It is with deep sorrow that the family announces the passing of our brother Gerald "Gerry" Richard, 71, on August 24, 2021, born in Moncton, to the late Emery J. Richard and the late Corinne McDonald.

He is survived by his sister, Annette Tweedie (Ed) of Moncton; his brothers: Rod Richard (Jennifer) of Rexton, Ivan Richard (Diane) of Five Islands, N.S., and Ronald Richard, of Moncton; his nephew, Ryan Richard of Saint John; his nieces: Tami Richard (Scott) and their daughter Michaela, of Halifax, N.S., Jillian Snider (James) and their sons Noah and Luke, of Halifax, N.S., and Jill Richard of St-Antoine.

Beside his parents, he was predeceased by nephew, Stéphane Richard.

He will be deeply missed by his close friends at Sandy Beach where he looked forward to spend his summers. Our thanks go to them for their compassion and support through his illness. It was much appreciated by us. He considered you all his family.

Our thanks go out also to his doctors and nurses in oncology for their excellent care.

Family and friends are invited for a gathering at Frenette Funeral and Cremation Centre, 88 Church Street, Moncton (858-1900) for a meet and greet on Saturday August 28 between 2 and 4 pm following by a sharing of memories at 4 pm.
