Richard’s Obituary
MacADAMS, RICHARD VINCENT – It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Richard on Wednesday, February 24, 2021, at Yarmouth Regional Hospital, with his family by his side. It is with celebration that we announce his advancement to the presence of God – his Heavenly Father. Richard was born on May 12, 1950 in Charlesville to Keith and Ruby MacAdams, a brother for Brenda. His working career included Sealife Fisheries; BC Packers; the Vanguard newspaper; and 42 years at Wilson’s Home Hardware. He was a long time member of Wood’s Harbour Wesleyan Church where he served in pastoral care and many leadership positions; Chaplain of Royal Canadian Legion Branch 148, Clark’s Harbour and volunteer at ERMES with their Breakfast Program. His greatest hobby was his granddaughter, Olivia. He is survived by his loving wife of 51 years, Carolyn; son Tait (Johnna); granddaughter, Olivia; mother, Ruby; special sister Brenda (whom he nicknamed “Face”); uncle, Wayne Stevens; nephew John Wayne Sears (Janet); niece, Lisa Goodwin (Jed); grandnieces Sasha Crowell, Talent Wilson; grandnephew, Kyle Sears and many, many friends. Richard never met a stranger; they were just a friend he hadn’t met yet. Visitation will be at the church on Sunday, February 28, 2021 from 3-8 p.m. A Celebration of his Life will be held on Monday at 2:00 p.m. at the Wood’s Harbour Wesleyan Church, officiated by Rev. Alvin McComiskey and Rev. Jason Parker. Due to Covid restrictions, seating will be limited. The service will be streamed through Wood’s Harbour Wesleyan Church facebook page and followed by a reception at Wood’s Harbour Community Centre.
