<div itemprop="description">CURRIE, Sr. Harold Roy “Jack” <br>Of Beaver Bank, passed away peacefully on Sunday, July 17, 2016 at the age 87. Husband of Norma for over 64 years; father of Peggy Ferguson (Lloyd), Rosa Carr (Ross) and Timmie Currie (Wendy); grandfather of Ryan and Kyle Ferguson, Charity, Meghan, and Owen Carr, and Blair Colp. Also survived by brothers, Michael, Phillip and Garnet Currie and sister Jacqueline King. <br>Predeceased by his infant children Norma Dee and Marchant Osborne; his parents Clarence and Edith Currie; brothers, Lloyd Currie and Clarence John Currie; sisters Kathleen “Kay” Mahoney and Corrine Whitman. Harold was a renowned professional decorative plasterer who was often called on to repair various religious statues and architectural buildings in Halifax, including the Bank of Nova Scotia building and the statues in Mount Saint Vincent University. He was once called by the Vatican to perform restorative work, but his fear of flying prevented him from leaving. He also was a former Maritime professional and amateur wrestling champion from his early teens until his mid-30’s. He loved the outdoors and especially hunting with his son Timmie. A special thank you to cousins Barb Binder and Edythe Currie for their love, care and compassion during Jack’s final hours. Visitation will take place on Friday, July 22 from 6-8 p.m. with prayers at 7 p.m. in the Atlantic Funeral Home, 125 Sackville Drive. In accordance with Jack’s wishes, no graveside funeral service will be held. For those wishing donations to the SPCA would be appreciated.
