Snow
Feb 11, 1943 — Jul 1, 2026
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of a beloved husband, father and grandfather. On July 1, 2026 Melvin Harvey Snow passed peacefully away at his home in Lewisporte after a long and courageous battle with cancer.
Leaving to mourn with many treasured memories are his devoted wife of 63 years Judy. His children and grandchildren who will miss him more than words can ever express. Kathy, Jeff, Stephen, Samuel, Cindy, Kayla, Emma, Joshua, Seamus, Harry, Dawn, Maia, Nathan, Harvey Jr. as well as a large circle of family and friends.
Harvey was predeceased by his parents Barbara and Richard Snow, brothers Jack and Clarence. Son in law Mike.
Harvey spent his lifetime of giving to others, sharing whatever he had to make life better for those around him.
Harvey started as a mechanic and received his diploma at the District vocational School in Lewisporte. He had many careers over his lifetime, whether delivering oil or operating a snow plow he did so with hard work and dedication.
He was there to lend a helping hand and could always be found sharing loaves of his homemade bread with whoever needed it most.
His passion was his family and taking care of each and every member who he truly loved and cherished.
The family would like to extend a special thank you to Dr. Christopher Dicks and Lori at the Gander Medical Clinic for taking such wonderful care of Harvey during his illness, also to Dr. Joanne Hickey for giving him the extra care and attention he needed during his cancer journey. We will forever be grateful.
As per Harvey's request Visitation and Funeral Service are to remain private for his children and grandchildren only.
As expressions of sympathy and in lieu of flowers, donations to the Dr. H. Bliss Murphy Cancer Center would be gratefully accepted.
Funeral arrangements are entrusted to Gordon Woolfrey Funeral Home, 262 Main Street, Lewisporte, NL.
