ALLEN, William T. and Ellen Mary - William T. Allen and
Ellen Mary (Mulrooney) Byrne celebrated the sacrament of marriage
at the Basilica of St. John the Baptist 67 years ago on June 26, 1941.
They will celebrate a joint funeral mass in the same church and be
laid to rest together in their beloved Newfoundland at 12:00 noon,
Monday October 27, 2008. William was born August 28, 1922 in St. John's,
the first son of William and Emma Allen. He died at home in Cranbrook,
BC October 2, 2008. He worked as a cobbler and other miscellaneous
jobs in St. John's.
During the Second World War, he and his family traveled to the New York
State, USA where he worked on farms during the labor shortage of the
war. He returned to Newfoundland in 1947, then moved west to Ontario
where he worked in a puzzle factory. In 1956 he and his family made the
long trek to British Columbia where he managed the farmlands of Saint
Eugene's Indian Mission near Cranbrook. In later years he worked
in a local sawmill and retired in 1987. William was an avid fisherman
and outdoorsman and thoroughly loved the rugged mountains of British
Columbia.
Ellen Mary was born April 12, 1923 in Great Paradise, Newfoundland
to Douglas and Louisa Byrne. Louisa died shortly after Ellen Mary's
birth. Ellen Mary was raised by her uncle and aunt, Joe and Margaret
Mulrooney in St. John's and was known as Ellen Mary (Nellie) Mulrooney.
She had many stories of growing up in St. John's when life was
much simpler than it is today. She learned a love of music and dance
that followed her into her adult life. In Cranbrook she was active in
the children's programs at St. Mary's Church. Later she was
involved with the Senior Citizens Center, managing programs and performing
with their musical group throughout the region. She was a prolific poet
and was published often in the local newspaper. She died October
25, 2007 in Cranbrook. It was her wish that she and Bill be
buried at Mount Carmel cemetery between her Pop and Mom Mulrooney.

children survive them, Margaret Gunther of Wallace, Idaho; William and
wife, Patricia, of Lacombe, AB; Elwin and wife Judith, of Kalispell,

COOPER, Ronald “Ron” C. - October 28, 1912
- October 27, 2008. On October 27th,
as a Golden Eagle symbolically circled above, Ron Cooper passed
away at Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Memorial Hospice Home in Kamloops
BC on the eve of his 96th birthday. His wife Elaine,
daughter Lynne of Kelowna, sons Mel of Victoria, Ron of Kamloops, Gary
of Kamloops, and Wayne of West Vancouver, were there for him as he
had been there for them all his life.rnRon was the respected and admired
founder of what is now known as Cooper's Foods in the BC Interior.
Born in St. John's, Newfoundland, he struck out on his own at
the age of 17, starting his first small confectionary store with less
than $70 in his pockets. A popular St. Bon's athlete, he was
once described as “the strongest man of his size I've
ever met.” Working
with his wife, the late Mildred (Brophy) at his side, he grew his business
to include the popular Signal Hill Grocery. Answering the call to “go
west,” Ron, Mildred and family moved to Vancouver in 1945.
Ron's
Magee Grocery was his entry into the business world in BC. Moving to
the BC Interior (Revelstoke) with sons Ron, Gary and Wayne, the Cooper's
spread their wings, adding supermarkets in Kelowna, Kamloops, Vernon
and beyond. Honesty, integrity and hard work were his by-words.
In
2001, Ron and wife Elaine settled down in peaceful Logan Lake, where
he was seen every day walking his dogs and breathing in the fresh air.
The family wishes to thank Elaine for her love and care of their father.
She was always there for him. Ron will be missed by stepsons Jeff and
Randy Craddock, both of Vancouver, and by many friends. Ron also leaves
17 grandchildren, 24 great-grandchildren, six great-great grandchildren
and six step-grandchildren. His always positive approach to life will
be their inspiration. Special thanks from the family to the warm and
friendly staff at Kamloops Hospice, Dr. Mavis Hollman, and the staff
at Royal Inland Hospital. The Mass of Christian Burial will be held
at 11:00 am on Monday, November 3, 2008 at the St. John Vianney Parish,
2826 Bank Road, Westsyde, Kamloops. Monsignor Jerry Desmond, Celebrant.
A reception and celebration of Ron's life will follow in the church
hall. rnIn lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate if donations
were made in Ron's memory to the Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Memorial
Hospice Home, 72 Whiteshield Cr., South, Kamloops BC, V2E 2S9.rnrnKamloops

