- OBITUARIES: Daily Telegraph, April 10, 1922, microfilm # 132 Sudden Death of B.L. Amdur Leader Among Hebrews of This City, Successful Business Man and Former Rabbi Has Passed Away After Short Illness. B.L. Amdur died suddenly at the St. John Infirmary yesterday morning at 8 o’clock after having been ill for three days with pneumonia. Besides his wife, he is survived by one son and four daughters. The children are: Belle, Isadore, Mrs. I. Sydney Isaacs, Ada and Sarah. Mrs. Louis Dautch, of Buffalo, is a sister. The news of the death of Mr. Amdur is a great shock to the community, as comparatively few of his many friends knew of his illness. The late Mr. Amdur was born in Dvinsk, Russia, fifty years ago and was educated in the Riga schools. Twenty-two years ago, he came to America, having accepted the call to officiate as rabbi at the Jefferson street Temple, Buffalo (N.Y.). There he ministered for fifteen years and afterwards was Rabbi at the Bnai Jacob synagogue of Hamilton (Ont.). He then came to this city and was rabbi at the Hazen avenue Synagogue until 1912 when he retired from the ministry and entered business life. He was a talented musician of exceptional ability and conducted a music store in Union street until 1916 with considerable success. Mr. Amdur also was active in real estate ventures and carried on extensive developments at Eastmount, having erected several houses there. In 1916, he initiated a business which, in a comparatively few years, he developed with remarkable success in that from the time of his opening of his first dry goods store in West St. John, he expanded his new business so rapidly that the expansion took place at the rate of one new store opened every year until finally he was operating two stores in West St. John, and two in the city, all located at strategic points in the commercial centre, and all prospering. Lately he adopted the business policy of consolidation and concentration and leaves as a great example of business achievement two large stores in the heart of the city. Probably, in recent years, Mr. Amdur's business success has not been excelled by any other institution in this city. In private life, the late Mr. Amdur's noble character, intimate knowledge of politics, art and music and his genial, kindly manner was an inspiration to his family and won for him in the outside world a wide circle of friends, not only in St. John, but also in other parts of Canada and the eastern parts of the United States. He was held in high regard by the Canadian Jews, being recognized as one of the outstanding leaders and frequently represented this section in national Jewish conferences. Locally he was idolized by his co-religionists and at the time of his death was president of the Jewish congregation of St. John. He was a member of Carleton Union; F& A.M., and also member of the L.O.O.F. The funeral will take place from his late residence, 85 Elliott Row, at 3 o'clock this afternoon to the Carleton street synagogue, where services will be conducted by Rabbi Weiner. The funeral will be attended by delegations from the Masonic and Odd Fellows fraternities. Funerals The funeral of B.L. Amdur was held yesterday from his late residence, 85 Elliott row, to the Carleton street Synagogue, where service was conducted by Rabbi Weiner. Interment was in Fernhill cemetery. The funeral was attended by members of the Masonic and Odd Fellows' fraternities, and many friends who deeply mourn the death of a worthy citizen. Gravestone reference code(s): JM 998.61.390.

- OBITUARIES: Telegraph Journal, December 24, 2001 Abraham 'Abe' M. Calp, husband of the late Fena (Belenkaya) Calp, of Saint John New Brunswick, died December 22, 2001 at the Saint John Regional Hospital. The 96 year-old entrepreneur and philanthropist was born in Odessa, Russia, on August 1, 1905, the eldest son of Marcus and Sarah Calp. Abe arrived in Saint John on December 2, 1926, two years almost to the day, after fleeing Odessa with his mother, sister, brother, and his childhood sweetheart and wife, Fena Belenkaya, following the death of his father. In 1933, Abe Calp established Calps Ltd., a major department store, which for more than 60 years, served Saint John from its Charlotte Street location. Abe became a citizen of the British Empire in 1931 and, like every other Canadian, he became a Canadian citizen in 1947. Mr. Calp was instrumental in organizing the 'Fena Belenkaya Calp Volunteer of the Year' memorial fund, and was one of the cornerstones of the Boys & Girls Club movement. Abe had joined the Saint John Rotary Club in 1942, and served as the deputy chairman of the Rotary Admiral Beatty Building Fund. Mr. Calp had been honored by the Rotary Club in many ways, as he was made a 'Paul Harris Fellow of the Rotary International Foundation', and was awarded the Canada 125 medal. Abe was a chartered member and past president of the New Brunswick Division of the Canadian Arthritis Society and in 1973, was honoured by Goveneur General Roland Michener with a life membership to the Canadian Arthritis and Rheumatism Society. He became a director of the Saint John Boys & Girls Club, was founding chairman of the Saint John Boys & Girls Club Endowment Fund, and, in 1974, he was the campaign chairman of the Boys & Girls Club Rebuilding Fund, raising more than $1 million to repair its fire-damaged building. In his lifetime, he was honoured as both a Life Member and a Master Builder of the Saint John Boys & Girls Club, and was a member of the Board of the National Boys & Girls Club of Canada. In 1957, he was appointed to the first Urban Renewal Commission in Canada, and was an organizer and later chairman of Fundy Linen Services Inc.. Mr. Calp had served on three local hospital boards, and was the chairman of the Saint John Centracare Endowment Fund (later, Mindcare, New Brunswick). He was a counsellor of the Saint John Board of Trade, a director of the Saint John Community Concert Association, the Music Festival, and the Symphony Orchestra. He served for 25 years as a member of the Atlantic Exhibition Association. Mr. Calp became president of the Saint John Merchants Association and the Associated Stores of Canada. He was a charter member of the Retail Council of Canada, serving as vice-president and director for 22 years. In 1985, his peers in the retail industry honoured him with the Distinguished Canadian Retailer Award. He was a member and past-president of the Shaarei Zedek Congregation and served as a general chairman of the Maritime Region of the Jewish National Fund. He was vice-president of the Zionist Organization of Canada, president of the Saint John Ezra Lodge, Zionist Order of Habonim and chairman of the United Jewish Appeal and State of Israel Bond Campaign. Throughout his lifetime, Mr. Calp was also a member of the Union Club, Probus Club, Masonic Lodge #2, Carleton Lodge, the CNIB Advisory Board, and the Westfield and Riverside Gold and Country Clubs. Abe was the last surviving member of his immediate family. He is survived by his three daughters, Marie Bornstein of Toronto, Lucille Kerr of Halifax, and Francine Goldsmith of Saint John, his seven grandchildren, and ten great-grandchildren. He was predeceased by his parents, his wife, Fena in 1989, his brother, Jack, and his sister, Celia. The funeral service will be held on Monday, December 24, 2001 at 2 p.m. from Brenan's Select Community Funeral Home Chapel, 111 Paradise Row, Saint John, NB, (634-7424).
