in 1918 in High River, AB, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Weldon, a family originally from Amherst, NS. A short time after she was born, she and her brother Raymond and the family moved back to Nova Scotia. It was in the lovely maritime town of Amherst, that Frances and Ray grew up and went to school. In 1938 Frances married her first husband, H.G. Longley, of the North Nova Scotia Highlanders. It was from this union that their son, Graham Jr. was born. Sadly, Captain Longley was a casualty of the assault on Normandy, France, (Juno Beach) just a little over 60 years ago. It was some time later that she met and married her second husband, Kenneth Bayley from Winnipeg, who was serving in the RCAF, Summerside, PEI. At the end of the Second World War, they moved to Winnipeg to settle down and raise their family. During this time in their lives they spent many happy hours with friends square dancing, their favourite pastime. After 30 years of living in Winnipeg, Frances and her husband moved west to retire, and spent a few years in High River, AB, before moving on to Victoria, Campbell River and finally to Courtenay, BC in 1987. Frances took great pride in her home and kept her cupboards stocked with tasty desserts as she loved to bake; her specialty being Nova Scotia Dutch rolls. She loved to paint as well as do needle point but she will mostly be remembered for her passionate love of animals, especially dogs, and over her lifetime she had many. She was predeceased by her husband, Kenneth in 2002 and her brother, Ray in 1994, and will be sadly missed by son Graham Bayley (Catherine) Burnaby, BC; daughter Carolyn Titus (Leonard) Campbell River, BC; sister-in-law Phyllis Ross (Bayley), Killarney, MB; granddaughter, Jessica Bayley, Burnaby, BC; grandsons, Steven Meyer, Edmonton; Scott Meyer, Vancouver; nieces, Geraldine McKay (Tom), New Glasgow, Nova Scotia; Marilyn Kittle (Bayley) Auburn, Washington; Karen Cummings (Jim) Killarney, MB and nephew Don Ross (Sandy), Winnipeg.

in Redvers, SK on June 4, 1911. He attended United College, graduating with a Gold Medal in Mathematics. He went to teach in Benson, SK, where he met and married Barby. During the Second World War, he was part of the D-Day assault moving on to the liberation of Holland. Returning to Canada, he taught veterans and completed his Master's Degree. In September, 1948, he began his teaching career in Winnipeg with the #1 School Division, teaching at Mulvey, Isbister, Earl Grey and TecVoc where he eventually became Mathematics Department Head. He had fond memories of his colleagues and particularly his students. Their friends and the tight-knit Rosedale/Riverview community enriched their years on McNaughton Avenue. Following J.D.'s retirement in 1986, he and Barby became "Winter Texans" spending many happy years at Pine to Palm in Weslaco, TX in the winter and at Victoria Beach in the summer. Family was very important to J.D. and Barby. Summers involved trips back to Saskatchewan, to Carlyle Lake and camping expeditions. They opened their home and hearts to extended family including his father, her mother, brother, and nephew. A quiet, soft-spoken man, J.D. lived his life trying to do what was right. Small in stature, he was generous in love and spirit.
