Passed peacefully away on November 12, 2026 surrounded by his loving family at the Dr. G.B. Cross Memorial Hospital, Clarenville, Winston Wilbert Wiseman, aged 84 years old from Musgravetown.

Winst, as he was commonly known by, loved the outdoors and enjoyed fishing, hunting and his vegetable garden. He enjoyed volunteering at the local marina for many years. A stray duck, who lost its way and made the marina it’s temporary home, was given the name “Winnie” after Winst who had befriended the duck. One of his favourite pastimes was socializing with his friends, Garland and Barry at Garland’s workshop and sawmill, helping out with anything and everything that was being worked on that day. He was a “go-to” in the community as he was well known to be able to fix just about anything.

Left with fond and loving memories are his wife of 63 years Norma (Rowsell), his two daughters Arlene (Brad), Tamara (Ian). Three grandsons Travis (Brittany), Gregory, Daniel (Atlanta). Three great-grandchildren Flora, Violet and Evander. Brothers, Bruce (Ruby), Glen (Barb), sisters Bonnie, Ena (Aub) and Linda (Graham). Brothers-in-law, Keith (Beth) and Alvin. A wide range of nieces, nephews and extended family and friends.

Predeceased by his parents Gordon and Evelyn Wiseman, father and mother-in-law, Norman and Lillian Rowsell. Sisters Florence and Shirley. Brother Wilfred.

An extra special thank you to Dr. Zarah for all her exceptional kindness, care and compassion shown to him and his family.
