Conrad Musial

Lieu de naissance : New Waterford, Nouvelle Ecosse, Canada

Lieu de décès : Gardiner Mines, Nouvelle Ecosse, Canada
Date de décès : 3 février 2012

It is with deep sadness that we, the family, announce the passing of Conrad John Musial, 81, of Gardiner Mines, on Friday, Feb. 3, 2012, at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital, Sydney.
Born in New Waterford, he was a son of the late Michael and Bertha (Boutilier) Musial. Conrad worked in Nos. 12,16, and 18 collieries and in 1967 went on to work for M & B Meats.
He also worked at the Cavalier Tavern in New Waterford. He was a member of St. James parish in Gardiner Mines and an honorary member of the Dominion Hawks Club. Dad was an avid fisherman and hunter and loved nothing more than to be up to his hips in the Margaree River. Music was a great part of his life; himself playing the accordion, piano, guitar and boy did he love to dance. Dad's family was his greatest passion and he was always there to help others; a self professed Jack of all trades and master of none.
Surviving are his wife of 62 years, Hazel (Burke); daughters Toni McNeil (Walter), Dominion, Valerie Morrison (Gerry), Reserve; brothers Greg Musial (Anne), Gardiner Mines, Paul Musial (Sue), Antigonish; sisters Bertha MacDonald (Archie), Gardiner Mines, Isabell Musial, Dominion; grandchildren, Lisa McNeil Campbell, Carrie McNeil, Evan Morrison; great-grandchildren Presley, Carter and Gabrielle.
Conrad was predeceased by one son in infancy; brothers Mike and Charlie; sisters Leonora, Rena, and Toni.
Visitation will be held Monday, Feb. 6, from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. at V.J. McGillivray Funeral Home, 380 Smith St., New Waterford. A funeral mass of celebration will take place Tuesday, Feb. 7 at 11 a.m. in St. Eugene's Church, Dominion, with Father Daniel Boudreau officiating. Burial will be in St. James Cemetery, Gardiner Mines with a luncheon to follow at St. Eugene's Hall, Dominion.
Donations in his memory may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Nova Scotia. Online expressions of sympathy may be sent to the family at: www.vjmcgillivray.ca.

    “Dear Aunt Hazel, Toni, Valerie, grandkids and great-grandkids,

    My heart is heavy since hearing of Uncle Conrad's passing. He truly was one-of-a-kind and everyone that knew and loved him will miss him dearly. He was so tough! I know there will be a big hole in your lives. You have a lot of wonderful memories of this great guy. I remember him playing the accordian on the front step, and when I'd be in the yard he'd holler from across the road, "Hello, Lucy!" I was pretty pleased he had a nickname for me. He thought the absolute world of his family and always brought me up to date on everyone's achievements and talents. Very, very proud. I wish I could attend the services but it's just not possible, but I will be there in heart and spirit.

    Take care of each other, and thank you all for taking such good care of Uncle Conrad all these years.

    Love, "Lucy"”

Conrad sitting in his home playing the accordion. When I was a few years older I took accordion lessons but was never as good at it as he was. To this day I remember him with a smile. My deepest sympathies to Hazel and family; my thoughts are with you.”
