Obituary For Bernard Gerald Edwards
It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Bernard Gerald Edwards in Grande Prairie, Alberta at the Grande Prairie Care Centre at the age of 77 years.
Our Father spent most of his younger years as a fisherman, working both at the fish plant and on the trawler boats out on the Grand Banks.
He prided himself on helping raise his family, from his brothers and sisters to his sons and daughters and his grandchildren.
He enjoyed camping, reading western books and reminiscing about the past. He loved spending time with his family above all. He is gone but not forgotten, he will be forever in our hearts.
Leaving to mourn are his children Lisa Coulter (Jamie), Bernie Edwards (Karen), Corey Edwards (Kayla) and Sueann Cox (Steven), grandchildren Andrew, Justin, Emily, Cordell, Brianna, Dana and Kara, great-grandchildren Noah, Elijah, Isaiah, Lukah, Everly, Liam, Brady and Aria. His sisters Mary (David), Sarah Ann, Bernadette (Glen), Pauline (Sam), Marion (Terry) and Rita (Larry), stepbrother Howard (Madeline), brothers Gerald (Catherine), Thomas, Gus (Joan), Stan, Kevin, Anthony as well as numerous family members and friends.
Bernard is pre-deceased by his mother and father Rita and Stanislaus Edwards, daughter Lisa Edwards, granddaughter Danielle Cox, sister Virginia Cake and his nephew Scott Stoodley.
You will be sadly missed and forever cherished in our memories.
