June 30th 1957 – April 20th 2023

Hayward Perry Newhook, age 65, of Norman’s Cove, NL Passed away peacefully on April 20th, 2023 at the DR. LA. Miller Centre, surrounded by loved ones. His family is deeply saddened by his sudden and unexpected passing after a brief battle with lung cancer.

Perry was predeceased by his father Hayward Newhook. He is survived by his mother Elizabeth Newhook, wife Cindy Newhook, son Perry Newhook Jr, his siblings, Brother Bernard Newhook and wife Denise Newhook. Sister Charlotte Smith and husband Merrill Smith. Sister Kay Piercey and husband Rick Piercey. Sister Norma Bursey and husband Barry Bursey. As well as many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, in-laws and friends. All of whom held a special place in his heart. 

Perry always truly lived his life to the fullest, and enjoyed every moment. His laughter was infectious and his positive carefree attitude was truly something to admire, and one that everybody should strive to emulate. He never held a grudge or sweated the little things in life. He was loved by everyone who ever had the pleasure of knowing him. He had so many great life long friendships from one end of the country to the other. He treated everybody the same, and stayed true to himself. That quality was very evident, and easy for everybody to sense the sincerity with which he conducted himself. He will be deeply missed by many people.

A Service to celebrate Perry’s life will be held on Monday April 24th at the Good Sheppard Anglican Church in Normans Cove at 2:00PM. Followed by a gathering at the lodge and his family home for people to reminisce, share stories and have a few laughs remembering all of the amazing experiences they shared with him, which is exactly what Perry would have wanted.
