It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Burgess Havelock Penny Jr. who passed away Wednesday, Feb. 17, 2016 at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital, Sydney.
Born in Sydney Mines on May 26, 1969, he was the son of Burgess Sr. and the late Alice Penny.
Burgess was a jack of all trades, from mechanics to renovations and construction. He took great pride in the seemingly impossible projects he took on, but with skillful hands he always had beautiful results. He could always be found with his Tims, a smoke and a long-winded war story. Burgess was a wild soul who loved his near and dear greatly.
Burgess is survived by his wife Jennifer Hill; devoted partner Amanda Watson Dominix.; children, Burgess Penny, Alana Penny, Star Penny, Nicolas Watson Penny; stepchildren, Andrew Dominix, Sabin Dominix, Seth Domini; his father Burgess Penny Sr.; biological mother, Patricia Penny; brothers and sisters, Alice and Simon (Chicken) Feit, Jonathan Penny, Russell MacLellan (Nicole Anthony), Brenda McAdam, Kathleen (Nikki) Serroul, Joey Serroul, and Jean Penny; close friends, Mary and Dave Fitzgerald and many nieces and nephews.
Besides his mother Alice Penny, Burgess was predeceased by his biological father Joseph (Noonie) Serroul, brothers, Robert Penny and David MacLellan in infancy and brothers-in-law, Billy McAdam and Danny Dunphy.
Visitation for the late Burgess Penny will be held on Tuesday, Feb. 23, 2016 from 1-4 p.m. in the J.M. Jobes Funeral Home, 635 Main St., Sydney Mines. Burial will take place at a later date.
