Richard Austin Park
June 18, 1931 – November 3, 2023
McIvers, NL
Austin, known to all as Aus, was welcomed into Heaven on November 3, 2023 by his granddaughter Joanne, his great granddaughter Janelle, his daughter-in-law Debby, his mother and father Christina and Richard Park, his parents-in-law Thomas and Ethel Parsons, his best buddy Eugene, as well as his many brothers and sisters and extended family.
Aus was born on June 18, 1931 in McIvers where he was raised and later made a full life for himself and his wife Susy. Together they raised their children Charlotte, Rich, Lonnie, Harvey and Barbara.
Aus loved the outdoors. He spent his working years as a logger with several companies including Bowaters. His greatest days in winter were spent hauling his winters wood with his pony. Summertime was his hay making and planting season. He was no stranger to hard work and embraced it head on with a smile on his face.
He loved a game of cards, his rides to “Middle Arm” and fishing with his buddies. But most of all he loved his family.
Aus will be greatly missed by his wife Susy of 71 years, his children Charlotte (Warwick), Rich (Harriet), Lonnie (Holly), Harvey, Barbara (Tony), his grandchildren Lori (Rich), Lorna (Fabian),Kimberley (Craig), Richard (Maureen), Jamie, Susy (Gary), and Adrian (Brittany), his great grandchildren Gabrielle (Jamie), Gavin, Garrett, Cassidy (Sam), Kennedy, Austin, Sophie, Jared, Jaxson, Monica, Lilly and Charlie, his sister Betty and brother-in-law Truman (Karen), as well as a large circle of extended family and friends.
He will forever be the best husband, father and grandfather that any family could be blessed to have.
