GRANDMA ARBOUR
Theresa Bourrie Arbour was born on 11 November 1913 and grew up in Victoria Harbour. She was one of the six children of Mary Jane Fox and JohnBourrie. Mr. Bourrie worked at the grain elevator in Port McNicoll. Theresa remembers going as a child tovisit her Bourrie Grandparents in Port Severn. The trip was made by horse and buggy and sleigh in the wintertime. The Bourrie's had a livery there andmade deliveries of groceries, etc across the ice in the winter time. Theresa's firstdays of schoolwere at the Newtonville School when she was 7 years old. She remembers it was a one room school andgetting there was a long walk for a little girl. When the family moved back to Victoria Harbour, Theresa went to school there. Victoria Harbour in those days was very different from today. The lumbermill was the hub of the village and was just north of where the IGA is now and stretched from there to the government dock. Theresa remembers taking her skates to the millto be sharpened. The railwaystation was on the south side of the track across from the mill. The school Theresa attended later became the shoe factory. Theresa remembers two boats "The Breeze" and "The Ida" which came into Victoria Harbourtotake workmen to the elevator atPortMcNicoll. After the lumber mill closed many men went to work in the Port's elevator. At fourteen years of age Theresa went to work. She worked as a housekeeper for a couple of years before going to work atthe Martyrs' Shrine. At that time peoplecame to the Shrine to spend their holidays and might be there for a coupleweeks. Mr. Belanger was in charge of the dining room and Theresa waited on tables there. Theresa's sister worked for Mr. Narcisse Arbour looking after his little girl, andTheresa and her sister visited the home frequently. It was there that she met Lawrence or Butch as he was called- his dad was the village butcher. Butch was a hockey player playing for the Hamilton Pats, Toronto Stock Yards, and on a Midland team. Afterhis dad retired, Butch ran the butcher shop. The young couple were married in 1936, in the Roman Catholic Church which has since burned down.The Arbours had three daughters and a son. All but the youngest were born at home. The last child wasborn inthe hospital in Midland. Butch passed away in 1967 and for many years Theresa stayed in their home at Victoria Harbour. However, three years ago,after a period of health problems, she came to Georgian Manor. Shortly there after she had togoto Toronto General for a heart bypass. Now her days are spent pleasantly at the Manor. She enjoys lifehere and is a real Bingo player. Her great grandson comes to visitoftenand is a special friend of Marie Lefaive. We wish you many more yearsofhealth andhappiness here with us Theresa.
