FRAN FOANCE Fran has worked with us on a part-time basis for the last several years. Usually she is working "behind the scenes" setting up the sales or on telephone, books or computer, but lately she has been working at the auction sales also, displaying the finer linens & dishes & keeping everything running smoothly "on the floor". Fran can turn her hand to anything from chopping wood (she does her own) to seamstress work. She resides in Durham with her two children. Isn't she elegant here modeling furs at an auction. |
|
MARGIE ANDREWS Margie has been with us for over 5 years now at the desk & everyone who knows her is aware of her great work. She knows everybody and nothing goes on from here to Halifax she doesn't know about. She is a real asset to our business. She resides in Kemptown with her husband & two sons. Her older son, Ryan, worked for us in his last school year. She's involved in everything in the community, in particular, very active on a youth ball team. Quite recently her group was involved in the Special Olympics and won the gold. That gives them a chance at the Special Olympics in Greece in the summer of 2011. |

KATHLEEN FOANCE Kathleen is the cute little one with big dimples when she smiles. She is 17 now and in High School. She lives in Durham with her mother, Fran. She recently returned from an trip to England where she visited with her sister who teaches school there. In this photo she was posing as "Anne of Green Gables" when she had the hat and basket up for sale in auction. She and Fran work most of the Holiday and On-Site Auctions. |

Some details on our "old" Staff:
DANA FRASER was with us over 5 years until he finished his schooling
in 2009. He was a born hunter and loves the woods. He has
remained a nice, energetic, enthusiastic young fellow who is still working
locally.
He often drops in to see us and we enjoy Dana's continued friendship.
Photo was taken of Dana when he modeled an army highlander's kilt to be sold
at one of the auctions.
CHRIS FRASER worked for us for
over 2 years from 2008 to 2010. He resides with his family in Loch
Broom. His love lies in the mechanical line...he can fix almost
anything put before him. Although he'd never worked on anything larger
than a 4-wheeler before, Donnie took him up to N.B. when we did the auction
there and in a couple hours, he had the tractor going that full blown
mechanics had worked on for days (the tractor hadn't been started for over
10 years). With his love for cars and engines and his natural aptitude, he landed a job with MacCulloch
Truck Repair in Blue Acres where he works 2-3 evenings a week while
completing high school & full time during the summer--up to his armpits in
grease and loving it.
COLIN FRASER worked with us for over a year in 09 and 10 and a couple
months in 2011. He resides with his family in Loch Broom and also is very
interested in the mechanical line. He's got several years of
school to complete, still young and energetic. Good luck in
whatever you pursue, Colin.
COLTEN JESSOME worked with us for a year beginning in the summer of 2010. He is in Grade 11 at
the Truro High School and is 17. Colten lives in Kemptown with his family.
Mudding and texting belong to him.
JANET-MAE FOANCE worked for us in 2009 and early 2010 when she had
time available during her last year of University and before securing her
position in teaching in England. Many of the audience will remember
her as the model when we sold several new coats at auction.....she swirled
up and down the middle aisle like a professional. She was a girl who set her
goal on teaching and let nothing get in her way. When she was told
that nothing was available around here, she went further afield and
fulfilled her dreams of teaching in England.
MATT LEES started with us in the spring of 2007. He
completed high school in the new school at Alma in spring of 2009 and is now
off to St.F.X. He was a quiet young lad who dearly loves skiing, but
we hear he's loving it at the X now, but working hard to complete his
training and looking forward to getting out in the world. He says one
of the main things he's learned from auctions is to "keep it simple", buy
only necessary pieces of furniture and make sure they don't weigh a ton.
Matt has been back with us for a couple auctions this year after university
finished and will be working us some auctions this summer. He hopes to
complete his Engineering Degree in 2 years.
DARCY ROSS was with us for about a year and is now working at Michelin
along with going to Community College. He is is shown at Soccer, his
number one passion in school. We understand after his training, he is
working locally.
.
TYLER READ (yes, that is the correct spelling) Tyler has just finished
work with us in 2007 and is has taken a position at Michelin. He
has worked with us for over 3 years. He is very strong and capable, a
good talker and able to handle very responsible jobs at his age. He
has been involved in boxing during his school years. We understand he
is now working in Prince Edward Island. Here he is with
his dog, Bronson:
RYAN ANDREWS finished work with us the fall of 2006. He
went to Dalhousie University, having won scholarships there through his
involvement in "Reach for the Top" where he and his team won cross-Canada in
2005. He was out for a couple years and now understand he is back in
university.
