AGRIESTI (nee Barnable), Dorothy Gertrude - March 5, 1930-March 28,
2012.
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of a very special Wife,
Mother and Grandmother, Dorothy Agriesti (nee Barnable), age 82 years at
the Hoyles/Escasoni Complex. Predeceased by her parents, James and Gertrude
Barnable, her sisters Philomena (Tommy Grant), Sister Dorothea Barnable,
Sarah (Ron Roche) and Mary (Richard McGrath), her brothers Matt (Margaret),
Henry (Elizabeth), Joe (Jean), Herb (Teresa) and Jack. Left to mourn and
cherish her life are her loving husband Bernard Agriesti of Ferryland; her
sons: Mark (Sherry) and Blaine; her loving daughter Luanne (Kevin Cleary)
who was always there for her; her grandchildren: Clinton and John Agriesti
(and their mother, Carolyn Hawkins), Olivia and Genna Cleary and Jeffrey
and Renee Agriesti; her brother Stan Barnable (Frances); her sister-in-law
Margaret Barnable (Jack) and a large circle of nieces, nephews and their
families, and many friends.
The youngest of eleven children, at the age of
eleven she was diagnosed with tuberculosis. She spent most of the next 15
years in the Sanitorium in St. John's fighting this disease. Despite
having been anointed on several occasions and being given a slim chance of
surviving, her willpower and determination won the battle. She was told by
her doctors that her chances of successfully bearing children were also slim
and she went on to give birth to three babies - 8, 11 and 12 pounds.
She was a very talented artist and loved to draw, paint, read, write poetry
and songs, and play the piano. She had a passion for learning and preserving
the history and genealogy of Ferryland and the Southern Shore and became
a valuable resource to anyone doing research on the area. She immersed herself
in the things she loved and she went out of her way to help people in whatever
way she could. She was a very dignified, deep and caring person, a woman
of many talents and she touched the lives of so many people.
A special thank
you goes out to the staff of the 3rd Floor West, Escasoni Complex for the
wonderful care given to our mother over the past six months. In lieu of flowers,
donations may be made to Holy Trinity Church (Ferryland) Restoration Foundation

Miss Me but Let Me Go
When I come to the end of the road
and the sun has set for me,
I want no rites or rituals in a gloom filled room.
Why cry for a soul set free, miss me a
little but not too long and not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love we once shared
Miss me but let me go.
For this is a journey we all must take and each must go alone.
It's all a part of the master plan
a step on the road to home.

sons, Eric and Daniel; Peter and Linda, and their daughter Lauren; and Allan
and Nina. His wife of 25 years, Hughenia (MacDonald), stands with their children
in mourning her husband. Pete was born August 18, 1948, in St. Joseph's,

he and his siblings loved life ‘round the bay, jumpin' clampers
and fishing off the wharf. The Picco family moved into Freshwater during resettlement.
Peter worked in and around the community, owned businesses, participated in
many programs for children, including the Cub Scouts and Karate. Peter was
a man people looked to for help and always got it. He was resourceful and imaginative.
If he couldn't find it, he'd build it. He was inventive and creative,
full of ideas and inventions. He loved music and song writing, especially the
accordion music played by his mother and Great-Uncle Peter Barron of Freshwater.
Predeceased by his brother Earl (Doreen), he will be missed by his siblings:
Greg (Joan), Jim (Mary), Bernadette (Clyde), Ken (Donna), Gordon (Barbara-Ann),
Donnie (Martin), Allan (Ursula), Doreen, Judy (Mark), and Gerard (Laurie),
as well as numerous nieces and nephews, cousins, neighbours and friends. This
hero of man, with a heart of gold and a helping hand ever extended, will be
missed greatly by the community at large. Known as "Peter from Placentia" to
many of the VOCM listening audience, Peter spoke out on many issues affecting
him personally and the lives of those around him. A viewing is tentatively
set for Sunday, April 1st at Maher's Funeral Home in Placentia. Please
contact Maher's Funeral Home for more information. In lieu of flowers,
donations can be made to the family at the Royal Bank.
"A Refuge for the poor,
a Shelter from the storm
This is our God
He will wipe away your tears

A Father to the orphan,
a Healer to the broken
This is our God
And He brings peace to our madness
and comfort in our sadness
This is our God
A Fountain for the thirsty,
a Lover for the lonely
This is our God
He brings glory to the humble and crowns for the faithful
This is our God"

