Patrick Leo (Paddy) Phillips, June 13th, 1943 – May 22nd, 2026

We are saddened by Paddy Phillips’ passing at the age of 82. He has gone to join his friend John Curran.

To celebrate the life Paddy lived and in continuing memory of John, Newfoundland International Motorsports Limited will rename the Targa Newfoundland Colliers-Conception Harbour Stage as the Phillips-Curran Stage.

This is done in memory of the two guys, who were best friends and who both spearheaded that stage over 25 years.

John was Mayor of Conception Harbour and Paddy was a huge force in the Colliers community. He served as Mayor, Fire Chief, Targa Stage Commander, fundraiser and Targa party organizer.

In short, they both were, and now have become, community legends. Moreover, Paddy was a best friend to us and of course to Targa Newfoundland.

The Town Council of Colliers extends sincere condolences to the family and friends of the late Patrick “Paddy” Phillips.

Paddy was a dedicated family man and a committed volunteer who gave countless years of service to our community. He proudly served with the Colliers Volunteer Fire Department for many years and also served as Mayor of the Town of Colliers, where he worked tirelessly for the betterment of our town and its residents.

Paddy was also a strong believer in preserving and maintaining the Immaculate Conception Graveyard, volunteering many hours of his time to ensure it was cared for with dignity and respect.

We thank Paddy for his many contributions, his dedication, and his lasting impact on our community. His kindness, leadership, and volunteer spirit will be remembered by all who knew him.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family during this difficult time.

Update for oversized items ( aka bulk garbage)

I have inquired with eastern Regional Service Board regarding residents inquiries about not being able to book appointments via online. They have informed me that online bookings are full. They are still taking appointments over the phone call 709-579-7960. If no answer leave a message stating location, name and phone number for booking an appointment and you will get a call back with an appointment as long as your materials meet guidelines. Again call 709-579-7960
