Carl Gushue Obituary
Passed away peacefully in the presence of his family and friends at Health Science Centre ICU after suffering a severe stroke.
Left behind with fond loving memories are his mother Ann Boland-Gushue, Brother Billy Gushue (Tina), Uncle and best friend Carl Boland, Aunts Nellie Boland and Ev Boland (Walter, Deceased) his only Niece Emily Joudrey, Cousins Corwin Boland (Carmen, Declan and Dannan), Krista McDonald (Rodney, Erin and Emma), Barbara, Sandra and Cheryl Boland of Ontario and very special feline companion Willie.
Predeceased by his sister Sandy Gushue, Grandparents Will and Till Boland and Uncles Joe Boland (Gladys), Walter Boland and Bill Kavanagh.
Carl had a 28-year career in the Canadian Air Force serving his country with pride, being stationed in CFB Edmonton, Goose Bay, Trenton, Borden, Gander and Halifax and two deployments to Afghanistan. Although his career took him all over the world where he met many people and shared his kindness and charismatic way, his happiest place was in the Lane, in his “Man Cave” where he had many visitors who will miss him dearly.
Cremation has taken place as Carl wished. Visitation will be held at Ryan’s Funeral Home, Bay Bulls on Friday, November 3rd from 2-9pm. Funeral Mass will take place at Immaculate Conception Church, Calvert on Saturday, November 4th at 10am.
Flowers gratefully accepted or donations can be made to a charity of one's choice.
So take your place of honour
Among those who have gone before
And know you will be remembered
For now and evermore
