  • Obituary: Randall Carson Dewar - 55, Truro. It is with broken hearts that we announce the sudden and unexpected passing of Randy "Dewey" Dewar on August 24, 2020 from natural causes. Born in Truro, he was a son of Etta (Staples) Dewar, Truro, and the late Carson Dewar. Randy was a multiple sport athlete and an avid sports fan. Those who knew him would also know that he religiously had to be home in time to watch "Jeopardy". He was a smart, funny, highly respected, kind and humble soul who enjoyed playing and coaching. He will be remembered as a talented hockey player, great Father and friend as well as a well-loved coach to many over the years. Randy played junior hockey for Truro Bearcats of the Northumberland Junior Hockey League as well as senior hockey for Truro- Shubenacadie Colonels of the Nova Scotia Senior Hockey League. Along with his Mom and dear friend, Etta, Randy is survived by his beloved son, Brock Dewar, Greenfield; brothers, Glenn (Susan), St. Andrews, New Brunswick; Bruce (Tracey), Porter's Lake; nephews, Philip and Nicholas; niece, Lisa. Last, but certainly not least, Randy is survived by a far reaching and endless amount of friends, many of them lifelong.