TY REDMOND was with us for a couple years during high school. We
understand he completed his training and is now gainfully employed in this
area, but we have not hear from him for some time. He's a real nice
kid and we hope he does well.
MEGAN SULLIVAN was with us during her high school years in the late
90's. We understand she is doing great, completed University and now
working in Ontario. We we so pleased to hear from her every Christmas.
COLIN ROSS worked with us for several years in early 2000. He is
doing great working out West...into the big money. He and Duck were in
to visit when they were home for Christmas 2008. He is really looking
great and happy where he is, but always glad to get back to Mamma's good
cooking!
DONALD "DUCK" CAMERON was with us for several years in early 2000 also.
We were so pleased to see him this Christmas 2008....he told us all about
his job out in Calgary--a window washer (My uncle was a window washer in New
York in the 50's, so this was of big interest to me).....it's not a simplified thing.
"Duck" said he is suspended on the high risers hundreds of feet above the
ground - big money, but some scary! You'll have to ask him yourself
some of the sights he sees in the windows there!
CAMERON MACDONALD was with us for several years & finished schooling in
2008. He went out to Calgary and is gainfully employed there. Here he is shown at
one of the last auctions he worked with us at an old place in Landsdowne
(not showing here are the long golden locks he sported when he first started
working for us--some of the ladies swooned when he flipped this beautiful
hair back...one lady even paid him $10.00 to run her fingers through his
hair). May of 2011 we received a long telephone call from Cameron out
west...He's doing great and happy with his accomplishments. Donnie was
so glad to hear he got onto a really great job out there making big money
and as he works on the job, he will be earning his degree.
MATT ROLFE worked with us for about three years until he completed Grade
12. He is now employed in Calgary. He was a quiet young fellow--very
nice and polite...always did his work well.
MIKE ROLFE completed his Grade 12 at the new Northumberland Regional
High School and immediately moved to Calgary. Last time we heard from
him, he was making $30 plus an hour and that he's planning to come back home
in the summer of 2009 to get married. Every now and again he
phones but unfortunately, we usually miss his call and he just leaves a
message that he's doing good. Photo was taken of Mike with our
grandnephew James McCaffrey, after Mike's KO at the Boxing Match there; also
a photo of Mike and Donnie there too.
MAX RUSSELL was with us in the mid-80's for several years. Just
received an e-mail from him (it is so nice when the old staff keep in touch
with us old foggies). Max is now living on Gabriola Island in
the southern gulf islands of BC with his wife Gail & son, Robert,
where they built a house and own an Accounting & Business Service.
AL LANGILLE was also with us in the mid-80's for a couple years & is now is living in Pictou where he is married with family & doing
fine....had a nice chat with him this summer.
CHARLES BOND
worked with us for a short while when he was in High School
back in the 80's. His big dream was to become an RCMP officer, but in
those times, there was an overload, so he had to settle for another vocation
after getting further education. He has been out in Calgary gainfully
employed for the nearly 20 years, but we just heard great news from his
overjoyed mother, Joyce, who also worked for us years ago when we owned the
Consulate Restaurant. About a year ago when Charles heard of the
shortage now in the RCMP, he took the longshort chance and went to see if
they would accept him at the age of 39. He started their rigorous
26-week training course early last year and in the 17th week, his
mother-in-law died. Even though he knew he was not able to leave the
training program without losing his place, he felt it was necessary to go
back to the funeral with his wife in the Philippines. By the time they
got back to Canada, 2 weeks had lapsed and he could not continue the course
as planned.. However, they agreed to keep him on if he would do
the 26 weeks of training all over again which he did. He made it!
His mom went out to the graduation ceremony in 2009. Constable Charles
Bond is now stationed in a small town in Alberta. We hope to get a
photo of him in his red coat here.
Following is an e-mail rec'd from Charles 10/24/09:
"HI Don and
Verna,
It has been at least 20 years since I worked for both of you. It is "scary"
how time flies! I am happy to hear both of you are still doing so
well. My mom told me she still keeps in contact with the both of you. Thank
you for giving me my first job and being such great friends to my mom, dad
and myself. Much appreciated!!
