<p><span>It is with mixed emotions that we announce the death of Rodney Vatcher at the age of 51. We are happy that he is at peace after a determined fight that he knew from the outset he couldn’t win but we will sorely miss the vibrant and life-loving person he was. Husband, step-dad, brother, uncle, teammate or friend – whatever role you knew him as you surely knew that he could be counted on to give it his all and that he would always have your back.</span></p> <p><span>He leaves to mourn his wife, Karen and step-daughters Jessica and Sarah; brothers: <span> </span>Lew (Marlene), Bruce (Beverly), Ed (Maxine), Jack (Ro); Sisters: Doris (Max), Clara (Pius), Ruth (Jim), Ada (Phil), Hilda (Aiden) and Irene (Kenny) ; as well as a large number of nieces and nephews and a wide circle of friends and extended family.</span></p> <p><span>He was predeceased by his Mom and Dad and his brother Claude.</span></p> <p><span>The remains are resting at St. John the Evangelist Anglican Church in Burgeo from which the funeral will take place on Thursday, September 21<sup>st</sup> at 2pm. Interment to follow at Burgeo Community Cemetery.</span></p> <p><span>Visitation will take place on Wednesday, September 20<sup>th</sup> from 2-4 pm and from 7-9 pm. </span></p>
