It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of our beloved mother, Bernice O’ Driscoll, aged 69 years. Passed peacefully away Monday, May 28, 2018 at St. Clare’s Mercy Hospital, St. John’s, surrounded by the love of her loving son and close friends. Bernice is now reunited with her loving husband of 36 years, Gordon, her parents Patrick and Mary Dunne, her brothers John (Jackie), Patrick (Paddy) and Edward, parents-in-law Leonard and Annie O’ Driscoll, brother-in-law Aloysius and sister-in-law Carmel Powell and her dear friend Judith O'Driscoll.

Bernice was the postmaster of Bay Bulls post office for over 25 years. Whenever anyone needed a stamp, she always had a few extra quarters to pay for it. No mail was ever returned for insufficient postage. She loved to have a good chat with everyone. Despite having many battles with cancer and several strokes, Bernice always had a great laugh and was thankful for each day “She put her feet to the floor.” Visitation will be held at Ryan’s Funeral Home, Bay Bulls on Thursday, May 31st and Friday, June 1st from 2-9 pm with Mass of Christian Burial to take place from Sts. Peter and Paul RC Church, Bay Bulls on Saturday, June 2nd at 10 am. Interment to follow at Our Lady of Mt. Loretta RC Cemetery, Bay Bulls. Flowers gratefully accepted or donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society or the Heart and Stroke Foundation in her honour.
