Passed peacefully away after a lengthy battle with cancer, Greg Barrington, on Monday, June 1st, 2009 at the Victoria Hospice in British Columbia, at the young age of 47 years. Predeceased by his mother Lillian and father Walter. Leaving to mourn with treasured memories, his loving daughter and son Alanna and Patrick and his “honorary” daughter Allison in B.C.; his two sisters: Jeanette Miller (Dan) and Mercedes Hibbs (Tasker); his seven brothers: Fabe, Vince (Roxanne), Noel (Sharon), Walter (Patricia), Frank (Rosemary), Paul (Gladys) and Jack, all in St. John’s, NL. Also to mourn are his many nieces, nephews and friends in St. John’s as well as Victoria where he lived for the past 10 years, especially Al, Eugene, Marylou, Sharon and Jen, who gave “their all” during this past year to help Greg and his family during this difficult time; also Greg’s good friend in St. John's, Leslie Hynes. Greg proudly served in the Military for 28 years as a Naval Communicator. He also served overseas during the Gulf Wars. He will be sadly missed by all, as Greg was “one of a kind”, whose unselfish and caring manner “won the hearts of everyone” he met. His wish is to be cremated and returned to Quidi Vidi where he was born. A small gathering - a “Celebration of Life” will be held at the Ward Room C.F.B. Esquimalt, B.C. on Sunday, June 7th, 2009. A memorial service and Mass of Christian Burial will be held in St. John's at a date to be announced. In lieu of flowers, donations gratefully accepted to a charity of one’s choice.
