Maurice moved to Wawa in 1962 and worked at the Brewer’s Retail until his retirement all while volunteering his time to the community. Maurice’s house always had an open door for all of his kids and their friends. Huge family breakfast’s and suppers are fondly remembered. Being all together was the most important thing to him.

The family would like to send a special thank you to the Drs. Kirby and Cotterill and the entire staff of the hospital and the family health clinic team.
