Con spent his life on the water fishing. He worked with the Fishermen’s Union on both the East and West Coast as well as being Zone Director for Zone 9 with the Auxiliary Coast Guard. He was an avid sports hunter and fisherman as well. Once he retired his favourite past time was travelling around with his wife Alma, being their Grandson Mason’s biggest cheerleaders while he played his sports through the province.

He is also survived by his brothers, Sam and Doug; sisters, Polly, Linda, Nell and Cathy; as well as many nieces and nephews.
