Mark Barnabas Hynes

Hynes, Mark Barnabas, 66, passed away peacefully on November 18, 2021 in his home in Toronto, Ontario after a brief battle with pancreatic cancer.

Born in Port au Port, Newfoundland on August 7, 1955 to a large family, Mark made Toronto his home in the mid 80s, where he met the love of his life Martha Gould.  Together they shared many happy years until Martha’s untimely passing in July 2020.

Predeceased by his wife Martha, father Joseph L Hynes, mother Gertrude Hynes (nee Delouche), brothers Percy Delouche and Wilfred Hynes, Mark is survived by his stepsons Steven, Kevin and Jason Gould, sisters Theresa, Isobel Kendell, Minnie (Larry) Gaudet, Kathleen (Ernest) Goudin, Florence Kendell, Gloria (Andy) McCarthy, niece Amanda and great niece Isabelle, and a very large extended family of nieces and nephews.

Mark was a kind and gentle soul, who deeply valued hard work, loved the outdoors and his quiet life with Martha.  He will be dearly missed.

At Mark’s request, no funeral or memorial service will be held. Cremation has taken place, interment to follow at Highland Memorial Gardens.
