Kathleen Arsenault, 71, of Moncton, passed away on Wednesday
October 6, 2021 at the Briarlea Serenity Living. Born in Moncton, she
was the daughter of the late Yvon and Dorina (Richard)
Léger.
A warm and caring person who enjoyed life to the fullest, she
always had a smile on her face. Kathy began her career as a nurse at
the pediatric ward of the Moncton City Hospital, she later worked at
the Georges-Dumont Hospital in the Veterans ward and finishing her
career at the Veterans Health Centre.
Kathy was the heart of her family and she was extremely proud
of her grandsons Alexandre, Zachary, Pascal, and great-grandson
Liam.
Kathy loved softball, bowling, darts, and playing washers.
She was extremely competitive, especially with her sons. She also
enjoyed playing cards with her close friends in her gazebo at the
Horizon Campground. She was also fond of telling jokes and you could
always find her dancing if there was a dance floor.
Her family would like to thank the staff at the Briarlea on
Ryan. She immediately felt at home upon arriving, calling it her
Resort, and received excellent care until her final days. Her sons
would also like to thank the many people who assisted in her
caregiving (transportation to appointments, meals, support) etc.
Especially her sister and best friend Matante-J.
She is survived by her three sons: Marc (Jackie), Yves
(Diane), and Gilles (Nancy); three grandchildren: Alexandre, Zachary,
and Pascal; one great-grandson, Liam; two sisters: Janice Aucoin (late
Albert), and Lina Léger (Claudette); four brothers: Vincent
(Molly), Normand, Bernard, and Daniel (Diane); one half-sister,
Patricia Poirier (late Paul); as well as many nieces and
nephews.
She was predeceased by her husband, Roland
