NOBLE. George Arthur (Art)
NOBLE. George Arthur (Art), age 88, of Swift Current and formerly Kyle area, passed away on October 15, 2004, at the Cypress Regional Hospital in Swift Current. A celebration of Art’s life was held at 2:00 p.m., Wednesday, October 20, at the First United Church with Reverend John Barker officiating and tribute by son, David Noble. Honorary pallbearers were all of those whose lives were touched by Art throughout the years. Art was predeceased by his loving wife, of 56 years, and best friend, Margaret, in 1995; father, William in 1979; mother, Edna in 1987; sister, Laudelle Scott in 1958; grandson, Kurtis Renton in 1989. Art is survived by two daughters: Marilyn (Leonard) Johnson of Moose Jaw; Elaine (Willard) Kondro of Lloydminster; son, David (Penny) Noble of Kyle; four grandchildren: Stacie (David) Noble-Wiebe of Swift Current; Vaughn (Tracey) Johnson of Moose Jaw; Kirby (Debbie) Renton of Lloydminster; Nadine (Ryan) Dyck of Swift Current; eight great grandchildren and special friend, Grace Powell. Art was born July 11, 1916, in Durham, Ontario. Later that year he and his family moved west and settled in the North Landing district near Kyle. At age 12 his future wife, Margaret Smith, daughter of Art and Bessie Smith, caught his eye at a birthday party for Joyce Sorenson. Margaret and family had just moved from Swift Current to the “Old Stone House” at Saskatchewan Landing. A former city girl, Margaret was all decked out in taffeta dress, silk stockings, and braids, a sharp contrast to the other children dressed in everyday school clothes. Art also caught Margaret’s attention as at age 12 he was driving his dad’s model T Ford. Art and Margaret were married in 1938 in Margaret’s family home, the “Old Stone House”. Art and Margaret lived in the Kyle area until moving to Swift Current in 1985. In the thirties Art worked for the Department of Highways and maintained a section of Number 4 Highway first with horses and later with a motorized patrol. In the early years he drove a team of three horses on a blade scraper getting 10 cents per hour for each horse and 30 cents per hour for the driver. Art always took pride in his work and received awards from the Sask. Motor Association for the best maintained stretch of highway in the province. In the fall of 1937 there was no work on the prairies so Art returned to Ontario to look for work and to renew family acquaintances. The future in Ontario didn’t seem that bright either so Art returned to the prairies. He worked on the family farm, ran the BA bulk fuel station in Kyle, and worked winters at his uncle Arthur McCrie’s furniture store in Swift Current. In 1943 Art joined the R.C.A.F. and spent 2 ½ years as an aero mechanic stationed in many airports in Canada. After his discharge in 1945 Art purchased land from Angus Gillespie and Albert Swain and also worked the family farm. In 1996, at age 80, Art was still an active participant on the family farm and celebrated 66 years of harvesting. Art was very active in the agricultural community and worked on various agricultural boards. He was a founding member and first chairman of Agricultural District Board 40 and was recognized by the board for his 20 years of service. For a number of years in the 50’s and 60’s Art operated an Illustration Station for the SC Experimental Farm. He was always interested in ways to improve farming and took various positions that increased his own knowledge and allowed him to pass it on to others. He was also involved with the White Bear Telephone Company, North Landing School Board and the Legion. Art always loved music and dancing. He and Margaret were very active in square and rounding dancing and they helped organize many clubs north of the river. After moving to Swift Current they danced with Swift Current clubs and were one of the dance couples on a video made by the Old Time Fiddlers. Throughout his life Art enjoyed many hobbies – beadwork, leatherwork, macramé, needlepoint, petit point, and woodworking to mention a few. His hands were always busy. He left a variety of masterpieces for his family and friends to remember him by, mementos to be treasured and passed on. Art enthusiastically shared his skills and knowledge with others either individually or at classes offered through the community college or through other organizations such as 4H, High C, and Lighted Schoolhouse. Art was strong, determined, positive and made things happen. He stressed that to succeed you must try. He was always seeking knowledge, whether through magazines or books. Art was very loving and supportive of his family and always expressed his pride in them. He adored his great grandchildren and since his recent cancer surgery, he marveled at the intricacy of the human body and the miracle that all his great grandchildren were born healthy. Art will be dearly missed by family and friends. As an expression of sympathy contributions may be made to the Kyle District Health Care Foundation, Box 70, Kyle, SK, S0L 1T0.
Funeral arrangements were entrusted to Parkside Memorial Funeral Home, Swift Current, SK.
