He then went to McGill to do a residency in Radiology and in 1970 started work as a Pediatric Radiologist at the Janeway Child Health Centre, where he stayed until his retirement at the age of 72. Spencer was passionate about his work and loved his colleagues. He also enjoyed teaching and spent much of his career with a student sitting next to him. He was honoured when they named a radiology teaching award after him. Two of the people Spencer treasured most were his grandsons Spencer and Jack, whom he adored. He was so proud of their achievements and loved sharing memories with them and hearing about their activities. Spencer was a history buff and avid reader. He enjoyed studying world religions and philosophy and fancied himself to be an amateur philosopher. One of his favourite pastimes was spending time with his friends, including Margaret and Peter Crosbie, the Hopkins family, his coffee buddies, and his new friends at Kenny's Pond, where he loved to sing, dance, play trivia, and socialize. Spencer was extraordinary in so many ways. An exceptional role model, he showed us how to be resilient and enjoy each day no matter what life brings you. We'll miss him dearly.

BURTON, Ethel Marie (Parsons)
Passed on: January 24th, 2019

St. John's and Seal Cove native Ethel Marie (Parsons) Burton, 99, passed away peacefully after a short illness on January 24, 2019 in Laconia, New Hampshire, USA where she and Harold Burton, her husband of 79 years, had moved in 2014. Ethel was raised in Seal Cove, Conception Bay, the daughter of Richard Parsons and Jenny (Harvey) and was one of five children (Barbara, Richard, Betty and Andrew). Her sister, Barbara (Parsons) Peet, of Holiday, Florida, survives her. Born in St. John's on July 20, 1919, Ethel married Hal in Bishops Falls on August 20, 1939, less than two weeks before the start of WWII on September 1, 1939. The young couple welcomed their first son, Peter, in May 1942 in St. John's while Hal worked as a welder and hospital orderly at various military installations. They moved to Toronto in 1945 where second son Gary was born. Hal and Ethel would later live in St. Albans (on New York's Long Island), Brooklyn and Springfield, Mass., before welcoming third son Richard. Ethel and Hal's home in Grantham, New Hampshire was a place of great joy and together they frequently hosted their three sons, their wives (Patti, Chris and Barbara), seven grandchildren, three great-grandchildren and numerous Newfoundland family members who were visiting the States. Ethel and Hal brought their family back to Newfoundland frequently including in 1961 when son Peter and Hal drove the family from Port Aux Basques (through horrendous forest fires) to reach St. John's. Ethel and Hal travelled widely (including trips to England, Germany, Nicaragua and Australia) and to see Ethel's sisters in Florida and Upper Gullies and her brothers in Seal Cove and Brooklyn. Ethel was a proud Newfoundlander and saw to it that the family frequently displayed the Newfoundland flag at her home. Ethel climbed the Sydney Harbour Bridge in Sydney, Australia with one of her grandsons while in her 80's. Always up for a challenge, this energetic woman eagerly embraced all that life offered her. Donations can be made to the Newfoundland (St. John's) Salvation Army in Ethel's name or to a charity of the donor's choice.

Predeceased by his father-in-law Subhash Bhasin, whom Jonathan adored. Jonathan leaves behind heartbroken cousins Susan and Kellie and many friends he loved including Stephen Lewis and David Gravender. Also countless other kind and caring friends and other family members will miss and fondly remember Jonathan. Jonathan had the kindest heart and the brightest mind. He was a professor, a writer, a poet, and not a bad golfer. He had the most amazing sense of humour and opened his arms to everyone. Jonathan received a joint honours BA in English and Philosophy from Memorial University and completed his PhD in 2001 at the University of Toronto. He adored teaching American Literature, for which he had such a passion, to students in Canada, Taiwan, and the U.A.E. Along with many academic publications he also published novels, short fiction, poetry, and essays in both Canada and Taiwan. Jonathan was a remarkable individual with a beautiful and exuberant spirit. He was a kind, caring, and loving husband, son, and brother. Jonathan was a true and loyal friend to the many souls who had the honour of sharing his journey with him. The family wishes to express love and sympathy to the many people who are left heartbroken by his departure. We must all strive to keep the world brighter to compensate for the loss of his light and to honour his memory.
THIS SPORTING LIFE
for Jonathan Butler
The ball knocked high with consummate skill,
Dead straight for the flag, risen to the pitch,
Of perfection, beyond grasp, out of reach,
A moonshot of the cleat-clogged will,
Winks and will not ever settle down.
In the shadow beneath,
A clapboard city cuffed by the brute Atlantic,
And a young man exercised by fate,
Testing the air with fledged wings,
To follow where his thought has flown.
-David Gravender

