It is with great sadness that I stumbled across the news of Oscar’s passing. Many a time have I thought of Oscar, and his gas station. I have fond memories of Oscar from both when my father did odd jobs there, and at Wallace’s.
I looked forward to stopping in at the gas station when we visited Sussex after moving to Ontario.
Both of our families are healing now, as my father passed just days after Oscar.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family, and may we all find healing and comfort at this time.

Marlene & Family. Carol & I wish to convey our deepest sympathy on the loss of Oscar. We both grew up in neighborhoods close by the Texaco on Main Street and the ever-present Oscar. Our stories are similar and remembered fondly...Oscar's was a favourite stop on Halloween because, in those days, no one ever gave away a pop but Oscar did...right out of the machine.
My Dad kept an account with Oscar for all the gas used by Clarks Chev/Olds and I can still picture Oscar approaching my brothers and I at the pumps, when we had charged to much gas in a month, with a sympathetic expression on his face telling us that our father had cut us off. We would run our best excuses by him but without effect...no gas for us.
He was a great guy and we will miss him.
Marc & Carol

To the Adair Family my deepest sympathy and condolences on the loss of Oscar. Oscar was a tremendous man. Always smiling. He was so kind. This kindness certainly reflected through Marlene and the entire Adair family. You are all such wonderful people. My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time. As a young “Corner Boy” playing baseball and hockey, with Barry, the Adair house was always so welcoming. Oscar gave me my first job at the Texaco. Pumping gas, attending to Adair’s customers, working with “Monkey” and exploding the odd tire. I was so proud to work at the Texaco and I am so thankful to Oscar. So many nice memories. Oscar supported softball in Sussex and I was honoured to play for Adair’s. Oscar memory will be forever in my heart. I am thinking of you all today and mourn for your loss. With love Blake

Needless to say, one of the best is gone. Oscar was a genuine, caring and humble person. He treated everyone equal and enjoyed the simple life; family, friends and work. Everyone who knew Oscar loved who he was. May Oscar rest in peace and may you find comfort knowing you had chosen one of the finest.

Oscar was a very generous and kind man. His dedication to his business was the finest example of a bygone era where helping people and being of service was most important. Countless stories of Oscar going out of his way at odd hours to rescue a motorist can be told with warm thankfulness still and very often with a big smile. He sponsored many teams and always enjoyed talking and sharing stories with friends. His family was most important to him and are providing proof positive of how love and good parenting, despite lengthy hours at work, can sew the seeds of success and a strong legacy. I will miss his good humour and his friendship. Rest well, old friend and thank you!

To the Adair family and friends.... sorry to learn of Oscar's passing, the communities of Sussex and Sussex Corner were fortunate to have had Oscar as part of them. Having grown up in the neighbourhood near Adair's Texaco I have many fond memories of Oscar (and a few of the other characters that worked there over the years too), Oscar's grin, smile, laugh, and even his strut back into the mechanic's bay! He was a gentleman with a big heart always willing to lend a hand.... RIP Oscar!
