Obituary
It is with great sadness that the families of Maude Florence (Gavin) Pinksen announce her passing at Sir Thomas Roddick Hospital, Stephenville, NL, on May 26th, 2024, in her 89th year.
Maude was born in Middle Arm, White Bay, to Thomas and Irene Gavin, on December 11, 1934. She grew up in Seal Cove, where she met and married the love of her life, Esau Pinksen. Together they had 11 children and spent their life in Seal Cove.
Maude was a very gentle, quiet, caring person who always put her family first. She loved to travel, cook, knit, play games, and was very good at playing prank jokes on people. She dearly loved her family, and her house was always full of fun, food and laughter. Her favorite thing was to have her children and their families visit. The more the merrier!
