She is survived by her only child, Karynhappuch Louise Tayn Noseworthy, Her mother Lucretia Pear and 2 brothers, Winston & Carl Pear. Maureen was a graduate of MUN & began her nursing career here in NL , St Johns, CornerBrook and several institutions in Nova Scotia , before she returned back home "to the rock" where she was born, and the Humber Valley she thought so beautiful and loved so much. A nurse who had a innate understanding what it meant to give comfort and hope to those suffering. And that same ability to give unconditional love & acceptance is what made her such a memorable & special human-being. She lived the everydayness of her life knowing that love was indeed a verb. She embodied service above self. Maureen had a God given talent for music and writing. She wrote countless short stories, plays and sermons over the years and sang often at church and other functions. Those years of song, and having studied Opera at the Royal Conservatory in younger days in Nova Scotia remained heart happy memories for her.
