It is with great sadness that the family of the late Gary Edward Rowsell, age 29, announces his sudden passing on October 17, 2014 in Edmonton, AB. Gary was born on September 25, 1985 to Linda and David Rowsell of Jackson''s Cove, NL. As a young boy, Gary went to Sunday school and youth group. He enjoyed watching movies, wrestling and loved anything to do with eagles. He would always pick on his sister and do wrestling moves on her. He also spent a lot of time with his uncle Den watching movies and fooling around in the garage with the tools. He would also love to go and have a fine chat with his uncle Tony. Gary is one who loved his family very much. He graduated high school in 2003. He went and studied to become a mechanic but that just wasn''t for him. At a young age, Gary would always be playing with a hammer and nails, so after he came to realize that being a mechanic wasn''t what he wanted to become, he decided that he would be a carpenter instead. In January 2014, Gary went to Edmonton, AB for work, where he suddenly passed away. His family and all who knew him will truly miss him but he will never be forgotten. He leaves to mourn his mother Linda (Stan); son Dominic; sister Sarah (Jermaine); nephew Ethan; girlfriend Shellie; grandmother Emma; aunts Wanda (Dennis), Bonnie (Randy), Fronie (Francis), Marion and Lucy; uncles Tony (Phyllis) and David (Karen). Pre-deceased by son baby David; father David Rowsell; grandparents Judson and Velma King; grandfather Edward Rowsell.