FAMILY CARING FOR FAMILY
Sleep on dear mother your work is over, your willing hands will toil no more.
Kind you were, loving and true, no friends on earth we'll find like you.
ROSSITER (Dwyer), Catherine Mary - Passed peacefully away on Thursday,
March 8, 2012, in St. John's, Newfoundland. Catherine was born on Bell Island in
August, 1918 to loving compassionate parents John Dwyer and Johanna Kelly.
Raised in a large family of brothers and sisters, every year on her birthday
her father would say that the day Catherine was born was one of his most successful
days fishing; she was a sign of good fortune. Unlike many girls in those days,
Catherine completed a high school education that gave her a love of reading
as well as sharp math skills that made her a great manager - much like her
father. In 1944, Catherine married John Rossiter of Calvert, Newfoundland who
worked with the Roman Catholic Church on Bell Island. Theirs was an exceptional
union of 50 years. They shared a quiet love, raised six girls, and contributed
to the well-being of many others, especially those less fortunate. Their door
was always open - friends, family and visitors always welcome.
Catherine will live on through the lives of those who knew her as a wife, mother,
sister, aunt, and grandmother. She was a dedicated homemaker, a gracious host,
and a fine cook. Most importantly, Catherine was a compassionate, non-judgmental
woman, but not without a sharp wit and great sense of humor even during the
last few months of her life. Her presence will be missed by her daughters:
Catherine Rossiter-Flight (Harris), Isabel Oser (Jerry), Maureen, Paula, Mary-lou
Rossiter (Bill Simpkins), and Mona Rossiter (Paul Rowe); granddaughters: Amy
Flight and Allison Oser (Jared Rypkema); special nieces and nephews in Newfoundland,
Anna Kelly (Mike), Sister Maureen O'Keefe, Margaret White, and Jack Dwyer (Eileen);
sisters: Cecelia ("Dolly") Sparkes of Quebec and Doris Cobb, Lillian
O'Neil (Kevin), and Isabel Morris of Ontario; sisters-in-law: Beatrice MacPherson
of Massachusetts, Ruth Rossiter of St. John's and Jenny Dwyer of Cambridge,
Ontario; brothers-in-law: Tom Rossiter and Lar Rossiter (Alice) of St. John's;
a large circle of extended family in Newfoundland, Ontario and Quebec; long-time
family friend Arlene Power of St. John's; and her close neighbours. Catherine
was pre-deceased by her husband John, infant daughter Germaine, sisters Anne,
Mary, Maude and brothers Peter, Vince, Frank and William.
As a mother, Catherine always had a ready supply of inspirational quotes, words
of wisdom gathered from her reading. It is only fitting to conclude this tribute
with a few words of encouragement that she herself might well have shared:
"Be good to one another, celebrate your successes, remember to laugh
well and often and always remember to remain hopeful in your life."
Cremation has taken place. The family will receive visitors at Carnell's Funeral
Home, 329 Freshwater Road, St. John's from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. and 7:00
p.m to 9:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 10. Funeral service will take place at
2:00 p.m. on Monday, March 12, 2012 at the Carnell's Memorial Chapel. Flowers
are welcome. A private family interment will take place at a later date where
Catherine will be laid to rest alongside her husband on Bell Island.
RUSTED, Dr. Nigel Francis Scarth , CM, ONL - Passed peacefully away at the

