With heavy hearts we announce the passing of Edgar (Ed) Charles Hindy on October 9, 2017 at the Miller Centre (Palliative Care Unit), with his family by his side, after a long and courageous battle with illness. Ed was born on October 25, 1958 in St. John's, NL to proud parents Edgar J. and Shirley Hindy (nee Seward). Besides his parents, Ed will be lovingly remembered by his partner and best friend of 20 years, Sharon Walsh; his sister Karen (Greg) Preston; his children who he adored: Angela (Shawn) Omand, Adam (Rebekah) Hindy and Amanda (Doug) Gosse; his precious grandchildren: Ashton Hindy, Madison and Joshua Omand and Emily Gosse; Sharon's children: Kyla, Kerri, Kurtis and Kolin Walsh; nephew Ryan Preston and niece Kayla Preston; aunts: Betsy Hefford, Sally Seward and Norma Hindy; uncles: Martin (Sharon) Hindy and David Hindy; cousins: Albert (Valerie) Hefford, Sherry (Clayton) Bailey and Judy (Karen) Hefford; and special friends. Ed will always be remembered for his generous heart, quick wit, boisterous laugh, love of life, contagious smile and twinkle in his eye. Growing up he was always active, surrounded by friends, and loved fast cars, snow mobiles and motorcycles and was an avid collector of just about everything. As a child he spent many summers in New Perlican, NL, with his much loved Nan Seward and could be found most days with a fishing pole in his hands. After spending 26 years with the Federal Government (Department of Fisheries and Department of Taxation) he retired for health reasons in 2006. He has spent the last few years enjoying a slower pace of life, the company of his children and grandchildren and spending his winters in Florida. The family is especially grateful to the medical staff at the Miller Centre (Palliative Care Unit), Health Science Complex (Cardiac Care Unit) and St. Clare's Hospital (Vascular Unit), particularly the wonderful doctors and nurses who provided care for him and support for his family over the last several months. The family will receive visitors at Carnell's Funeral Home, 329 Freshwater Road, on Wednesday, October 11th, 2017 from 7 - 9 p.m. and Thursday, October 12th, 2017 from 2 - 4 p.m. and 7 - 9 p.m. Funeral service will take place on Friday, October 13th, 2017 at 11:00 a.m. from The Carnell Memorial Chapel, 329 Freshwater Road with interment to follow at the Kenmount Road Anglican Cemetery.
