Joseph "Juggie" Balfour

Jug, so many memories! Big brother to all of us, tormentor, friend, guardian and so much more. We were allowed to stay out late because you were with us. Teaching me to dance at the Cartier, learning to drive, packing us all into the Beetle and heading for the beach, late night pizza and eggrolls; locking myself in the bathroom because I had just dumped water on you from the upstairs window. You were such a kind and generous man all the years I've know you. You will be missed but never never forgotten.

Juggie,

You were my Uncle, my Confidant, my Mentor and most importantly you were my Friend.

If I can become half the Man that you once were I will be very Proud person.

You were a giver, a saviour, and Loved by Everyone you met.

You never judged people ..... you took them as they were and never expected nor wanted them to change.

You touched so Many people with your loving heart, your kindness and your humour.

I will always remember you ,

Jug, you were the older brother to all of us in our family. Thanks for the memories, from learning to drive in your Beetle, country & western at the Cartier,
cribbage, Mister Clean and everything in between. You will be missed.

"Don't get me wrong!" He was a darling of a man. You will be missed. Thank you for being part of our lives.

I will miss seeing you around town this summer.I always enjoyed your stories and your wonderful sense of humour.Rest in peace sweet man and give your sister Joan a hug and kiss for us. Leclair Family (point La Nim )

So sorry to hear about Juggie. Our most sincere sympathy to the Balfour family and to his extended Oakes family. Our thoughts are with you all at this sad time. His smile and quick wit will be missed by many. It was a pleasure to have known him.

By far the kindest, most generous person I ever had the privilege of knowing. I like to think your good nature and love of practicle jokes rubbed off on me and had some influence on the man I became. I will always cherish the time you spent with our family and was glad to see you one last time in Sept-Îles in Feb. of 2012.
Rest well old friend, I think you have earned it. You will be sadly missed but will forever live on in our fondest memories of you. XOX Mosie
