It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of the late Joseph Craig Webber on Saturday, January 18, 2020 at the Western Memorial Reginal Hospital in Corner Brook at the age of 63 years old. He leaves to mourn with fond and loving memories his wife Justine of 38 years; only daughter Jennifer Trimm (Blair) of Fort McMurray, AB; his two grandchildren Aynslie and Ayden who held a special place in his heart; sisters Brenda Anstey (Ed) Corner Brook, NL, and Gertrude Oakley of St. John’s, NL; brothers: Dave Webber (Judy) Mt.

Pearl, NL; special brother-in-law Francis O’Quinn of St. Andrews, NL along with many cousins, nephews, nieces and close friends and especially their family dog, his loving companion Holly. He will also be sadly missed by many brothers and sisters-in-law who held him dear Lorraine Wight (Scott), Marie Bennett (Raymond), Woodrow Ellsworth (Jessie), Clarence Ellsworth (Vickie), George Ellsworth (Elizabeth), Myra Freimanis (Maris), Pauline Ellsworth (Ken), Curling Ellsworth (Anna) and Mike Ellsworth (Audrey). He was predeceased by his father Frank Webber and mother Marie Webber (nee Dicks), brother George, sisters Barbara Chafe (Brian) and Catherine Tulk, parents-in-law John and Evelyn Ellsworth, sister-in-law Carrie Payne (Ned) and his faithful dog Blackie.
Growing up in his younger years on the family farm he learned to drive his first tractor and it became a passion of his. By the age of 18 he purchased his first tractor. Over the years he worked with many respectable men and women for the city of Corner Brook and quite a number of residents of the Corner Brook and surrounding area. He took pride in what he did and it certainly showed. We will forever be proud of our loving Husband, Father, Grandfather, Son and Brother.
We would like to extend a special thank you to the staff on 4A in Western Memorial in Corner Brook and the staff of 4 North A at the Health Sciences Centre in St. John’s, NL. Their support and care not only exist with the patients but to the family as well.
