With deep sorrow, the family of Gérarda "Lyda" Arsenault, 88, of Dieppe and formerly of Notre-Dame, regret to announce her passing on Sunday, October 18, 2020 at the Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont UHC, Moncton. Born in St–Antoine, she was the daughter of the late Philippe and Exelda (Gagnon) Williams.

She is survived by four daughters: Diane Belliveau (Louis) of Sherbrooke, QC, Linda Arsenault (late Brian) of Shediac, Giselle Gaudet (Réginald) and Annette Arsenault (Danny), both of Moncton; two sons: Victor (Claudette) of Irishtown, and Oscar (Suzanne) of Notre-Dame; her two sisters: Régina Gionet (Blaise) of Pickering, ON, and Aldéa Williams (late Emile Lirette) of Moncton; her brother, Adélard (Francine) of Notre-Dame; nine grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren; as well as several nieces and nephews.

She was predeceased by her husband, Alfred (1998); four sisters; Cécile, Lucie, Maria and Angèla; four brothers: Camille, Irènée, Uris, and Gérard; and one grandchild, Mathieu (2011).

For all the good care and comfort provided to her, the family would like to thank the staff of the Residence Oasis where she resided for the past two years, and also the Palliative care personnel of the Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont UHC.

Due to the pandemic, a private graveside service will be celebrated at Notre-Dame-de-Kent cemetery in Notre-Dame. Being the kind hearted person that she was, she would be honored by a contribution in her memory to the charity of your choice. Funeral arrangements are in the professional care of Frenette Funeral and Cremation Centre, Moncton (858-1900).
