and a
few laughs. He will certainly be missed. Our deepest condolences to the family.
Dearest Jan: Needless to say, Jan, Harold and I are very sad that Archie has passed. We send you our deepest condolences. He will be missed by many. We are so glad we have so many good memories. He was an extraordinary neighbor in every way. He made our years on Oak Avenue a pleasure and at times an adventure. A better friend we won't find again. Our memories are boundless. His fondness for our Sophie was so appreciated because as we both know he wasn't really a "dog" person. His sense of humor wasn't wasted on us - we enjoyed his stories very much and can remember many of them.
I used to curl with Archie really nice guy what a kind soul always put a smile on my face when I talked to hu I would always ask Janet how he was when I did not see him in person he will be missed
Nothing but great memories celebrating special occasions with Archie, Jan, Nana (Carrie) and Papa (Vernon) every time we got together! My deepest condolences.
Very sorry for your loss Jan, I got to know Archie through Keith Thomas when I moved to Fredericton in 97 and as you can recall we would get together socially through the years. He was a wealth of knowledge and good humour and I have missed having time with him since moving away. God speed Archie.
Many fond memories of Archie in the elevator trade, especially the lobster do with several elevator constructors. - Paul Russell, a retired Otis employee.
Dear Jan, my deepest condolences. Uncle Archie was a wonderful uncle and a loving brother to my mother and aunts. He was also the reason my parents met. I am so glad he had you to share his life with. My thoughts are with you.
