Obituary of B. Woodworth

91, Berwick, Kings Co., passed away Saturday September 13, 2008, in the Evergreen Home for Special Care, Kentville. Born on May 9, 1917, in Berwick, she was a daughter of the late Lorimer and Florence (Haley) Woodworth. Pauline had worked for 25 years with Maritime Tel & Tel as a travelling instructress. After her retirement from MT&T, she worked part-time as a receptionist at the Western Kings Memorial Hospital, Berwick. Pauline enjoyed playing bridge and doing a variety of crafts including knitting, crocheting and chair caning. She was one of only a few people in the area who had mastered the art of chair caning and her skills were in high demand. She not only caned chairs for others, she also taught classes so that her students could cane their own chairs. Pauline was very proud of her flower gardens both at home and at her cottage in Turners Brook, where she spent a great deal of her time. Besides her parents, she was predeceased by brothers, Charles Woodworth, who was killed in action in the Second World War; Roland (Joyce) & James (Mildred) Woodworth; and her beloved cat, "Muffy". Surviving are nephews, Charles (Marianne) Woodworth, Berwick; Michael (Nancy) Woodworth, South Berwick; Robert (Jane) Woodworth, Berwick; nieces, Marie (Charles) White, Coldbrook; Marcia (Bob) Lutz, Turners Brook.
