Henry J. Martin
1947-2016
Henry J. Martin- 69, of Lower
Coverdale, NB; passed away peacefully surrounded by his
family at The Moncton Hospital, on Saturday, September 17, 2016. He
was the son of the late Wilfred and Rita (nee Gaudet) Martin. He was
born in Murray Settlement, NB.
Henry worked as an Ironworker for 40 years. He had a passion
for building things, including his semi-famous steel framed garage at
the home he and his wife Linda shared in Point Du Chene. But his
biggest dream was to build a camp in the community he was brought up
in. His desire to build this camp was what gave him the strength to
get through his treatments and he completed his goal and has left his
family a legacy for us to enjoy.
