URQUHART, CAROLYN FAITH - Carolyn Faith Urquhart (nee Sweeney), passed away peacefully at home in Fredericton on September 6, 2014 just one week shy of her 81st birthday. Carolyn was born on September 13, 1933 in Durham Bridge, New Brunswick. She was predeceased by her parents Edith and Burt Sweeney, her sisters Ann, Frances, Ruth and her second husband Kenneth Scott. Carolyn will be deeply missed by her sister Rose Halman (Ottawa) and son Stephen Urquhart (Cindy) in Calgary. She will also be missed by her grandchildren, great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews. Carolyn was a long term member of the Imperial Rebekah Lodge #102 Fredericton as well as the Holy Family Catholic Church. She worked many years at the Department of Natural Resources before her retirement. Carolyn wished that this poem be printed upon her passing as it had great meaning to her.
THE WEAVER
Written by B.M. Franklin (1882-1965)
My life is just a weaving
Between my Lord and me.
I cannot choose the colors
He weaves so skillfully.
Sometimes He weaveth sorrow
And I in foolish pride
Forget He sees the upper
And I the underside.
Not ‘til the loom is silent
And the shuttles cease to fly
Will God unroll the canvas
And explain the reasons why-
The dark threads are as needful,
In The Weaver’s skillful hands
As the threads of gold and silver
In the pattern He has planned.
