Arnold McCarthy 1940-2010
Surrounded by his loving family, Arnold Joseph McCarthy, Grand Falls, NB, passed away peacefully at Hotel-Dieu of St. Joseph Hospital, Perth-Andover on Sunday, June 13, 2010, at the age of 69. He bravely fought his battle with cancer with dignity. Born at Grand Falls, NB on October 20, 1940, he was the beloved son of the late Leoma and Helen (McGrath) McCarthy.
Arnold was a farmer, and a school bus driver in the Grand Falls area for 32 years. However, he had to quit driving school bus 10 years ago when he was struck with a severe case of rheumatoid arthritis. He had a great rapport with the young people and missed being with them and his fellow bus drivers.

(Laurie-Ann Patoine), Quebec City; Troy, Toronto; Todd (Marlene), Perth-Andover; Rodney (Debbie), Grand Falls Portage; Tony, Grand Falls Portage; and Jody, Toronto; and their mother Ann McCarthy, Grand Falls Portage.

Besides his parents, he was predeceased by many uncles and aunts.
