Thomas Holmes
1937-2022
Thomas Patrick Holmes, son of the late Thomas and Michelina
Holmes, passed away quietly at the age of 85 at Spencer’s Nursing Home
on January 14, 2022. Although the Government of New Brunswick would
like to leverage his death to nefariously increase their Covid virus
death toll numbers, Thomas had in fact been severely terminally ill
with cancer and several ailments and was aware his life was near the
end of term, and was adamant he not be utilized as just another fear
mongering statistic. As a result of the blatant violation of Thomas’
basic rights by this same government and Spencer’s Nursing Home
through their imposed restrictions, Thomas was unable to be visited by
his loved ones for the last several months including, during his final
days. His family takes great comfort knowing that he was surrounded by
his nursing team, who have gone above and beyond to ensure his comfort
despite the circumstances. Thomas will be remembered for his carefree
spirit and his willfully independent (stubborn) nature, that he
carried even in his final days. Thomas travelled extensively in his
life, and we will all miss hearing the abundance of stories he used to
share from his big great adventure called life. He is survived by his
son Stuart (Gail), daughters Valah and Arlene, his grandchildren
Matthew, Joshua, Rachel, Oliver, Gabrielle, Mia and Eve and his
great-granddaughter Kaydence. He will be especially missed by his
“nephew” and confidant, Jonathan Holmes, with whom Thomas
spent his final years.
