Norman Rogers Gaskin
1925-2018
Norman Gaskin, 93, of Jordan LifeCare
Centre and formerly of Riverview and Upper Coverdale, went Home to be
with his Lord and Saviour on June 26, 2018.
Norman was born in Gunningsville, N.B.
(now Riverview) and lived in the area all his life. He was
the youngest son of the late Harry and Bessie (Rogers)
Gaskin.
He worked as a Carman in the CNR shops
for forty years, retiring in 1982. He had a great sense of humour and
was always up for sharing a prank or joke with his co-workers. After
retirement, he enjoyed volunteering for the Salem and Hillsborough
Railroad, birdwatching, and working in his flower and vegetable
gardens.
He was predeceased by a brother, Albert,
and his wife, Barbara (2015).
He will be dearly missed by his
daughter, Ruth Sharon Wheatley, and Ruth’s husband George E. Wheatley
of Upper Coverdale. He will also be missed by special friends Stephen
and Cheryl Epley of Red Bluff, California.
Resting at Salisbury Funeral Home
(372-4800) from where a private family gathering will be held. In
keeping with Norman’s wishes, there will be no public funeral service
or visitation. Interment will take place at the Wesleyan Union
Cemetery, Coverdale, N.B.
If so desired, donations in Norman’s
memory can be made to Friends of the Moncton Hospital, or Friends of
the Jordan LifeCare Centre.
The family would like to extend a
special thanks to the staff at the Jordan LifeCare Centre for the
excellent care provided and kindness shown during the time he spent
there. As well, we wish to thank Sue Weir and the other gals at Senior
Companion for their good service and thoughtfulness shown when he
resided at home.