Donations in his memory may be made to the library of one's choice in recognition of Jonathan's love of literature. Visitation to be held at Carnell's Funeral Home, Freshwater Road on Monday, January 21st from 2-4 pm and 7-9 pm.

CONWAY, Margaret Mary (nee Coady)
Born: June 21st, 1934
Passed on: January 29th, 2019
CONWAY (nee COADY) Margaret Mary
age 84, formerly of St. John's and Outer Cove, Newfoundland and most recently of Winnipeg, Manitoba passed peacefully with her children by her side on January 29, 2019 after a lengthy battle with Alzheimer's Disease. Born on June 21, 1934, Margaret is predeceased by her parents Bridget and James Coady; her brothers Dick, Pat, John and Ed and her infant son Wayne. Margaret, or Mag or Margie as she was known by her family, was born and raised in the family salt box home in Outer Cove, Newfoundland, just a stone's throw away from the Atlantic Ocean. Margaret was very close to her mother, Nanan as she was fondly called. When she was young, Mag would help Nanan make meals for the men when they came home from work and was known to sneak a cigarette with her brothers when her mother wasn't looking. That mischievous nature followed her throughout her life. She loved a good laugh, a good visit and would lead a singalong for any occasion, from "Put Your Shoes on Lucy" to "Delta Dawn". She loved to make people laugh and smile. Once Mag completed school, she went on to work as a secretary at the U.S. Military Base in St. John's. In later years, she worked as a clerk in the Hostel Unit at the old General Hospital on Quidi Vidi Road in St. John's. Mag loved her work and her colleagues and shared many wonderful memories of her time at both of those jobs. Mag loved her kids dearly and went to the ends of the earth to make sure they were safe and well fed, going to school in clothes pressed and creased to military precision. Rick, Ed and Deb wouldn't dare be late for church, music lessons or sporting events under Mag's close eye. Later, when her children were grown, she moved to Manitoba to help her son Rick and his wife Cindy with their kids while they both worked shiftwork with the RCMP in The Pas, Brandon and finally Winnipeg. As all of her children had settled in Western Canada, she felt fortunate to be able to spend lots of time with her kids and grandkids. She travelled to Fort McMurray, Edmonton and Palm Springs, California to enjoy time with her daughter Deb and her family. She would often spend a few weeks each summer out in Brandon visiting with her son Ed and his family, enjoying the solitude of the back yard on a hot summer day. Mag loved her brothers and kept in close contact with all of them through the years. Friday evening telephone calls from Winnipeg to Outer Cove to visit with her brother Pat were never missed. It didn't matter what they said, she just enjoyed hearing his voice, about his week and news from back home. Her trips back to Newfoundland were filled with dinners with the Coady clan and lots of time around the kitchen table drinking tea and reminiscing with her brothers Jim and Pat. Mag's last years were spent living at Maples Personal Care Home where she received wonderful care. The family is grateful for all of the professionals who made Mag their friend while treating her as their patient. Mag is lovingly remembered and deeply missed by her son Rick (Norma), Cindy and their children Kim (Rod) and Jason (Carli); her son Ed (Janet) and their daughter Kelsey (Craig); and her daughter Deb (Rick) and their children Jennifer (Nick) and Greg, as well as Mag's great grandchildren Lachlan, Lilly, Carson, Brooklyn and Jackson. Mag is also survived by her brother Jim (Pat) Coady and many Coady nieces and nephews. A Graveside Service will take place at 1 p.m. on Wednesday, February 6, 2019 at St. Francis of Assisi Cemetery, Outer Cove, Newfoundland. Caul's Funeral Home in care of arrangements. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to The Alzheimer Society.
May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sunshine warm your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the
palm of His hand.
- Irish Proverb