I have been living in Alberta since 1997 in a town called Morinville about
30 minutes to downtown Edmonton. It is a quiet town very similar to Pictou.
I have been married for almost 3 years now to an "AWESOME" woman name Grace.
I met her almost 4 years ago and I am happily married.
I am a RCMP officer in Athabasca, Alberta since Feb/09. It is a good job as
every day is not the same. Anyway take care, we hope to come home next
summer. I would like to see the both of you for sure!!!
CHARLES"
MAXINE MACLELLAN worked with us for the short time in the
80's....we understand she is involved in nursing and is now married with
children living in the Scotsburn area. Last account from her was to
the effect that she and her husband adopted a little Chinese baby.
Here's a
copy of the E-mail received from Maxine's Husband
(Melvin). We actually employed Melvin also when he was young, but that
was in another capacity, "The Consulate Restaurant" in Pictou, which we
opened in the early 80's and sold around 1985 (as we were wearing out doing
both jobs and had to choose--the choice was the Auction business) And,
yes, we certainly do remember Melvin very fondly.
Hi Verna (and Donnie),
I stumbled upon your website while doing some research on the Hermit of
Gully Lake. I ended up reading through the whole site and enjoyed it very
much. I saw my wife's name, Maxine MacLellan, on the old staff list and
thought I'd send an update. By the way, I worked for you at the Consulate as
a busboy when I was 16, so I, too, am a former employee of yours (although
not of the auction)! Maxine does indeed work as a licensed practical nurse
at Valley View Villa in Riverton. I work for the Department of Community
Services as a social worker. We have 3 children: Genesis who is a girl aged
7, Gabrielle who is a girl aged 4 and Garrison who is a 17 month-old boy. We traveled to China in June of 2005 to adopt Gabrielle. Our other two
children are biological. We are in the process of adopting an infant son
from Ethiopia to complete our family. We hope to travel to Ethiopia in the
Spring to bring him home. We live in Sundridge just outside Pictou.
On behalf of Maxine and myself, I would just like to say that we both have
many fond memories of working for you and Donnie. I remember that you
trusted me enough when I first started that I actually even made out my own
paycheques! That meant a lot to me. I remember having lots of fun with
Donnie in the kitchen. I still tell people stories about him
exploding houseflies in the microwave! A young person's first job is so
important as it sets the stage for the rest of their lives and you two have
left a great impression on so many young people.
I will attach a picture of our family. Bye for now,
Melvin Frosst 11/08
SHELDON MACLEOD who was with us for about 6 years in the 90's
completed his University Training graduating with a Bachelor of Theology
degree. He was Pastor in the Glad Tidings Church in Moncton for about
7 years and has now attained the position of Registrar with the Atlantic
Baptist University there. He enjoys his position there feeling he is
able to help young people choose the right path in life. He resides in
Moncton, Sheldon's desire from the first day we met him was to
preach and he has certainly attained that position. He preached at Camp
Evangeline in Debert (PAOC) this summer for the first week of Adult Camp.
Donnie & I had a chance to go on Friday July 22/11 and he really is a good
preacher--first time we've heard him. After the service, the lady in
the seat beside me leaned over and said, "Isn't he a great preacher"....and
I heard myself say something I hated my mother doing when I was a kid and
had attained awards--I leaned back over to the lady and said, "Oh, we know
Sheldon--he worked for us for years when he was in school & university &
he's a good friend..." and on and on--just so proud of Sheldon's
achievements...because after spending many years working (and having fun)
with all these kids that we employ, they become like our own & we care so
much what they make of their lives. Not just a good preacher,
but Sheldon is a wonderful person all around--so caring and loving.
And to boot all that, he is still handsome (tall, dark & handsome). He
had his three kids with him for the week--his oldest boy is 13 and near the
height of Sheldon, his 11 year old girl is a little sweetheart, but we never
saw the little fellow--there's so much going on for kids at Camp, he was out
doing something. Here's a photo of Sheldon & Donnie taken after the
service at camp:
Here's a copy of the E-mail received from Sheldon
(rec'd in 2004) before he became Registrar at ABU:
"Hi Donnie & Verna:---A
website, how times have changed!
