Conrad; Borden Loraine, Q.C.

February 3, 2021 105 Condolences

Bordeninframe

Borden L. Conrad, Q.C., 72, of West Berlin, Queens County, died Friday, January 29th, 2021, at Queens General Hospital, Liverpool, Queens County, N.S., of Statin-Induced Myopathy.

He was born in West Berlin on August 6th, 1948, the only son of the late William L. Conrad and Lalia M. Conrad (née Wolf). He was predeceased by his older sister Maxine M. Hill  (née Conrad) of Windsor, Nova Scotia. He is survived by his wife of fifty years, (Margaret) Christine Conrad (née Cole) and two sons, Hayes W. Conrad and Nathaniel I.W. Conrad, both of Eagle Head.

He graduated with a B.A. from the University of King’s College, Halifax, Nova Scotia in 1969, and an LLB from Dalhousie University Law School in 1971.  Additionally, he received his B.Ed. from Dalhousie University in 1979.

He was called to the Bar on February 4th, 1972, and took up practice in Bridgewater, N.S., later expanding, with his partner, Thomas J. Feindel, to a second office in Liverpool, N.S., where, until recently, he continued his practice under the name Conrad & Feindel.

He was appointed Queen’s Counsel in 1988.

He was a passionate supporter of his parish, his community, the Anglican church, his family and friends. He was a lifelong member of St. John the Evangelist Anglican Church in Eagle Head, Nova Scotia, where he provided lay leadership, served on the parish vestry, and was a founding member of the book club. He also served as church historian, authoring the book So Great a Cloud of Witnesses. His faith was of deep importance to him and unwaveringly supported him through to the end.

He will be remembered as much for his warmth, humour, kindness and laugh as for his extensive knowledge encompassing, among other things, the law, genealogy, and local history.

Funeral arrangements are under the direction of Chandler’s Funeral Home. Condolences may be made at www.chandlersfuneral.com.   A private burial service will be conducted by The Rev. Cherry Workman, at Saint John the Evangelist Church Cemetery, West Berlin, N.S.

Due to Covid restrictions, a funeral service will be held at a later date.

The family wishes to especially thank Dr. Woodford and the caring staff at Queens General Hospital.

Memorial donations may be made to St. John Anglican Church., Eagle Head, N.S., or the Primate’s World Relief and Development Fund.

Offer Condolence for the family of Conrad; Borden Loraine, Q.C.

    Christene, Hayes and Nathaniel: Words cannot express our sadness when we received word of Borden’s passing. His presence in the second pew at church will be missed by many. His knowledge of our ancestry will never be duplicated by anyone and for all the times he passed this on to his extended family will always be appreciated. HIs kindness to me especially was always appreciated and I will hold his warm embrace on Christmas Eve close to my heart for the rest of my life. We know Borden’s love for his family will be a pathway forward for you and the many happy memories he shared with you will hopefully ease your grief now and in the days ahead. Our deepest sympathy goes out to you at this very sad time.

    Although I knew Borden for many years from the time he was our lawyer when we bought land here, I got to know him well over the past three years when I went in the church Council. He was a wonderful mentor to me, explained things in detail, and added occasional wonderful humour to our meetings. A most devout man. We will miss him sorely throughout the parish. My heartfelt condolences to the family.

  15. Charlene and Bruce White

    February 3, 2021 at 9:04 pm

    I was so saddened to hear of Borden’s passing and will miss seeing him at church and having a chat with him. He was truly a devoted member of the parish and will be missed by many. I will always remember how he welcomed my young grandchildren ( no matter how active or noisey they were) to our services.

    To Borden’s family, may your cherished memories of
    Borden help ease the pain of your loss.