LAGO, Catherine
Born In: Trepassey, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada
Born: July 28th, 1929
Passed in: South Berwick, Maine, United States
Passed on: January 3rd, 2019

With great sorrow we announce the passing of our much-loved and loving Mother, Catherine Lago, 89, of South Berwick, Maine. Mom passed away peacefully early in the morning, Wednesday, January 16, 2019, at her home surrounded by family.
She was born July 28, 1929 in Trepassey Newfoundland, Canada, the second daughter of William and Gertrude (Myrick) James. She married Henry (Bill) Lago, whose military career meant they would frequently uproot our ever-expanding family and move to a new city - or country. Whether in Texas, Georgia, Spain or Maine, Mom always made the new place a home for all of us. She was one of the most genuinely caring people to ever grace the world; every child should be so fortunate as to have such a Mom.
After Dad retired and we kids moved out, Mom had more time for other things she loved, like gardening; growing roses and colorful flowers, as well as landscaping with anything she could coax to root - which she shared through splicing. She admired the beauty of the Maine seacoast and enjoyed particularly strolling along Ogunquit's Marginal Way; but she still traveled -- through books, as an avid reader. In keeping with her Irish heritage, among her favorite activities was going out to tea with the ladies or attending tea parties hosted by one of her many grandchildren or great-grandchildren. And to go with the tea, all of us loved it when Mom baked, especially her oft-requested lemon meringue or apple pies.
We are grateful to have had her in our lives for so long; and grateful that she was aware and engaged to the end. She died as she lived, thinking of those she loved.
She was predeceased by her husband, Henry W. Lago, her daughter, Glena Marie Sparks, her granddaughter, Lily Ann Lago and her brothers, George James and Gus James.
Surviving family include 7 of her 8 children: Don Lago (Paula) of Austin, Texas; Bill & Tracey Lago of North Berwick, Maine; Ed Lago, of North Berwick, Maine; Lenor Gaunya (Doug) of Barrington, N.H.; Cathy & Paul Bundy of Midway, Georgia; Tom & Donna Lago of Louisville, Kentucky; Bob & Della Lago of Dahlonega, Georgia; 13 grandchildren; 14 great grandchildren; two sisters, Philomena Sutton and Colette Phelan; one brother, Edward James; and numerous nieces and nephews.
A time of visiting will be Monday April 15, 2019 from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. followed by the funeral service at 11:30 a.m. at the McIntire-McCooey Funeral Home, 301 Main St., South Berwick, Maine. Burial of her ashes in the family lot in St. Michael's Cemetery, Rollinsford, will follow the funeral. Please go to www.mcintiremccooey.com to sign the on-line guest book.

MCMILLAN, Arvo Arnold
Passed on: January 20th, 2019
1939 - 2019

We said goodbye to Arvo on Sunday, January 20th. The son of Colin Brock McMillan and Nellie Lehtonen, Arvo was born in Arvida, Quebec. He leaves behind his wife Margie (Muggah) and sons Colin (Marie Eve Gregoire) and Paul who he viewed with wonder and deep love. Also brother-in-law Henry Muggah and his wife Betty (Crookshank) and sister-in-law Barb McMillan. He was predeceased by his brother Bruce. We would particularly like to mention nieces and nephews, Sean, Liz, Rob and Alex Muggah as well as Kim Gauthier, Rochelle, Deidre, Chris and Paula McMillan for their love and support over the past months. Arvo delighted in his Finnish heritage and strong Maritime Loyalist roots. As an urban planner he worked in Saskatchewan and Nova Scotia as well as St. John's and Corner Brook. He dearly loved the time spent working throughout all corners of the province up until two years ago. This fed his enthusiasm for his adopted home and he never missed an opportunity to take along his kayak and bicycle to better explore some of the most beautiful parts of the world while on the job. "This is so much fun, I'd do it for nothing" - one of his favorite expressions. He was quietly passionate about poetry, words, wetlands, his fiddles and buttered popcorn, fine scotch and above all the absurd. Many thanks to all those in the health care system, nurses and doctors who saw to Arvo's challenges. Above all we will so miss his deeply inquisitive, questioning and roaming mind. Reception to be held on Thursday, January 24 from 3-6pm at the Fluvarium, St. John's, Newfoundland. Please call Amanda at Barrett's, 579-6007 for details.