Well, let's see how things have changed with us. We have three kids
now. Anthony is 6, Christine is 4 and Graeme is a year and a half.
I feel old.
Theresa is studying to be a teacher and will be done at the end of this
year. She's a busy student, mom, church worker and lots more.
I'm working on a Master's Degree and working as the Associate in Moncton
Church still (7 years now, 1 year longer than I was with you guys, but only
half the enjoyment).
We don't get home much, only a couple of times a year. I may as well
live in Africa. Oh well, we enjoy the work and our family.
Periodically I get updates from those around home about you guys. I
hope things are going well for you, I'm sure that you both are still working
like crazy. What else is new?
Be sure to tell Donnie I think of him often. He's been more of a
father figure & influence on me and my ministry than anyone else has.
He'll be glad to know that I call Anthony "Boy" all the time & have shown
him, feed my kids from the drive-thru at McDonald's, drive by houses in
Pictou County and say "Did that one", often say "You're not gonna let a
woman get away with that" to guys, and make sure to figure out people and
church things for what they really are. All good things he taught me,
except for the McDonald's.
Anyway, a night home with Theresa calls, so I'm going to go. Have a
great summer. If you are up this way, give us a call--we'd love to
hear from you. Blessings, Sheldon"
KATHY LEADBEATTER worked with us during the late 90's and we understand she
is presently employed at Michelin on contract.
DARCY TINGLEY formerly from Durham who worked for us during the
latter half of the 90's completed his university education and is now
employed in Calgary. His parents live across from us and keep us up-to-date
on his doings.
Letter received from Darcy:
"Hello Verna and Don,
How are things?
I stumbled upon your webpage yesterday, just checking it out. I think I
will update you.
I still live in Calgary....the nicest city in Canada. We don't get as much
as that dirty white stuff you guys call snow here. For the past 2 years I
have worked for an On-line Pharmacy. The second largest in Canada that
employs 100 people. But recently the industry has come under attack and the
Canadian federal government wants to shut it down. If the government puts
restrictions on the pharmacy the company is already planning to move
operations overseas. They recently purchased several pharmacies in
Australia and Europe. So with all this happening I decided to look for
other employment because I'm not sure how much longer my job will be around
and i don't really want to move overseas. I still use you guys as references
so be prepared.
Other than that, I'm not married...yet. Its starting to feel like it.
So that's my life in a nut shell.
I still see Colby often, he's bigger and stronger than before. He gets up
every morning at 5 to work out...can you imagine!! I'm a toothpick compared
to him. Got to go.
Cheers, Darcy Ph 403-607-5541"
Jan 2011--Haven't heard from Darcy for ages--spoke with his father and tells
us Darcy's been married now for a couple years and gave us a photo of him,
his wife, Horn Ou & their Twins. Can you believe this is the Darcy we
knew--all settled down with a family:
MICHAEL COLBY (or just "Colby" as we knew him)--the real big fellow
who worked with us in the late 90's up to 2002 is now living in Calgary
where he had been employed on the oil rigs. Colby is only in his early
20's but we understand he was experiencing some heart irregularities so he
came off the oil rigs. Last thing we hear about he, he was coming
along good physically & back into the exercise & work.
TROY NICKERSON, who was with us in the late 90's is now back from
University and living in Pictou County in his own apartment. He now has
full-time employment with Michelin and is working his way up the ladder
there, having recently been given a much higher position and, of course,
much higher income.
BUDDY MACINTOSH worked with us in the late 90's. Many of you
will remember his graphics at the auctions about that time. His desire
was to be an art designer and eventually do contemporary comic books.
Buddy could turn his hand to anything artistic. Finally, in his mid
20's, Buddy went to College and received a degree in Art..... but once he
got a taste of knowledge, he obviously desired more.....he thereafter
entered University where he is now in his 4th year studying
Psychology. Best of luck, Buddy--you had the ability to go far--you aimed
big and you are making it, in the face of much adversity. (we well
remember how the teacher in his school told him he would never make anything
of himself--power to you Buddy!!!)
VERNA LLOYD, who worked with us for years in the 80's and early 90's in the
clerking department, is now retired and resides in Westville with her
husband, Danny.. Verna and Danny have remained two of our best friends
over all the years. We are glad to still often see them both at the
auctions.