DEVINE, Charles S. - (May 7, 1928 - Oct.
1, 2008) - His close friends Marilyn and Ron Pumphrey announce
herewith that Charlie's wonderful spirit vacated his long-suffering
body early Wednesday morning. It occurred at St. Clare's Hospital
where he had been born and where his mother once worked, and until
his final two days our great buddy was fully cognizant and appreciative
of the professional and personal care afforded him by doctors, nurses,
and other staff, and by his long-time close friend, retired nurse Mary
Neary. In accordance with his wishes, Charlie's remains have
been cremated at Caul's Funeral Home. (He put a little something
aside for a wine and cheese party to be held later.) This true gentleman
and uncompromising realist will be sadly missed by numerous friends
and acquaintances, including fellow tenants at the Bristol Senior's
Complex, members of the Elks Club, his “country buddies,” and
patrons of Christine's Place. Charlie was the son of the entrepreneurial
Louis A. Devine and Alice Hearn Devine, and grandson of historic P.K.
Devine. Upon graduating with a general commercial certificate, Charlie
worked in his father's businesses until he secured an executive
civilian position, with officer status, with the USAF in St. John's,
in Greenland, and in the U.S. Ultimately he moved to Labrador as a
statistician with the Iron Ore Company of Canada. Having run on an
Independent ticket be became the first elected MHA for Labrador West
where he founded the still current newspaper “Aurora.” A
noted “community man,” Charles S. Devine was elected to
various responsible positions in Lab West, including the presidencies
of Rotary and the Chamber of Commerce. When he retired in St. John's
he became the driving force behind the establishment and promotion
of the local branch of the national Canadian Association of Retired
Persons (CARP), an affiliate of the U.S. predecessor association, AARP.

we may well be spiritual beings living a human existence.”

evening of October
20, 2008 after a sudden illness and a courageous and dignified
fight. Susie Q was a marvellous woman, a loving daughter, sister, wife,
mother, sister-in-law and community volunteer. She was very passionate
about soccer and basketball. Many will remember her coaching, cheering
and volunteering with dozens of teams over the years and few could question
her knowledge of the game - both on and off the field. Those who knew
Susan understood what she meant to her work within Government Services
for over 30 years. She was a proud and passionate civil servant in her
numerous capacities and she will be missed. Born May 2 1956, Sue lived
in Winnipeg and there she met her surviving loving husband Doug Gordon
at age 14. She found true love and came to Newfoundland to be with Doug
after school. Married in 1975, Sue and Doug filled their hearts and their
home with children John-Paul and Melanie, Sarah and Jon (Williams) and
Melissa. Sue was the perfect mother - loving,
doting, affectionate, involved and protective of her kids and they and
their friends filled her life. She was truly loved by many. Also missing
Susie are parents Cathy and Don McComber, brothers David, Dana and wife
Brenda, sister Jennifer Cameron and daughter Micaela, the Gordon family,
Kathy, Dan and Travis Maher, her forever friend Trish MacDonald, Julie
Gorman and numerous aunts, cousins, nieces, nephews, friends, and co-workers.
A special thanks to Dan, Kathy and Travis for everything that they have
done over the years and especially during this difficult time. Flowers
are gratefully declined. Donations in Sue's memory can be made to the
Canadian Cancer Society's Daffodil Place. We would like to thank Thelma
and Albert Williams and all other family and friends for their support,
best wishes and comfort. Friends are invited to remember Susan with the
family at Barrett's Funeral Home on Commonwealth Ave., Mount Pearl
on Thursday October 23rd and Friday October 24th from

I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glint on snow. When
you awaken in the morning hush, I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I
am the swift uplifting rush, Of quiet birds in circle flight I am bright
stars that shine at night, I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the
gentle autumn rain. Do not stand on my grave and weep, I am not there,
I do not sleep"

surrounded by her loving family early Thursday morning, October
16, 2008.
Daughter of Len (and Barbara) Schwartz of St. John's, N.L.; Marina and
Olav Johannessen of Hubley. A wonderful sister to Brian, David and Stephanie
and a loving friend to so many that were fortunate to know her. We will
all remember Sandra for her passionate approach to life. A love of photography
and painting was reflected in the images that constantly surrounded her.
Her unique sense of style was reflected in the original jewelry she wore
and her love of colour. Sandra's extensive world travels were reflected
in the ethnic cuisine that she enjoyed creating and sharing. Sandra's
passion extended fully into her professional life; many years as a travel
agent while completing an undergrad and masters degree in psychology
and behavioral science, and recent positions with the Department of National
Defense in Ottawa and Halifax. Sandra courageously overcame many challenges
during her 15 year battle with cancer. Her most recent triumph was an
accumulation of many races that included a half marathon only a short
time ago. Sandra never gave up the fight, but her marathon of hope is
now over. Her spirit will live with us forever. Our family would like
to thank all our friends for their constant love and support. In addition
we thank the many nurses and doctors at the QEII Cancer and Palliative
Care Units. Burial took place on October 18, 2008 at Oakridge Memorial
