Raphael “Bud” Power entered eternal life on July 22, 2016. His spirit lives on in his four children, Brad, Angie, Marlene and Katie and his nine grandchildren, Sophia, Spencer, Sydney, Kaleb, Molly, Hazel, Emry, Forest, and Georgia.

From him they’ve learned a true love of the outdoors, the value of hard work and to give the shirt off your back for a stranger. In his lifetime he was known to frequent the salmon rivers, hunt moose in the Avalon wilderness, build something out of nothing, and take a car apart only to put it back together again.

He is survived and so dearly loved by his mother, Catherine, brothers and sisters, Maureen (Gord), Carolyn (Ian), Bill (Theresa), Janet (Barry), Terri (Tony), Mike (AKA Tapwater), Loretta (Ford), Howard (Michelle), and Bernadine (Johnny).

Predeceased by his father, Felix and brother, Pat.

Breta Collins (Nov 01, 1931 – July 01, 2016) It is with sadness that the family of the late Breta Collins (nee Collett) of Fair Haven, NL, age 84, announces her peaceful passing , on Friday July 01, 2016 from The Lions Manor Nursing Home, Placentia , NL.

(Gladys) Breta was born to Ernest and Mildred Collett in Famish Cove (Fair Haven) , Placentia Bay on November 01st, 1931. She was the first born of six children. On April 03, 1951 she married her partner for life, Clayton Collins also of Famish Cove. They built a little home in “The Bottom” where they raised a family of three boys and one girl and resided together for nearly 65 years until illness took her away to hospital on February 4th, 2016.

Breta enjoyed a long life as a faithful wife and devoted mother. In 1972 she assumed the position as Post Mistress at Fair Haven a job which she held for 25 years until her retirement in 1997.

Together with her husband (Clayton) and special daughter (Wanda) she spent countless days on the bogs and barrens and in the woods: berry picking, checking the rabbit snares, gathering firewood or just having a boil up and a cup of tea. Her greatest passion of all which she dearly loved was hours spent around any pond catching a few trout for the pan. She is also remembered for her great sense of humour. She loved to carry on and brought laughter and cheer to the faces and hearts of many. Her ability to worry was also one of her outstanding traits. If you could name it she could find a reason to worry about it.
