Gerry moved to Vermont in 1942 to work on a farm in Jeffersonville owned by Milo and Nettie Porter. This farm most would know as the "1829 House". This is where he met and married the farmer's daughter, Marion Porter, on September 9, 1962.

They made numerous trips to his childhood home in Newfoundland. After marrying Stella he "inherited" five step-daughters whom he continued to have a relationship with after the death of their mother Stella on May 30, 1990. Gerry then married Crystal True on June 6, 1992 and continued to reside in Jeffersonville. They traveled to Maine frequently to Crystal's home. Crystal and Gerry loved to travel to Newfoundland and attended Fryeburg Fair on a regular basis.

I have slipped the surly bonds of earth, And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth Of sun-split clouds, --and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of --Wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung My eager craft through footless halls of air...Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace Where never lark or even eagle flew -- And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God. John Gillespie Magee, Jr

PEDDIGREW, Christopher Robert - (April 8,1969 - February 6, 2014) - It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Chris. We shall be eternally grateful for his peaceful departure from this life in the arms of his loving family. Predeceased by his dear "Uncle Jim", James Patrick Beehan; beloved family friend "Grover/Ross", John Michael Rossiter (Paramedic); grandparents Edward and Mary Beehan and Bob (Sr.) and Maisie Peddigrew. Leaving to mourn, and to cherish and celebrate his life are: his wife Jessica and her family in Arizona; parents Bob and Marguerite; best friend brothers Rob (Jeannette) and Geoff; and his "Bestest Little Buddy" nephew Ty Peddigrew. As anyone who knew Chris would readily attest, he had a big heart and an ever present infectious smile that would light up any room. His larger-than-life presence will be sadly missed by a very large number of friends from Newfoundland to British Columbia and throughout the world. He was a free spirit who travelled extensively making new acquaintances, many of whom, like those encountered throughout his grade school and university life, became life-long friends. A Facebook page entitled "Memories of Chris Peddigrew" provides ample testimony to the depth and extent of his friendship and to the high regard in which he was held by so many. After graduation (BA-Econ.) from Memorial University in 1993, completion of the Canadian Securities Course in1994 and subsequent related Investment courses, Chris began his career in Securities trading with TD Waterhouse of Vancouver and eventually assumed the position of Branch Manager of TD Green Line Investor Services in St.John's. The urge to move out into the world was ever present and led him back to Vancouver in 1999 where he became an Investigative Analyst with the Canadian Venture Exchange. In March of 2000, as a founding Executive member of the newly formed Qtrade Investor Services of Vancouver, he assumed the position of Manager, Trading Floor. Within a very short time of it's formation, thanks in some part to Chris' contribution, Qtrade was ranked by The Globe and Mail as No.1 in the very competitive discount brokerage business in Canada, a position which it has maintained for 7 years. In 2008, following completion of advanced courses and training in Information Technology, Chris was appointed to the position of VP Partner Relations with Broadstreet Services Inc., a technology consulting firm based in Vancouver. Prior to his untimely passing, he was Consultant to a variety of major international companies utilizing real-time interactive applications accessed via the Internet. He was a man of the world but through it all, he had time to visit his family often, either in Newfoundland or on vacation elsewhere and at every Christmas season, to create beautiful decorations especially for his beloved mother, Marguerite. His father Bob was so proud to be told on many, many occasions "Pops-you're my No.1 hero!" Thank you to our wonderful family, other relatives and many kind friends who have showered us with love and compassion through these difficult months. With God's and Chris' help we'll meet this challenge! Our heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Dawn DeWitt and the medical and nursing staff of the Vancouver General Hospital, who extended compassionate and excellent care to Chris and his family. Cremation has taken place and a heartwarming Memorial Service was held in Vancouver on February 12th. A Mass of Christian Burial, Memorial Service and Reception will be held at St. Peter's Parish church in Mount Pearl on August 1st, 2014 at 3:00 PM. In Chris' memory donations may be made to the Canadian Diabetes Association.

