Jeremiah Faries
[AMIS Memorial Chapel]
Amis Memorial Chapel announces the passing of Jeremiah Enoch Faries, of 6 Paget Lane, Ord Road, in his 83rd year. Jerry went home to his reward on Monday, May 1st after a courageous battle with progressive dementia. He leaves behind to mourn his loss his beloved wife of 61 years, Caroline, sons Jeremiah M. [Kathleen], Glenn, Tim [Angela], daughters Susanne Myles [Derek] and Deanne DeSilva [Daniel]. Also surviving are grandchildren Stephanie and Alexandra Myles; and Nathaniel, Jordan, Abigail, Charlotte and Patrick Faries. He also leaves behind his brother, Allan DeSilva, as well as a loving church family and cousins, relatives and friends too numerous to mention, in Bermuda, Canada and the US. Jeremiah was born and raised in Bermuda, before marrying and relocating to Canada with his wife, and establishing his career there. He returned home to Bermuda in 1992 and has lived here since that time. Jerry was a man with deep faith in God, a big heart and loving spirit and he has touched many lives in every place that he has lived.
A homegoing service celebrating his life will take place on Saturday morning, May 6th at 11 o’clock at Paget Gospel Chapel, 44 Middle Road, Paget.
Visitation: Relatives and friends may pay their respects on Friday evening only, May 5th from 7:30 – 9:00 p.m. at AMIS Memorial Chapel, 8 Khyber Pass, Warwick.