    February 3, 2021 at 9:23 pm

    Christine, Hayes and Nathaniel, we are so very sorry to learn of Borden’s passing. Our mother, Shirley Whynot, had Conrad roots and loved that she and Borden were related and could talk about the family history. They saw each other at church regularly until Mom’s passing in 2015. After that, Borden always spoke so lovingly of Mom whenever we would see him. He had a kindness for family and the elderly which was so endearing. At this difficult time, know that our sympathy is with you and that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

    Hayes, Nathaniel and Christine I was sad to hear of Borden’s passing. I have many fond memories of him and always enjoyed our conversation. He will be greatly missed. When I did my grandfather’s eulogy he loved the poem that I wrote and asked for a copy of it. So I send this alone to him, knowing that he is in a better place where he is wrapped in love.

    I AM SIXTEEN

    I am Sixteen,
    In my soul, I am forever young.
    The wrinkles of time a mask.
    My aching joints, just a facade,
    A trick, a lark, a joke.

    I am Sixteen,
    With the wisdom, of all my years
    With the knowledge of how it is to grow old.
    But I am still sixteen.

    I am Sixteen,
    With so much more to do in this life,
    So much more of the world to explore,
    So many adventures left to have,

    I am sixteen.
    Right down to my very core.
    I feel alive, like anything is possible.
    But I am an old man.

    I am an old man,
    Who has led a full life.
    I have loved many, been loved by many,
    Had many adventures, many joys.

    My soul is now free.
    I am now forever sixteen.

    Bordan will be missed by his family members, fellow workers, business associeites and many extended Conrad relatives. He drew out on a piece of paper at his Bridgewater office where he and us came together from memory. He was always friendly, concerning, and dedicated in his legal profession.We share the grief to his family members. You have so much of Borden’s past to draw on to help you through the future.

    Sincere condolences to the Conrad family on this terrible loss. His memory is a blessing to many people that he helped over the years.

    To Christine and other family members,
    It is always incredibly difficult to lose someone close. I hope you will find some succour in knowing how most of us will remember Borden, as a lively, fun and funny (meaning mostly humorous but also a bit peculiar) person who it was always a pleasure to be with. Our thoughts are with you.

    Dear Christine, my heart goes out to you, and to Hayes and Nathaniel.
    To lose such a fine man, is a great loss indeed.
    Borden was such a charming fellow, always so interesting, and interested.
    It was alway so evident to me how much he loved you, Christine.
    It was also clear how much he cared and treasured, both his sons.
    I was also so impressed that Borden raised cattle.
    And him being a lawyer, and a Queens Counsel at that.
    An impressive and unique man.
    Please accept our sincere sympathy.
    May his memory always be a blessing.
    Sending love.

    Dear Christine and Family
    Please accept our deepest condolences for your tragic loss. We live in England so I haven’t seen Borden for some time but I have the most vivid memories of lively Boxing Day parties in Mahone Bay and fabulously hospitable evenings spent in your home. Borden is unforgettable – filled with a huge zest for life, an unrivalled sense of humour, warmth and an infectious joie de vivre. He combined these lovely qualities with a true sensitivity, sense of compassion and great kindness.
    He was a lovely, lovely man and you must all miss him dreadfully. May he rest in peace and may light perpetual shine upon him. Love from Susie Mendel and Nick Fishwick

  44. Yorke Tutty

    February 4, 2021 at 3:21 pm

    Christine, Hayes and Nathaniel,

    I am so sorry for your loss. Queens and Lunenburg Counties have lost a dedicated lawyer
    and historian. His recollections of local families and their origins and interrelationships, were
    truly amazing. Borden’s knowledge and appreciation of the law respecting land conveyancing
    in rural Nova Scotia were perhaps without equal.
    His contributions are chronicled in the public Land Registry, and will live on.

  45. Sheree Chandler

    February 4, 2021 at 4:39 pm

    I am so sorry to hear of Borden’s death. It always seemed as Borden was always present, when we were growing up in Eagle Head, and being a nuisance to Maxine and I. Then later at every event associated with family and friends, he was there to help.
    He will be so missed by many people

    Sincere condolences to all the family .I practice law here on the South Shore, and had many dealings with Borden over the years. He commanding knowledge of property law was widely respected in the legal profession. He was always a pleasure to deal with and a had a sharp wit . May he rest in peace.

