A tragic highway accident took the lives of Freda and Norm Gammon on Tuesday, May 8th.  The accident happened on the stretch of Highway 101 near Grosse Coques, and involved a second car, seriously injuring both occupants.  The accident occurred around 9 pm.

Freda and Norm Gammon, both in their 70’s, were well known and well loved in their home community of Clementsvale, where they were actively involved in the vital Clementsvale Garden Club. Their energy and good humor will be greatly missed in the community and surrounding area.