ANDREW AUSTIN who worked with us for about 5 years in the 90's
has his Masters Degree in History and is teaching in Northwest Territories
where he resides with his wife and daughter. Andrew loves hunting and
fishing so he is getting his fair share of it there and on the last letter
received from him after their daughter was born, he was teasing Donnie about
the big fish up there. November 2008....we just learned Andrew & Kim
recently had twins...we are hoping he will e-mail photos of all the family.
DAVID DEMETRE who also worked with us for about 5 years in the 90's is
now a Surveyor. The last we heard on David, he was back working in
Pictou County. We often see David driving around in his truck with his
beautiful dog.
TYLER WILSON worked with us in the mid 90's and decided he did
not want a paperwork position for life and trained to be a Welder.
For some time he was working in Boston making very high wages, so that he
was since able to come back to Pictou County and purchase a home in the
Scotsburn area; and we understand he is employed in construction welding
around this area now. We understand he is now married with a new baby.
TIM WILSON, Tyler's brother, worked with us in the late 80's.
He is now in a Management Position at Shaw Subaru in New Glasgow.
NATALIE SAWLER, who was with us in the early 90's, is married and
living in Creston B.C. Natalie's husband, Shaun is a big fellow--you
wouldn't want to tackle him. They've got a baby now -
Abigail....visited here in the spring of 08. Both Natalie & Shaun are
heavily involved in church work out west.
NIVEN SAWLER, who was also with us in the early 90's, is now a Pastor and we
understand he is preaching in California. Last summer he married a young
lady from Florida.
APRIL STEWART (the little blonde in the kilt--as she is often
remembered--mid 90's) in now a Chartered Accountant doing exceptionally well
with a Halifax Firm and traveling all over Canada in her line of work.
April has been transferred out to Calgary in 2008 with the same firm and did exceptionally well
there, however, moved back to Nova Scotia when her mother took ill in
2010.....still with the same firm. We attended her wedding in August
2010 and here she is--absolutely beautiful still at 29:
DANNY STEWART worked with us in the mid-90's for a while and went on
to be a Welder. He is now employed with a construction firm in Pictou.
SCOTT WATSON, another from the 90's staff, was married in
South Carolina where he and his wife are still residing. He has
computer training so is probably involved in that line there. Some of
you may remember him by the name "Sailor".
Letter received from Scott: (2008)
Hey Donnie and Verna,
It sure has been a while. Too long in fact! I stumbled upon your website
and thought it best to write you a little email. I am glad to see things
are going well for you (well I hope they are going well).
Things are going very well for me here in Columbia, South Carolina. I was
married in 2004, and since then me and my wife Tami have had a Daughter who
was born on November 8th 2006. We have a nice little house
here, 2 dogs and a picket fence. Who would have thought huh? Currently I
am a stay-at-home Dad, and part-time home renovator. I am still awaiting my
paperwork to legally work in the US, but doing fine nonetheless.
I just wanted to tell you how great it was to be employed by Pidgeon
Auctions while I was a teenager, I know if it wasn’t for you 2 I would have
been getting myself into trouble. I just wanted to let you know how much of
an impact you 2 had on my life, how much you have taught me, how much
everyone who I worked with taught me. I feel that I am a better person for
it. Even though I haven’t seen you guys in years, know that you are still
in my thoughts, and I wish you all the best in the world!
I am attaching a picture for you guys to see of my family. I just want to
thank you again for your love and support over the years. Best Wishes,
Scott Watson
RYAN WATSON, Scott's brother, we understand, is gainfully employed in
this area. We recently met him when attending his grandfather's
funeral.....he's really quite cute with his little beard, bought a house out
the country, has a nice girlfriend and is doing well.
MARK HILL, who was with us in the early 90's, is now a Chartered Accountant
and working in Western Canada. We understand he is married to a nice
girl from out that way & has a child now.
JIMMY MORRISON, who was with us for several years in the 80's is living in
Halifax where we understand he is employed in computer work.
GLYNN STEWART, on our staff in the early 80's now resides in Calgary
with his wife, Caroline. They are enjoying life out there.
BETH MACKENZIE, who worked with us in the late 80's is now
married and residing in the Valley. Beth had a beautiful voice and even composed
many songs. We understand she is still using her talent in that area.
