Dwayne Austin Lomax of Little Lepreau (presently of Saint John), after a brief illness, went to be with his Lord and Saviour on Thursday April 20, 2017. Born in Little Lepreau, NB, in February 1947 to the late Austin and Mary (Merritt) Lomax, Dwayne was a devoted fiancé, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, uncle and friend. He worked as a fisherman, heavy equipment operator with local 946 Operating Engineers, and as a Paramedic and Transportation Officer for Saint John Ambulance. Dwayne was an associate member of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 69, and a Poppy Campaign faithful supporter.
