HENRY CLIFFORD COATES
With heavy hearts we announce the sudden passing of Henry
Coates at home in Toronto, Ontario on Friday, February 26, 2021 at the
age of 67. He is now reunited with his late parents Alfred and Gladys
Coates and siblings Marjorie, Amy and Theresa.
Beloved brother of Edward (Cathy), Austin, (Yvonne), Lloyd
(Paula), Ivan (Gail) and Patsy (Dave). Dearly missed by many family
and friends, especially his little “candy crusher”
great-niece Shelby and his nieces and nephews whom all called him
“Uncle Bob”.
Henry was born and raised in Seldom Cove, NFLD and as a child
he could always be found doing his favourite thing –
colouring. About 40 years ago he made the decision to venture to
Toronto for more opportunities in life, but he still called home to
his family every night. He loved his Walmart shopping trips, Friday
take-out supper and in quieter moments he enjoyed time spent tending
to his flowers. He was proud of his east-coast heritage and in keeping
with his wish’s cremation will take place and he will be
brought home to NFLD.
In light of the current Covid-19 restrictions, the health and
safety of our families and our community continues to be our highest
priority. At this time, there will be a private funeral service from
the Isles Funeral Home on Friday, March 30, 2021 at
2pm.
