Obituary of Arthur Rudsdale Ferrier
Ferrier, Arthur R.
Arthur passed away peacefully in Perth on Thursday, March 24th, 2016 with his loving wife of 50 years, Joan (Schumann) by his side. He was the beloved father of Judy (Dan) Ferrier and Randy Ferrier and very loving and proud grandfather "Dads” of Matthew Ferrier McCaffrey. Arthur was the dear brother of Dorothea (late Jack) Tysick and Helen (Leonard) Stead. He was predeceased by his parents Mervyn and Lousie (Rudsdale) Ferrier and sister Jean Ferrier and brother Keith (Margaret) Ferrier. He will be fondly remembered by many nieces, nephews, friends and staff at Perth Community Care Centre. Arthur will be long remembered for his sense of humour, quiet nature and his lifelong passion for horses. He was a farmer all of his life, farming his third generation farm on the Scotch Line into his eighties. Arthur was a proud member of the Belgian Association. We will miss him terribly, but knowing he’s now in peace in Heaven most likely riding a horse, eases our pain. Friends may pay their respects at the Blair & Son Funeral Home, 15 Gore St., West, Perth on Monday, March 28th, 2016 from 2:00 to 5:00 and 6:00 to 8:00 P.M.

In remembrance of Arthur, in lieu of flowers, contributions to the Perth Fair Board would be appreciated.