She was a person who loved to read, she probably had every issue of "Life Magazine". Her interests ranged from music, to fashion and to politics. She loved to engage her family and friends with her views on a wide range of subject matters. She was not reticent in offering her opinion and surely was not a "flower born to blush unseen". Her family was also very important to her. She was devoted to her parents, she lived with and cared for them throughout their lives. Her brothers, sister, nieces and nephews, and their families were always her concern, and she continued to keep abreast of and be interested in what those in her family were doing in their lives. Aunt Dot was a kind, generous, loving and caring person who made her mark in her day and generation. She truly enjoyed her life and will be fondly remembered by her family and friends. The family would like to express it's sincere gratitude to the management and staff of Luxury Estates, Carbonear, for their care and attention to Dorothy for the past ten years. She is resting at Noels Funeral Home, Carbonear, with visitation from 2-4 and 7-9 on Monday, January 14, 2019.

PARSONS, William "Bill"
Passed on: January 26th, 2019

With deep sorrow we share the news of William 'Bill' Parsons passing on 26 January 2019 at the Carbonear General Hospital following a brief bout with pancreatic cancer. Predeceased by his parents Selby (Salmon Cove) and Marjorie (Flat Rock) Parsons. He leaves to mourn his loving life partner, wife Ruby Parsons, Victoria. Also left to mourn, daughter Katherine (Douglas) Robertson, Moncton, NB; two sons Keith (Carol Anne) Parsons, Conception Bay South and Kevin (Diane) Parsons, Kitchener, ON; stepson Neil (Crystal) Piercey, Makinsons, and stepdaughter Rayna (Jamie) Gillis, Acton, ON; ten grandchildren Kyle (Lenora), Kenneth, Katrina (Ryan), Tyler (Randi), Devon (Katrina), Michael, Jared, Cameron, Christopher, and Wil; five great-grandchildren Selby, Raymond, Hailey, Jace, and Laura; sister Leah (John) Crane, Upper Island Cove; brothers Jim (Myrtle, deceased) Parsons, Salmon Cove, Willis (Janet) Parsons, Victoria, Les (Pauline), Labrador City, and Russell Parsons (Maureen), Carbonear.
Bill left his home in Flat Rock at the age of 16 to teach but soon realized that the classroom was not for him so he moved onto the iron ore mine in what is now Labrador City. Having not yet reached the mandatory age to work in the mine, he worked in the kitchen until his 18th birthday. He signed his first union card with Local 5795 of the United Steelworks Union of America in July of 1959. He would later serve as the International Representative for 19 years; a position that afforded him the opportunity to visit numerous small towns across Atlantic Canada. In 1984, he joined the Fish, Food and Allied workers Union as its Organizing Director until 1986 when he moved onto the Communications Workers of Canada as a Vice-President until 1992. A couple of years of contract-based work ensued until 1995 when Bill joined the Newfoundland and Labrador Building and Construction Trades Council as Executive Director. In 2003 he accepted the Executive Director position of the Newfoundland and Labrador International Building Trades Petroleum Development Association until his retirement in 2005. Bill served as an Umpire for the Building Trades Council until 2015.
An ardent and vocal proponent for the labour movement, Bill began his strong advocacy role in 1980 as the President of the Newfoundland and Labrador Federation of Labour. For 10 years, he spearheaded efforts to improve occupational health and safety, as well as, workers compensation, especially in the construction and offshore sectors. His work in health and safety intensified in the dark days following the Ocean Ranger sinking; what remains to this day as one of the worst offshore disasters in Newfoundland and Labrador's history. Bill was particularly proud of his advocacy for women's rights and gender equality. He supported the Federation's Women's Committee and initiated changes to the constitution so that there would be female representation on the Executive Council. Bill formally retired in 2005 but his commitment to occupational health and safety continued. He served as a labour representative with the Labour Relations Board until 2018 and his strong sense of duty motivated him to testify, offering his knowledge of safety and providing recommendations, at the Wells Inquiry into the 2009 Cougar helicopter crash. During his retirement years, Bill enjoyed his woodworking, moose hunting, and his pride possession, Bella, his mare.
Volunteerism was very important to Bill which he did in a number of ways including: the Board of the Waterford Hospital and the Carbonear General Hospital; the Board of Governors for the Canadian Center for Occupational Health and Safety; a member of the Advisory Council on the Economy; Labour's Representative on the Barry Inquiry; a member of the Canadian Society of Safety Engineers; the Labour Relations Initiative Working Group; and the Construction IAS Committee. In 1999 his volunteerism was recognized when "The Most Venerable Order of The Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem (The Order of St. John)" was bestowed to him by the Governor General of Canada, an acknowledgement that he was particularly proud of.
Bill was grateful for the kind words from, and laughter with, the many visitors, messages and calls during his final few weeks. The family is celebrating his life with visitation at Noel's Funeral Home, Water Street, Carbonear on Tuesday, 2-5 p.m. and 7-9 p.m. and Wednesday, 10:30-11:30 a.m. Funeral service on Wednesday, January 30 at 2 p.m. from Riverside United Church, Salmon Cove.

