It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of Richard Thomas Fowler of Mount Carmel, St. Mary’s Bay on Sunday, July 30th, 2023. A beloved husband, brother, uncle and friend.
He was predeceased by his parents; Richard and Kathleen (nee Hawco) Fowler and parents-in-law; Patrick and Margaret (nee Casey) Hunt.

Richard was a lifelong resident of Mount Carmel. He was an active member of St. Mary’s Council #13320 Knights of Columbus and was actively involved in all aspects of his parish. He spent many hours, days and weeks working to build up Our Lady Of Mount Carmel Parish, especially the church and cemetery.

Richard was known, respected and loved by many and was always ready and willing to volunteer his many skills to anyone needing help, especially gardening, which he loved.
