Obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of an extraordinary, heroic individual whose existence has changed the world of so many for the better. Jody Mason – eternal optimist; master selfie taker and perpetual winner of the best smile – passed peacefully away in the arms of his soul mate and wife, Cavell , on August 17, 2017 after a long and courageous battle with cancer. Age 39 years. Predeceased by his loving parents: B. Joseph Mason (Jr) and Rosalind Mason (nee LeDrew). Leaving to mourn with treasured memories: his loving wife Cavell (nee Smith); sister Jolyn (Myron); aunt Dallas Hewitt (Richard); great-aunt Daphne Earle; cousins near and far; his brother by choice Dave Jeans and his partner, Katrina Roberts as well as special friends Keith and Cathy Kelly (and the entire Kelly clan); step-mother Anne Mason (and step family in North Carolina); his brave YACC family from all across Canada and a legion of friends. The man, the myth, the legend is resting at Carnell’s Funeral Home, 329 Freshwater Rd, St. John’s with visitation on Sunday, August 20th and Monday, August 21st from 1PM – 4PM and 7PM – 9PM. A celebration of his inspirational life will be held on Tuesday, August 22nd at 1PM at the Chapel at Carnell’s with a reception to follow.

Jolyn,
Our deepest sympathy for your loss. We are sorry we can not be there in person, but know we are thinking of you and your family at this difficult time. We wish you peace to bring you some comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your heart.
My deepest sympatny to all of Jody’s family and friends. We first met when I joined the St. John’s Board of Trade and we both later spent time on the Ambassador’s Committee. We had a membership blitz in the Fall and I was part of Team Superhero with Jody, before he was diagonised, just goes to show that he has always been one, not just in the face of adversity! I am out of town and so sorry I will not get to pay my repsects but rest assured, my thoughts, prayers and humour are with Jody.
Our deepest sympathy to all of Jody’s family and friends. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Cavell, Jolyn and Jody’s extended family and friends. Jody was an inspiration to everyone he touched and he is now flying high with the Angels! May he RIP!