AL LANGILLE, worked for us in the 80's....one of the Pictou boys. Just
caught a photo of him working on the PEI Ferry in July 2011:
TIM STEWART, on our staff in the early 80's, always loved to cook
and, of course, became a chef. He now resides in Halifax.
GORDON MACKENZIE (or "Moose" as he was known in those days) worked in
the early 80's with us. He was a big fellow and comical too. We
are told he now lives in New Brunswick where with his wife and family where
he is employed in the computer line.
JONATHAN MASLOW, on our staff in the late 80's married a girl in Texas and
to our knowledge is still living there soaking in the sun and gainfully
employed.
RALPH YEO from Halifax worked with us in the 80's and later went on
to complete his Theology degree in Maine. Last time we were in contact
with him, he was a Youth Pastor in the Valley area.
AARON GUNN (or "Tiny" as we called him) was employed with us in the
90's--he's the one who wore size 16 shoes and stood 6'6" and carried a sofa
by himself above his head. He is now a big truck driver and last time
we heard, he was operating those big trucks that haul the huge logs off the
mountains (3 to a load) out in British Columbia.
ROB WOLFE who was with us in the early 80's completed his University
training in Antigonish and apparently settled down there with his wife and
children. We were so pleased to receive this
e-mail from Rob July 2010 (often wondered how he was doing):
"Hi Donny and Sam:
Was just on your website and checked out the "Old Staff" page. I guess I now
belong in that category!
I am currently living and working in Antigonish. After working with
you folks, I finished my music degree, went on for an education degree and
two masters degrees. Not bad for a high school dropout! I currently
teach and am Guidance Counselor at a local High School and teach part time
in the education faculty at St. F.X. I have three grown kids,
all doing well, a fashion designer, a gym teacher in training and a budding
business tycoon. (need any videography done?!?) I always remember with good
feelings the two summers
working (and living in) "The Consulate" as a waiter and all the auctions
in various homes and halls in northeastern Nova Scotia. I learned a lot
about furniture and human behavior and take many good memories with me, like
carrying pianos down the rickety stairs out of old third story apartment
houses and helping save a woman's life by giving her the Heimlich maneuver.
(She sent me a thank you card with $5 bucks in it, remember?)
Anyway, thanks for the memories and the start in life, you folks were a
blessing and I appreciated the care you extended to me and all your staff.
See you at an auction soon.
All the best, Rob Wolf"
AARON PATRIQUIN was employed with us in the early 80's. He
is married with children and the last time we heard from him, he was pastoring at a large Wesleyan
Church in Ontario.
The VAN HARDINGSVELT BROTHERS - we had lost tract of them since they worked for
us in the late 80's. One of them turned up at an auction in Cape
Breton in the summer
of 2009 with a very pretty wife and a couple lovely children. They are
living in Ontario
and were just driving through Baddeck on a trip through Cape Breton and saw
the signs for the auction. He had told his wife he worked in the
auctions when he was younger
and decided to take her in to see what an auction was like--only to find it
was us doing
the auction and there he stood, big as life, in the doorway--beaming with a
big smile. I recognized his face but couldn't put a name to him--he
had to tell me--over 20 years
later and he was still as handsome as ever. I am afraid to write his
first name as I
always got their names mixed up....they were both about the same age when
they
worked for us and we would always call them "the" VanHardingsvelts.
MATTHEW STROLTZ formerly from Halifax worked for us in the late
80's and after graduating, we are told he went into demolition work in the
City. Later he moved to England where we are given to understand he is
working in a Public Relations capacity.
JOE STROLTZ, Matthew's brother, also worked for us in the late 80's.
We understand that he and his wife now reside in Vancouver where is is
heavily involved in Worship Leadership.
CORY was the little fellow that worked for us in the late 80's who
always wore red braces and a white shirt. We understand he completed his degree in
Theology and thereafter pursued his calling and went on to India as a
Missionary which was always his dream. Its been years since any of us have heard from him.
MATTHEW LEBLANC also from out late 80's staff pursued the Ministry
and is said to be a pastor in Northern New Brunswick now.
GERALD KENDRICK was formerly from Halifax & worked with us in
the late 80's. Last thing we hear from him, he too was a Youth
