Sending our sincere condolences to Carl, Glenn, Beulah, Rosalyn and all the members of the McGrath family on the passing of Ambrose. The world has lost a very kind and generous man and there is no doubt that he is at peace now as he is reunited with his beloved Nellie in the heavenly kingdom.
Whether it was during the many times we were making deliveries to Mrs. Gen’s store, talking to him during his years working with the Department of Transportation (on some very stormy and miserable winter nights on the Cape Shore road), or when both Ambrose and Nellie would be paying a visit at Meadowbrook Villa in St. Bride”s, Ambrose’s kindness and generosity were always on full display.
During the many election campaigns down through the years, both Ambrose and Nellie were steadfast supporters and a visit to their home was always such a pleasant experience. A wonderful cup of tea and a great chat would make your day.
Ambrose’s family meant everything to him and as you console each other during these difficult days, may you be comforted by the many wonderful and treasured memories that you all have. May his gentle soul Rest In Peace.

Glen, Carl, Beulah and Rosalyn I'm so saddened to hear of the passing of your dad. I thought of when I spent summers in Patrick’s Cove and how I always enjoyed visiting your house as your mom and dad were always so kind to me. Even when I would come home while in the Canadian Forces, I always took a trip out with mom to visit your parents. They were some of the nicest people I have ever met and I will always remember their kindness. Condolences to all the Family and may he R.I.P.

Beulah, Rosalyn, Glenn and Carl. Our hearts are broken to hear of your dad's passing. Ross adored his uncle and aunt so much and never once went to the shore unless he seen him and your mom. They always made me feel at home from that first time I went there. I can't even imagine going up to the shore and not seeing him. I have so many memories now to cherish and I am so happy to have seen him this past weekend. We send our deepest condolences to you all. Hugs and lots of love coming your way from us. Ross, Kim, Brent and Justin

As I sit here and have a drink of Lambs, like Uncle Ambrose and I did just two days ago together….i reflect on many past memories of him and of my visits back home.
To Rosalind, Buelah, Carl, And Glenn, my thoughts are with you….
Your dad and I always shared special moments when I visited throughout the years til recent days. To list all the memories, stories, laughs, cry’s, reflection moments, and just easy times would be endless.
I will always be forever grateful to spend as much time with him as I have over the years and to be there with him for his last living days…..
I will miss the stories from years past, the humour, the drinks, the person he was, and just the time…but he has now gone to join Nellie and my dad and is at peace.
Rest in peace Uncle and I’ll wave passing over tomorrow as we spoke of on Saturday! Love you ALWAYS
