Myrer, Arnold Robert – Age 89, passed away at home on February 5, 2022.
Born in Porters Lake, he was a son of the late Robert and Rilla (Conrod) Myrer. He was predeceased by his wife, Eileen (Beck) and his son, Kevin.
Arnold began working in the construction industry at an early age and went on to have his own construction company building many homes and buildings around the metro area. In 1971 he became the manager with Shipley Greenhouses in Woodville, N.S. and later in 1975 with Plant Care in Enfield. He retired at the age of 60 in 1992. Arnold enjoyed his later years creating many wood working projects such as picture frames, jewelry boxes, glider rocking chair and stool, plant stands and a cradle to name few. He had an amazing ability to visualize things and build them without plans or instructions. He also became skilled at creating beautiful stained glass pieces.
Arnold was a great family man and spent extensive time with his daughter and grandchildren always being there when any of them needed something.
He also was a great support of his community and was a member of the Enfield Lions Club for over 40 years.
Arnold is survived by his daughter, Brenda Fletcher; grandchildren, Kevin, Krista and Kelsey; great-grandchildren, Kelton, Keaton and Kinsey; and sister, Irene Myrer.
There will be a graveside committal service later in the spring at St. Marks Anglican Church Cemetery in Porter's Lake.
