Obituary
It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of Gayland Thorson on Sunday, April 16th, 2023 at Avondale.
He was predeceased by his parents, Gerard & Jennie (nee Antinichuk) Thorson and son Craig Thorson.
Leaving behind to mourn are his wife Rosemary, son Kevin, stepdaughter Christy Wiseman (nee Byrne-O’Brien), step granddaughter Cairly Rose and sister Sheila Abocrombie, brother-in-law Michael, niece Bailey, as well as a circle of other relatives and friends.
Gayland met Rosemary whilst looking for some land by the water in Western Canada. With Rose’s push he went to Newfoundland to look for property and there, Gayland fell in love the people and the land. He bought 3 acres and the happiest years of his life were in Newfoundland building his home and making wonderful friends, Gayland was so proud to be a part of Newfoundland.
A special thank you to the Avondale Firefighters who were such a great help, To Alice & Kevin Flaherty and all the wonderful people who have phoned or stopped by.
At Gayland’s request, cremation has taken place. There will be a “Spirit of Life” event with information to follow in approximately 3 weeks.
Gayland loved Merle Haggard. Please play Silver Wings sometime when you have a chance, hell, play them all on bust!
