Daughter Christina writes, "Donnie and Hazel lived all their married life in Bear Island NB. Before their marriage and for a while after, Hazel was a school teacher in various locations. Donnie farmed and worked in the woods, taking large lumbering contracts for the last several years."

The obituary for Donald's wife Hazel, gives this information: "Born at Scotch Settlement, she was a daughter of Leslie and Lily (Clarke) Sharpe. She was a graduate of the Provincial Normal School in 1923 and taught school for a number of years. She was a member of the Bear Island Baptist Church. She served the Church as Sunday School teacher for many years." [The Fredericton Daily Gleaner, 13 Dec 1994, p. 30]. The Fredericton Daily Gleaner of 15 Sep 1995 has a five generation picture of Hazel and her descendants. [Corey Book]
