It is with saddened hearts we announce the passing of Gregory Francis O'Connor, 81, of New Waterford, on May 28, 2014, at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital, Sydney.
Born in New Waterford, he was a son of the late Wilmot O'Connor, who died in a mining accident when Greg was five years old, and Lucy MacDonald.
Greg was a draftsman with Devco for over 30 years. He enjoyed a good round of golf with his buddies, Friday nights at the French Club with his friends and always loved when the family was all together.
Surviving are his wife Marg O'Connor; son Wilmot 'Bill' (Lynn) O'Connor, Halifax; sister Lynda (Eddy) Steiger, River Ryan; grandson Ryan Gregory O'Connor; several nieces and nephews, all of whom he loved dearly, especially his grandson.
Besides his parents, Greg was predeceased by a brother Paul MacDonald and stepfather Eddy MacDonald.
As per Greg's wishes, there will be no visitation or funeral service. Cremation has taken place under the care and direction of V.J. McGillivray Funeral Home, 380 Smith St., New Waterford.
Online expressions of sympathy may be sent to the family at www.vjmcgillivray.ca.
We recently came across something he wrote in his journal: 'People you love don't really die'.
We will miss you until the end of our days.
