    Rod Lyver says his early days delivering bundles of The Humber Log to his later years teaching young drivers the rules of the road, Don was always there, ready to lend a helping hand or share a word of encouragement.

    Many people in Corner Brook are mourning the loss of a true gentleman, a man who touched numerous lives with his kindness, generosity, and unwavering spirit. Don Hiscock was more than just a familiar face in our community—he was a friend to all who had the privilege of knowing him. Rod Lyver says his early days delivering bundles of The Humber Log to his later years teaching young drivers the rules of the road, Don was always there, ready to lend a helping hand or share a word of encouragement. Lyver says with a painted smile and a heart full of joy, Don brought laughter and excitement to children and adults alike each Christmas as he was known to dress as a clown for the parade. He says Don’s legacy is not just in the memories we share, but in the impact he had on those around him.
