Obituary for Randall Arlie Thurber

March 29, 1957–July 24, 2019
It is with deep sadness that we must announce the sudden passing of Randy Thurber on Wednesday, July 24, 2019 in Whitewood, Saskatchewan. Born on March 29, 1957 in Digby, NS, he was the son of Claire (Merritt) and Baden Thurber.

Randy was a proud son, husband, father, grandfather and brother-in-law. He had a love for life and knew how to live it. He shared his passions with his boys and taught them how to ski, camp, canoe and ride a motorcycle. He always wanted everyone to be as happy as he was. Once his boys had grown, he took Paulette as his wife and taught her the very same things. From the beginning of their relationship to the end they shared all of the same passions and values and had the greatest adventures. Everything was shared together and with their families.

Randy was a long–standing manager at Charm Diamond Centre in Amherst and played a major role organizing the Bordertown Biker Bash. He was a friend to everyone and will be greatly missed by his family, friends, community and his motorcycle club, the Defenders. You could not ask for a better son, husband, father, brother-in-law or friend. He wore his heart on his sleeve and he saw the best in everyone.

Randy will be lovingly remembered by his wife, Paulette (LeBlanc) of Sackville, NB; his mother and father, Baden and Claire Thurber of Sackville, NB; his sons, Kristopher Baden (Christy) Thurber of Lantz, NS, Kevin Randall Thurber of Amherst, NS and Justin Mathieu White (Karine Myre) of Gatineau, QC; his grandchildren, Sadie Noelle, Liam Kevin and Ella Rose; his cousins, Roger (Anne) Tidd of Saulnierville, NS and Sandra Milbury of Windsor, NS; his mother and father–in–law, Andrea and Donald LeBlanc of Dieppe, NB; his sisters–in–law, Joanne (Brenda) of Memramcook, NB and Monique (Elaine) of Riverview, NB, as well as by several cousins and many friends.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Campbell’s Funeral Home, 89 Bridge Street, Sackville, N.B. (506) 364–8188. Visiting hours will take place at the Middle Sackville Baptist Church, 14 Church Street, Sackville, NB on Tuesday, July 30, 2019 from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 pm. The funeral service will take place at the Middle Sackville Baptist Church on Wednesday, July 31, 2019 at 2 pm with Pastor Malcolm Read officiating.

On Friday, August 2, a funeral service will be held for Randy in Kingston, NS, under the direction of Middleton Funeral Home, (902) 825–3448. The service will take place at the Kingston United Baptist Church, 695 Main Street, Kingston, at 2 pm. The burial will take place in the North Kingston Cemetery. www.middletonfuneralhome.com

In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Randy may be made to the charity of one’s choice. On–line condolences and sharing of memories may be forwarded to the family through our website www.campbellsfuneralhome.com or by visiting the funeral home Facebook page. www.campbellsfuneralhome.com
