Thank you, Harold, for sharing this obituary. This is my mom's cousin. She didn't know he had passed away. Diane Diane Tibert Fowl Summer Nights is about a retired Canada Post worker whose husband has passed on and she's left with an empty nest. Her children tell her to get a hobby, so she does—one that drives her neighbours crazy. Coming this March: a story that will make you laugh out loud...Fowl Summer Nights Check it out: http://quartercastlepublishing.com/books/humour/fowl-summer-nights/ Take a drive down Shamo Drive and see Mrs. Vorwerk at her mailbox. If you stop to talk with the decrepit widow, look out for flying teeth. A little further down the road is Angus Mills. He’s your typical widower with a backyard pool, rose bush and a love for spying on old women. Squished between these two experienced elderly pensioners is Mildred Fowler. Unlike her neighbours, Mildred hasn’t yet mastered the art of being a retired widow. Given her spunk and passion for life however, she’s bound to stir up a little trouble in the community of Welsummer when armed with the proper determination. > From: hgrandy@nf.sympatico.ca > To: NFLD-ROOTS@rootsweb.com > Date: Sun, 9 Mar 2014 12:17:33 -0230 > Subject: [NL-ROOTS] Burin Peninsula Obituary (Appleby) > > > > Jerry Appleby (November 4, 1951 – March 7, 2014) > > Passed away suddenly on Friday, March 7, 2014, at the Health Science Center in St. John's, Jerry Ralph Appleby at the age of 62 years.
