"When I come to the end of the road,
And the sun has set for me,
I want no nights in a gloom filled room,
Why cry for a soul set free.
Miss me a little but not too long,
And not with your heads bowed low,
Remember the love and the laughter we shared,
Miss me but let me go.
For this journey we all must make,
And each must go alone,
It's all a part of the Master's plan,
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart,
Go to friends we know,
And bury your sorrow in doing good deeds,
Miss me but let me go."

Coady, Gerald Francis Michael

May 5th, 2000, Gerald passed through, surrounded
by Irma, his bride of 44 years; his sons; Timothy, Christopher
and Michael, and their wives; Ariana (Sheardown), Jan (Hewitt)
and Brenda (Charest). Grandpa to Cheston, Hayden, Devon and Elizabeth.
Gerald was a beloved Husband, Father, Grandfather, Brother, Uncle
and Friend. Dad's life was dedicated to providing harmony in
the lives of everyone he knew. He loved to laugh and unfortunately
never shied away from telling any of the thousand bad jokes he
knew, whenever he felt it was necessary, which was often. He
enjoyed his home and garden, and loved when we were all together
as a family. His proudest moments were in the marriages, birth
and graduation of his children and grandchildren. Born May 8th,
1934 in St. John's, Newfoundland to Thomas and Anne Coady (Lambert),
part of a family that included 5 brothers and 8 sisters. Gerald
embodied all the hospitality, dignity and humility that Newfoundlanders
are famous for. He was a proud Newfoundlander and returned often
to visit friends and family. In 1956 Gerald married Irma (Sandmann)
in Vancouver before settling in Burnaby to raise his family.
He worked for the Burnaby School Board for many years before
retiring in 1998. He taught us well. He loved us a lot. We miss
him deeply. Funeral Mass to be celebrated Thursday, May 11th,
2000 at 11 am at St. Francis de Sales. Father Gary Franken Celebrant,

"I'm Free, Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free,
I'm following the path God laid for me;
I took His hand when I heard Him call, I turned my back and left
it all.
I could not stay another day, to laugh, to love, to work or play;
Task left undone must stay that way,
I found that place at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void, then fill it up with remembered
joy;
A friendship share, a laugh, a kiss.
Ah yes, these things, I too, will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow;
My life's been full, I savoured much,
Good friends, good time, loved ones' touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief;
Lift up your head and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free."

"I'm Free, don't grieve for me, for now I'm free,
I'm following the path God laid for me;
I took His hand when I heard Him call,
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work or play;
Task left undone must stay that way,
I found that place at the close of day,
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it you with remembered Joy;
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Ah yes these things, I too, will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow;
My life's been full, I savoured much,
Good friends, good times, loves ones' touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief;
Lift up your head and share with me.
God wanted me now, He set me free."

at her home in Toronto, peacefully after an indominatable, five-year
fight against breast cancer. Sandra was the wife, partner and
lifelong love of Richard Gwyn of Toronto. She was the beloved
daughter of Ruth Harley of Ottawa and the late Claude Fraser
of St. John's, and step-daughter of the late Frank Harley. She
is cherished by her brother, Rory Harley, his wife Jane and their
sons; Christopher and Michael, by her sister-in-law Danielle
Fraser and her son Christian Pavey, and by a multitude of friends.
Sandra studied at the Sacred Heart Convent, Halifax, and at Dalhousie
University, graduating in 1955. Following a year in England,
she returned to marry Richard and to settle in Ottawa. After
years as a freelance researcher, Sandra discovered her own voice
in the early 1970's. She became Ottawa Editor for Saturday Night
Magazine and won a succession of awards. Her first book, The
Private Capital, published in 1984, won the Governor General's
Award, her second, Tapestry of War, was as highly praised. Sandra's
lifelong passion was Newfoundland. In the 1970's, she was one
of the few who foresaw the blooming of Newfoundland's extraordinary
cultural renaissance-"Flowers On The Rock"-
in her own phrase. She promoted Newfoundland's artistic accomplishments
tirelessly and eloquently. Her contributions were recognized
by an Honorary Degree from Memorial University and by election
to the Hall of Honor of the Arts Council of Newfoundland and

announces the death of John Andrew Thomas Rundle,
53 of Moose River, formerly of Westville at the VG Site, QE 11,
Halifax on May 11th, 2000, after

boilermaker by trade and a member of Local 73 International Brotherhood
of Boilermakers. For the past 12 years he was employed by ABB
Power as Construction Supervisor for the Atlantic Provinces.
He took great pride in his work and got tremendous satisfaction
on bringing in a "shut down" on time. He will
be remembered as an instructor for many rigging courses for the
Dept. of Labour and local industries. For the past several summers
John's work took him to Newfoundland, where he was able to indulge
in his passion for the outdoors, especially fishing and hunting.
He shared this passion with his wife of 33 years, Ida and his
faithful companion, his black Lab., Riley.
John was an avid sports fan and especially enjoyed hockey and
baseball. He played on the Westville Gentleman's and Old-Timer's
Hockey Leagues and the Westville Miners Baseball Team. Throughout
his life, her never gave up on the Toronto Maple Leafs, always
optimistic that next season would be the winning one.
Surviving besides his father, are his wife, Ida (Wells); children;
Trudy and Richard Duggan, Westville, Heather and Aaron Millen,
Westville, Tracey Rundle and Leonard Marendiuk, Regina, SK; sister
Sharon and Fred Charlton, Trenton; father-in-law Freeman and
Marlene Wells, Trenton; several nieces and nephews. He was an
adoring "Grampy" to grandchildren; Shona Duggan,
Jeanetta Millen and Johnathon Marendiuk. He was predeceased by
a sister, Karen Ann, in infancy. At John's request, cremation
has taken place and there will be no visitation or service. A
family gathering will take place at a later date in celebration
of John's life. Anyone wishing to give a gift in John's memory,

"When I come to the end of the road,
And the sun has set for me
I want no nights in a gloom filled room,
Why cry for a soul set free.
Miss me a little but not too long.
And not with your heads bowed low,
Remember the love and the laughter we shared,
Miss me but let me go,
For this journey we all must make,
And each must go alone,
It's all a part of the Master's Plan,
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart,
Go to friends we know,
And bury your sorrow in doing good deeds,
Miss me but let me go."
