1951-2020
Wendell Coleman Sears, 68, of Amherst, NS passed away on May 7th, 2020 in Weldon, NB at the home of his daughter and son-in-law after a courageous battle with cancer.
Wendell was born in Sackville, NB on June 6, 1951
the son of the late Coleman Sears and Edith (Lewis) Sears of Point de
Bute, NB.
He worked at Enterprise Fawcett Foundry for most of his
life but later worked at the Weston Bakery. He was an avid
hunter and really enjoyed being outdoors in nature. He made
a camp to be able to get out in the woods and treasured
every minute of it. He enjoyed farming, he had a hobby farm
but also worked on bigger farms in Sackville throughout his
life. He enjoyed going for drives in the country with his
family and taking in the beautiful scenery and landmarks of the
Maritimes. He enjoyed playing cards, dancing and
just having fun. He was grateful to everyone who
brought him a cup of Tim Horton's coffee whenever they were going by,
it was his favourite treat. He was known for his sense of
humour, you never knew what he was going to say to get a
reaction, but you could count on having a good
laugh. His main priority in life was his
family. He cherished time spent with Sarah, who was always
daddy's little girl. He was so happy she met and married
Bradley and was proud of the life they started together. He
loved his wife Freda with all his heart, she passed in
November 2019 and they will be spending their 36th
Anniversary together in heaven. It gives Sarah peace to know
they are together again.
" Parents are one of God's first gifts to
our hearts and their love stays with us always."
He will be deeply missed by his mom, Edith; his daughter,
Sarah Parker (Bradley) of Weldon; sisters, Pauline Ormandy and Cathy
Grant (Gary); brothers, Stephen Sears (Judy) and Brian Sears (Angie)