Rusted (Denis Jenkins), Elaine Hyde (Bob) and Tom; three grandchildren: Andrew

Article From The Telegram on Dr. Rusted Published Monday, 19 March 2012
Prominent physician Dr. Nigel Rusted has died at age 104.
Rusted was invested as a member of the Order of Canada in January for his outstanding
contribution to the province's medical profession.
He was well known for work in reconstructive surgery for cleft lip and palate,
the only physician offering the surgery in this province for decades.
Rusted was born in Salvage, Bonavista Bay. He was a member of the inaugural
class of Memorial University in 1925.
He earned his medical degree from Dalhousie University and was the first medical
student to become health officer on the SS Kyle, travelling along the Labrador
coast during the summers of 1930-31 treating over 3,000 patients.
Rusted was also the first medical officer aboard the MV Lady Anderson during
1935-36 - when the travelling medical clinic treated patients along Newfoundland's
southwest coast.
Rusted opened a private practice clinic in St. John's in 1936 and was
appointed junior surgeon at the General Hospital.
By 1966 he was senior consultant at all four hospitals in St. John's.
Rusted performed more than 9,000 surgeries during his career and, prior to
Medicare, did more than 1,500 surgeries free of charge for people who could
not afford to pay.
He retired from surgery in 1982 at age 75 and retired from clinical practice
in 1987.
Among many accolades, Rusted was also presented with the honorary life membership
award by the Newfoundland and Labrador Medical Association.
Even as he passed a century, Rusted remained actively interested in medicine
and its history, writing and family roots.
It was not Rusted's intention as a young man to follow the medical path, he
said in a 2007 interview.
"I was more interested in engineering first when I was here at (Bishop)
Feild. I went to the Memorial College when it opened in 1925 and I said, 'Medicine,'
just like that," Rusted said.
His philosophy on treating patients was to give everyone good care, even when
they didn't have the money.
"My attitude always was patients first and the hell with anybody
else. If you're going to treat them, treat them the same as you want to be
treated yourself," Rusted said in the interview.
More on Nigel Rusted's life and career in The Telegram Tuesday.
2nd Story on Dr. Rusted Published Tuesday, 20 March 2012
Even in his 11th decade, and many years removed from clinical work, Dr. Nigel
Rusted remained well-versed on medical matters, making for a unique doctor-patient
relationship between himself and his family doctor.
"Just recently, about five months ago, I had a really unusual radiology
report on an investigation I had done on this patient," said Dr. Robert
Butler, who often discussed difficult cases in confidence with the 104-year-old
retired-physician.
"I talked over the case with him, and I would say his commentary
saved that patient's life. ... His diagnostic accuracy was absolutely amazing."
Rusted died Sunday at the Health Sciences Centre in St. John's following
a three-week stay in hospital.
He was predeceased by his wife of 63 years, Florence, who died in 2007.
A member of both the Order of Canada and the Order of Newfoundland, Rusted
was born in Salvage, Bonavista Bay, in 1907 and spent portions of his youth
in Upper Island Cove and Carbonear.
He was a member of Memorial University's inaugural class in 1925 and
later earned a medical degree from Dalhousie University. He spent time in the
1930s as a medical officer on the SS Kyle, travelling through coastal Labrador,
and on the MV Lady Anderson along Newfoundland's southwest coast.
Rusted opened a private practice clinic in 1936 and went on to perform 9,000
operations before retiring from surgery in 1982. He was also appointed clinical
professor of surgery at MUN in 1968.
He retired from his clinical practice in 1987. Rusted kept his records and
updated them if he noticed obituaries for former patients.
His family doctor for the last 10 years, Butler considers Rusted a personal
medical hero, adding it was humbling and a privilege to look after the health
of such a smart man.
Remarkable intellect
"He had an intellect that was remarkable," said Butler,
who enjoyed sharing in shop-talk with Rusted. "Even though he was out of practice
for the last 26 years, he still read a lot and maintained his activities with
the medical school."
MUN created the Dr. Nigel Rusted Lecture in Medical Humanities in his honour,
and he mentored many medical school students over the years.
"He was an avid reader," said Joan Rusted, one of his three
children. "He still read medical journals up until a few weeks ago. He just
never stopped (learning), even at his age."
Having come from the pre-antibiotic era, Butler said Rusted practiced medicine
in an age that required excellent technique and clean work from physicians.
"His work in the area of cleft palate (repairs) is very emotionally touching,
because he gets letters even today, up to this past year, from patients he
had worked on, thanking him for the major change he had made in their lives," said Butler.
According to a 2011 article from the Canadian Medical Association's Journal,
Rusted was the first doctor in Newfoundland and Labrador to perform several
operations, including cleft lip and cleft palate repair, partial gastrectomy,
pedicle graft from abdomen to neck, and adrenalectomy.
"He commanded respect, but he also earned respect," said Butler.
Dr. James Rourke, dean of MUN's medical school, had many chats with Rusted
in his home-based office.
"Dr. Rusted gave a lifetime of service to people in Newfoundland and
Labrador," he said. "At his home, he showed me the many meticulous
records he kept, and I feel very fortunate to have been able to visit him at
his home."
Newfoundland and Labrador Medical Association past-president Dr. Patrick O'Shea
said Rusted possessed a great sense of humour, and he was glad the NLMA was
able to present him with an honorary life membership prior to his death.
"Much to our chagrin, we realized he had not been so honoured," said
O'Shea. "He was a great person and very friendly with all doctors."
Joan Rusted said her father preferred to practice medicine with a personal
touch.
"He was somebody who believed in putting the patient first," she
said. "The patient was an individual, not just a case or a disease."
Rusted worked upwards of 80 to 100 hours in a given week, according to Butler.
Joan Rusted said being a doctor often kept him away from home while his children
grew up.
"He was a very hard worker, and his practice took up a lot of his time,
but when he was home, he was a family person," she said.
Senior driver
He purchased cars from four generations of the Hickman family, according to
Butler, and only stopped driving last year. However, Rusted maintained his
driver's licence up until his death, passing his most recent medical
clearance from Butler two months before his death.
His interest in staying up-to-date on the world extended to technology. Rusted
owned an iPad, exchanged emails with family and friends and also engaged in
online voice chats.
"Nigel Rusted never grew old," said Butler. "He had
a young mind, he had a very curious mind, and he would always ask the question
'Why?' and then answer that with his own 'Why not?'"
His son Tom Rusted recalls a CT scan conducted on his father during his final
weeks in hospital.
"(The doctor) commented he had the brain of a 40-year-old," said
Tom Rusted, who had lived with his father for the past six months. "I'll
miss eating together, his stories, and his humour. He was always pleased to
see (his children) whenever we were around."
Nigel Rusted's other daughter, Elaine Hyde, spoke with him every day
until his death.
"He was always pleased to see me coming. He'd tell me what his
day was like up until that point, and I'd tell him what my day was like.
He was great."
Butler estimates there is a surgical lifetime of work Rusted completed without
pay.
"He has a filing cabinet that itemizes every operation he'd
done in his lifetime," said Butler. "He was paid for only three-quarters
of the work he'd done in his lifetime."
Rourke said treating people without receiving compensation was significant
for Rusted, given universal health care did not exist for most if his medical
career.
A funeral for Rusted will be held Thursday at the Anglican Cathedral in St.
John's at 11 a.m. Family and friends can visit Carnell's Funeral
Home today and Wednesday from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
