In memory of those who have Crossed the Bar
TATE, Ronald James (Jim) - Age 88, of Dartmouth, passed away peacefully at home on April 23, 2021. Jim was born in Toronto, Ont., to Elizabeth and Albert Tate. He served in the Royal Canadian Navy for 25 years (ret. 1976), and later worked as an accountant for the Halifax-Dartmouth Bridge Commission, retiring in 1997. He was most at home walking through the woods with a dog at his side. He loved reading (Westerns were a favourite), cycling, swimming, jogging, and road trips to the Valley - never complete without a stop at Hennigar's for ice cream. Jim is survived by his wife of 62 years, Maureen (Evans); and daughters, Kathleen Dauphinee (David), Karen Tate, and Susan Tate; and granddaughter, Michelle Dauphinee. Ever remembered by siblings, Albert Tate (late Valerie) and Eileen Driver (Arn). He was preceded in death by sisters, Kathleen Tate and Joyce Carley. Memorial donations may be made to the Nova Scotia Nature Trust.
