Obituary
Please share a memory of Owen to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
DERMODY, Owen Lawrence - Whycocomagh. It is with profound sadness we announce the tragic passing of Owen Lawrence Dermody, age 19, on Saturday, August 8, 2020. Owen was born on April 30, 2001, in Sydney, to parents Adrienne (Campbell) and Wayne Dermody.
Owen was the youngest of three children, raised in a loving home in Whycocomagh with his brother, Cole, and sister, Dionne. He is survived by grandparents, Helen and Bill Campbell, Sheila Dermody, and accompanied by our late grandfather, Michael Dermody; step-siblings, Amber, Justin and Jordan.
Owen graduated Dalbrae Academy in 2019 and received a certificate in pipefitting in June 2020. He lived a quite simple and relaxing yet fulfilling life. Things others may take for granted; Owen cherished every day. He was most happy spending time with family, friends, and his beautiful girlfriend, Maddy Eisenhauer. Owen was always ready for an adventure. Often times you could find him by the campfire in the hammock, under the sunset, with his canine buddy, Miesha and listening to John Prine.
He would always have a random fact to share and could recite his favorite movies word for word. Owen was overly excited this week for his first tattoo, "DERMODY" – that he wore proudly above his heart. From telling jokes to his contagious smile, Owen always brightened the room. He will forever be remembered for his kind and genuine heart.
Cremation has taken place. A gathering for family and friends will be held on Friday, August 14, at 6pm at the family residence, 71 Hwy 252, Whycocomagh. A graveside service will follow the gathering in Stewartdale Cemetery. Memorial donations in Owen's memory may be made to Stewartdale Cemetery. Funeral arrangements are under the direction of Dennis Haverstock Funeral Chapel, Whycocomagh. Words of comfort may be forwarded to the family at: www.haverstocks.com
