Passed peacefully away at Lions Manor Nursing Home, Placentia
on Sunday, May 30, 2026, Vince Power, aged 72 years. He was
surrounded by his loving family - his wife Bernie, son Dale, grandson
Zachary, and brother Paul.
He is survived by his brothers and sisters of the Power
family, as well as many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
Predeceased by his parents Augustine and Kathleen (nee Leonard) Power,
and parents-in-law John and Nora Coffey.
Vince was born July 9, 1953 in Isle Aux Valen, his roots
which he cherished. He spent most of his life in Placentia, working a
long career in service, raising a family, and enjoying
life’s special moments. While he took great pride in all he
accomplished at home, at work, and at his cabin, there was nothing
more special to him than being a grandfather. This brought
him much light, joy and peace.
Vince’s demeanor and kindness shined through into
his work. He always showed great respect while driving the
oil truck and hauling the oil hose, keeping many people in our
communities warm and comfortable for 53 years! He never
turned away a person, a family, or a business in need.
Special thanks to the staff at the Placentia Health Centre
and Lions Manor Nursing Home Unit 3. Also thank you to Dr.
Rob Power who has been there for us during Vince’s final
journey home.