    Vicki and I extend our condolences to Borden’s family. My fondest memory of Borden: When he first joined me in the practice of law we attended a dance at LaHave RiverYacht Club. I was amazed when this serious and competent young barrister stepped onto the dance floor where the joy, exuberance and vitality of his dancing made a major contribution to the enjoyment of everyone in attendance. I greatly appreciated his professionalism while we worked together as law partners but, upon remembering him, my thoughts turn to the moment that revealed this other Borden.

    Dear Nathaniel,
    We’re so very sorry that you’ve lost your Dad. Bob always found him to be a pleasure to be around and very down to earth. We know from the many comments that he will be dearly missed in his community and church. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family as you grieve his loss.

    Our deepest condolences to you, Christine, and to Hayes and to Nathaniel. My Dad, Milton Rayner, always loved to hear Borden’s accounts of Queen’s County history and my Mum, Rosslyn, fondly recalls lobster meals prepared in his special way. Borden was a gifted raconteur and supporter of local history and the arts. We remember him fondly for his love of the land and preservation of the old ways of life.

    So very sad to hear of your sudden loss (and ours). Borden and my brother Stephen were at Kings together and I met him when I got there 2 years later.

    He has been my lawyer all these years and many wonderful hours were spent on unrelated topics and in good conversations about our families and many common interests
    ( especially the Anglican Church).

    He had a wonderful laugh and sense of the ridiculous and always was authentically interested and thoughtful with his good advice.

    He will be missed tremendously.

    Christine, Hayes and Nathaniel, The words are hard to find to say how sad I am to know that Borden has passed!! I am sure that it is such a shock to everyone who knew and loved him. He was so kind and helpful whenever one needed his wise counsel, his wide knowledge of our history and geneaology, and his faithfulness and hard work in church matters. He will be truly missed by all of us. My heartfelt condolences go out to you, his family.

    I am sorry for your loss. When I first started practicing in Liverpool, Borden was extremely generous to me with his time and answered many questions that I had. I truly appreciated his willingness to share his expertise. My best wishes for your family.

    Christine, Nathanial and Hayes. So sorry to hear of Borden’s passing.

    Borden always had a friendly smile, from the days we knew him in High School to his long and successful career as a lawyer. We did not see him often but when we did we always had that wonderful kind of conversation you have when you meet an old friend you have not seen for awhile.

    You are in our thoughts and prayers.

    My husband, Roy and I visited with you when you visited with “Grannie” Troyer. Borden was my champion in high school as I was so homesick and Borden would say kind words to anyone who was being stressed.
    We have not seen you for years and so I was shocked when I heard the news. The last time I saw Borden was when he was serving at the supper in Brooklyn. always kind Shirley and Roy Dagley, Voglers Cove

    Just found out about Borden’s passing. Being in the US, we are out of touch.
    Borden was our lawyer and friend. We had good legal services and many interesting conversations. It was especially nice that he came to our very small wedding at our cottage.
    We will miss him.

    My sincere condolences to Christine, Nathaniel, and Hayes. It was a pleasure working for Borden. I often think back on my time with Conrad and Feindel with fondness. It was an honour to work for, and learn from, such a well respected and funny person.

    Hello Christine,
    I am so sorry to hear about Borden’s death, late though my condolences are. We had such fun at your house, noisy, argumentative lobster dinners, always a pot of soup on the stove, a warm welcome and a comfy overnight stay. You will have been a widow for over a year now: I hope it isn’t as strange for you. Simon and I have been in Victoria for many years: we just celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary. We have 3 children, Henry, Alexandra and Emily, and a 10-month old grandson, Beau. They all live close by, so we are fortunate to see them often. I hope you are well.
