HENSHAW, Darrell Bruce Llewellyn "Buddy" - 78, Waldec, passed away peacefully after a lengthy illness on Thursday, May 31, 2007, in Valley Regional Hospital, Kentville.  Born on October 15, 1928, in Digby County, he was a son of the late Llewellyn and Gertrude (Vantassel) Henshaw.  Buddy was a kind man with a generous heart who lived one day at a time, and who wanted very little from life.  He was employed with the Department of Highways for a number of years, and was known to be an excellent welder.  As a young man, Buddy enjoyed stock car racing, and he also enjoyed hunting and fishing.  He led a very interesting and colorful life and will be sadly missed by those who knew and loved him.  Besides his parents, he was predeceased by his common-law wife, Carol Hewey; sister, Phyllis Harvey.  Buddy is survived by daughters, Julia MacAlpine, Fredericton, N.B.; Cassandra Cropley (Russell), Torbrook; son, Gregory Henshaw (Melody), Bear River East; stepchildren, Anita Morgan-Wentzell (Peter), Wilmot; Susan Gillis, Halifax; Terry Morgan (Elisa), Waldec; and Larry Morgan (Christine), Bear River East.  Also surviving are sister, Regina Ruggles (Walter), Bear River; brothers, Glendon Henshaw (Erna), Deep Brook; and Calvin Henshaw (Eileen), Upper Clements, 12 grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.  At Buddy's request there will be no visitation or funeral service.  His life will be celebrated and his ashes spread in Victory at a small gathering of family and friends at a later date.  Donations in Buddy's name may be made to The Lung Association or a charity of one's choice.  Arrangements are under the care and direction of Serenity Funeral Home & Crematorium, P.O. Box 239, Port Williams, NS B0P 1T0.  Donations or cards of sympathy may be sent to this address or on-line at:
