Obituary for Eric Morton Nowe

Eric  Morton   Nowe
It is with heavy hearts the family announces the sudden passing of Eric Morton Nowe, Centre, who passed away on Friday, November 25, 2016 at home.

Born in Back Centre, he was the son of the late Morton and Kathleen Nowe.

As a young man of 16, he left home to work on The Great Lakes. On his return home, he met the love of his life, Doreen, and together they raised the family that we all know. He devoted his life to the sea and his family.

In his spare time, his love for the outdoors was apparent in his dedication to various organizations such as Lunenburg Rod N’ Gun Club and Lunenburg Wildlife Federation where he held Presidencies in both and Nova Scotia Trappers Association.
He was a member of the Royal Canadian Legion and a life-long member of Grace Lutheran Church, First South.

Upon his retirement with Highliner Seafoods, he enjoyed his days working his hobby farm, spending time at the camp, and enjoying family and friends.

Eric is survived by his daughters, Donna (Daryl) Sampson, Rhodes Corner, Diane Tanner, Lunenburg; sons, Danny (Lynn), Dayspring; Darren (Shauna), Upper LaHave; grandchildren, Jillian, Devyn, Kelsey Lynn, Ryan, Brittany, Sam, Noah, and William; sisters, Joan (Mervyn) Feener; Linda Wentzell, both of Back Centre, Janet (Ray) Jones, Salisbury, NB and a brother, Boyd, Centre and many nieces and nephews.

Eric was predeceased by his loving wife, Doreen, sister, Dorothy and brothers, Morris and Cedric.

Funeral Arrangements are under the direction of the Dana L. Sweeny Funeral Home, 11213 Hwy. # 3, Lunenburg. Memorial service to celebrate Eric’s life will be held, Wednesday at 2:00 p.m. at Grace Lutheran Church, First South, Rev. Rick Pryce, officiating. Interment will be in the Sunny Valley Cemetery, Centre.

In lieu of flowers memorial donations may be made to Grace Lutheran Church or to any other charity.