All donations will be gratefully accepted. Please visit noelsfuneralhome.com to sign the memorial guest book.

A recipient of the NL Folk Arts Council's Lifetime Achievement Award as well as the East Coast Music Association's Stompin' Tom Connors Award, Ray was always humble about his talents and musical accomplishments.

, aged 75 years, passed away peacefully at the Palliative Care unit at Dr. G.B. Cross Memorial hospital on Friday, January 4, 2019. Predeceased by his parents, Frank and Irene. Left with fond and loving memories are his wife, Hilda, of 50 years; son Alberto (Kim), son Ken, grandsons Ryan, Brent and Cole, sister-in-law Gwen (Wes), nephew Corey, and a large circle of family and friends. Per Bruce's wishes, there will be no funeral service, private burial for immediate family to follow. Bruce Wareham, well-known and well-respected pioneer in Canada's seafood industry, passed away after a brief battle with cancer. While his career brought him to many countries around the world, his greatest commitment remained to the town, plant and people of Arnold's Cove. Bruce often modestly attributed the success he experienced in life to the people of Arnold's Cove. This commitment was the driving force behind Bruce's decision in 2004, at the age of 61, to form the Icewater Group of Companies. Bruce's hard work, determination and vision not only kept a groundfish processing plant open in Arnold's Cove, but built it into a successful operation with a worldwide reputation for quality. Bruce remained passionate and optimistic about the future of the fishing industry in Newfoundland and Labrador until his passing and will be remembered as a man of his word and a true gentleman. The family would like to thank Dr. Sarah Small, the nurses of the Palliative Care unit and a special Thank You to Dr. Peter Noel. As an expression of sympathy, donations in Bruce's memory may be made to the Clarenville SPCA or the Dr. G.B. Cross Memorial Hospital.
Bruce was a simple man with a big heart.

WHITE, John James
Passed on: January 10th, 2019

It is with profound sadness that the family of John James White mourn his passing on January 10, 2019 at 72 years of age. Predeceased by his mother and father, Sara and David White, grandmother Catherine Moss and uncle Jack Moss. He will be lovingly remembered by his dear friend and wife of 46 years, Sylvia (Fost) and their cherished children Chris (Tanya) and Allison (Miles), and many dear friends and family. He was a dedicated public servant in the Healthcare system for over 40 years; in Bonavista, he oversaw the expansion of Golden Heights manor among many other milestones. After retiring in 2003, he sat on the board of the College of Physicians and Surgeons for several years. He was passionate and cared deeply about his work and colleagues, making many dear friends along the way. Saying John loved his family was an understatement, putting them above all else. What he loved most was to spend time with his wife and children, on fishing trips and vacations, or a simple family barbecue. John was so incredibly generous, and had a foolish and wonderful sense of humour, often cracking jokes, always with a spark in his eye. In retirement, he loved to take photos and likened himself a budding photographer. His wisdom, courage and love will be forever missed, always cherished and never forgotten. Cremation has taken place; no service at John's request. But please come and share loving memories at Moore's Funeral Home, Clarke's Beach on Sunday, January 13th, 1-3 pm or 4-6 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Children's Wish Foundation or the SPCA.
