A Legacy of Service
Dedicated Family Man, Farmer, Public Servant, Nova Scotia's 21st Premier and Inspiration to Patricia
The Honourable Roger S. Bacon was a pioneering blueberry and dairy farmer, family man, and dedicated public servant to Nova Scotia from 1970 to 1993.
Roger never forgot his roots and kept the communities he served at the heart of his decisions. Roger and Patricia shared a love of debate, politics and people. They were also known to have heated discussions beside the fireplace on the farm where Patricia learned incredible lessons that guide her today.
Patricia speaks fondly of her formative moments with her Grandfather and holds close the importance and POWER of learning how to listen then take action to help your community. Roger is no doubt partly responsible for Patricia's inspiration to serve the people who call Central Nova home.
The Honourable Roger Bacon held many positions over his time in government including, Municipal County Councillor and Deputy Warden, Provincial Minister responsible for EMO Act and Regulations, Minister of Tourism, Minister of the Environment, Minister of Agriculture, Minister of Housing, Deputy Premier, and finally ending his service in the top job as Premier while the party chose a new leader.
The Bacon family is very proud of Roger's many accomplishments especially given he left school at a young age to take care of the family farm for his Father. Roger's humble beginnings, work ethic and community work serve as an inspiration to all for what is possible if you put your head down and get to work.

Growing up on the farm gave Patricia a unique perspective on team work and what good stewardship of land looks like. Patricia acknowledges that lessons learned on the farm are often more valuable than lessons learned in a classroom! Patricia and her father are shown here feeding the beef on the family farm. They are both in their happy place here!
When Patricia is not mothering, wifing, teaching, speaking, counselling, training, socializing, volunteering/ working on a project or running her business, you may find her chasing waves on a local surf break with her children. Play together, stay together has been her motto for raising her children with Henry.
