It is with great sadness that on Thursday, August 12th, 2021, at the Dr. Georges-L. Dumont UHC, passed away peacefully Marcel Roy, also known as Beef.
Marcel was a kind-hearted man. He was a truck driver who always went above and beyond to help those around him, had a passion for auto mechanics, loved driving his ATV, and adored hunting. He had obtained his moose hunting licence for the 2021 season.
Marcel is survived by his mother, Béatrice Roy of Shediac and formerly of Haute-Aboujagane; his two children: Josée Roy (Justin Richard) of Dieppe and Marc Roy of Shediac Cape; his two sisters: Diane Mazerolle (Marcel) of Notre-Dame and Thérèse Ouellette (Roger Bourque) of Shediac Cape; his godson, Kevin Ouellette (Chantal) and their son Miguel of Haute-Aboujagane and Aunt Stella Roy of Saint-John. He is also survived by many cousins and friends.
He was predeceased by his sister at a young age and his father, Albénie Roy (1993).
A big thank you to Dr. Rhéal Boudreau as well as the staff from the palliative care unit for their exceptional care and professionalism during these difficult times.
The family will receive condoléances at Frenette Funeral and Cremation Centre, 396 Main Street, Shediac, on Tuesday, August 17th from 2 pm to 4 pm and from 6 pm to 8 pm. A private chapel service will be held on Wednesday, August 18th for family members only. Masks are highly recommended.
In memory of our beloved Beef, a contribution to the Dr. Léon Richard Oncology Centre or to the Canadian Cancer Society would be greatly appreciated.