WALSH, Elizabeth - It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Elizabeth Walsh of Chapel Arm at the age of 95 on Feb. 11, 2014. Beth was our dear mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, beloved sister, aunt and friend. She was a remarkable woman who led a courageous and adventurous life. Although we are deeply saddened at her sudden passing, we are also deeply grateful for her long life, sharp intelligence and relatively good health until the very end. Her vibrant health was due in no small part to her lifelong passion for walking, whether it was shopping tirelessly, hiking in the Rockies, or for energetically exploring on her travels, a highlight of which was a visit to the Holy Land. A fiercely proud Newfoundlander, Beth lived for many years in Toronto, where she acquired an appreciation for city life. But she was never happier than when she "was in the country," casting her fishing rod or tramping over the barrens in search of the best berry patch. A highlight of her 95th birthday celebrations was landing a few trout as dusk turned into darkness.
Beth, as she preferred to be known, was born Sarah Elizabeth Newhook, on July 18, 1918, to Martha and John Newhook of Norman's Cove. Her father perished in a snowstorm in 1925, leaving Martha with four young children: Mahala, Elizabeth, Julia and Joseph. Beth was raised by her Aunt Phoebe and Uncle Will Warren in Chapel Arm, along with their children, Clarence, Francis, Nath and Levi. The boys considered her a sister and she considered them her brothers. Beth married William James Piercey in 1941 upon his return from serving in Scotland with the Newfoundland Forestry Unit in the Second World War. They named their first son Francis in memory of Beth's brother, Francis Warren, who was lost on the S.S. Caribou in 1942. Beth and Bill's first child, Baby Francis only lived for three months. But Beth and Bill went on to build a happy life together, especially while living in Placentia Junction in the early years and raising their three girls. Bill died suddenly in 1968 and after living as a widow for 24 years, Beth married Lorne Walsh of Chapel Arm. They enjoyed eight fun-filled years until Lorne died in 2000.
Beth is survived by her three daughters: Joyce (Ray Matier) of Oakville, Ont; Jennie (Paul Chouinard) of Campbellton, N.B., Judy (Ian Stewart) of Edmonton, Alta. Also by five grandsons: Russell Matier (Jennifer), Brampton, Ont; Brian Matier (Jennifer), Niagara Falls, Ont; Bill Piercey (Lisa), Fort McMurray, Alta; Stephen Piercey (Angela), Resolute, Nunavut; Jeffrey Piercey (Heather) Long Cove. Great-grandchildren: Lindsay Matier, Zachary Piercey, Joshua Piercey, Taya Piercey, Kira Piercey, Jerome (Idlout) Piercey, Jacob Piercey, Chloe Matier and Mia Matier. Also survived by her brother Levi Warren (Irene) of Bonavista, sister-in-law Hazel Warren, St. John's; brother-in-law William Newhook of Norman's Cove. And special nieces and nephews: Ron Tulk, Allan Tulk, Wanda Petcoff in Ontario, Eileen Doucette, St. John's; Willie and Jean Hynes, Chapel Arm; Bernard Piercey, Norman's Cove; Frank and Valerie Newhook, Grand Falls and Phoebe MacLean of Vancouver, B.C. Beth was predeceased by her first husband, William Piercey, son Francis, great grandson Seth Piercey; her sisters Mahala Tulk, Julia Smith, and Cherry Newhook, brothers Joseph Newhook, Francis Warren, Clarence Warren, Nath Warren, dear friends and sisters-in-law Ethel Warren and Edith Hynes Smith, and her second husband Lorne Walsh.
Beth lived in her own home in Chapel Arm until a couple of weeks before her passing, assisted by several care givers to whom we are most grateful. We especially thank Evelyn Newhook and Clara Moore for their companionship and compassion. We will be forever indebted to Alvin and Ivy Reid for their special friendship and going well above and beyond. Beth was a deeply spiritual woman, whose abiding faith sustained her many tribulations. She was a founding member of Faith Pentecostal Tabernacle congregation in Norman's Cove, where she is resting. Visitation will be Friday 2-4 p.m. and 6-8 p.m. with service on Saturday at 2 p.m. Funeral arrangements by Holloways. If you wish to make a charitable donation in her memory, please contribute to the MS Society of Canada, Beth's favored charity.
