ERIC POWELL Eric Powell died on Saturday, October 19, 2002 as a result of liver cancer. We, his children and our spouses, Adrian and Brenda, Gaynor, Nicholas and Janice and Vanessa are as devastated as we were on the death of our mum (Mona Powell) in 1995; his grandchildren, Naomi and Leighton and his great-grandchildren, Olivia and Connor, will miss his wit, wisdom, humour and beautiful voice as will everyone who knew him. After mum died dad was lucky enough to find love, joy and companionship again with Eileen Hurley of Manchester, England, she and her family will miss him very much as will friends and family on both sides of the Atlantic. Thank you to the WHRA homecare workers and nurses who cared for Dad, Dr. C. Olweny and the staff of CancerCare Manitoba and Dr. T. Chlysta. Thanks to the friends, neighbours and choir members who took the time to call, visit or send a card and let dad know they were thinking of him. At dads request there will be no funeral and cremation has taken place. The family will hold an open house at 310 Olive St. (Dads home) on Sunday, October 27 from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. Flowers gratefully declined, please remember Eric in you own way.
