It is with deep sorrow and much love that we mourn the passing of Marie Stead of Musgravetown, on May 17th, 2025 at the age of 94 years.
Born on March 25, 1931 in Cape Island, NL., Marie was the beloved daughter of Delilah and John Vincent. She was a devoted mother, Grandmother, Great Grandmother and cherished friend, and a guiding light to all who knew her.

She will be remembered for her kindness, strength, community support, and generosity, and her love of knitting, crosswords, gameshows and a good game of cards, and the countless lives she touched with her warmth and wisdom.
Special thanks to the management and staff at Meadow Creek Retirement Home for the incredible care she received while living there for the past few month.

May 19, 2025 at 10:51 amFond memories of Aunt Rhe as a loving Aunt who went blueberry picking, cooked delicious meals for us when we visited in summers long ago. I remember one time when she slept in a tent with me before she had children. Although it was many years ago God saved the family from a fire and I got to play with my cousins Kirk, Rick and Gail. Always loved by Wendy, and Cheryl.

May 19, 2025 at 11:35 amRick, Gail and Kirk, my thoughts are with you at this sad time. I spent so many enjoyable days at your place, especially when you were young, Rick. (It’s hard for me to think of you as Rick because you were always Ricky then.) I loved your parents and grandparents and was so heartbroken when your dad passed. I can still picture him in that green dump truck. Your mom will surely be missed. She was loved by all. But again your whole family was. Remembering is making me tear up. Bless you all. With love, Lily

May 19, 2025 at 2:12 pmRick, Kirk, Gail and families. Sorry to hear of Marie’s passing, please accept out sincere condolences. I remember her well and always looked forward to seeing her at church whenever we were home. She and your father were great friends of mom and dad as your father worked for years with dad at the Service Station. Unfortunately we will be unable to attend as we are currently in Kelowna BC on vacation, but will be thinking of you.

I was so happy to meet your Mom several years ago when I would spend a few nights in Musgravetown with my dear friend & your relative Jan Winsor. I was always struck by Mom’s desire to keep on learning.,even with her IPad or computer. close by keeping in touch with family. Her love for the Church and Community was very evident in our chats. May precious memories comfort you as you celebrate her life and tell uplifting stories of a long and fulfilling life. Hugs Geri & Ron
