Doris Roy, formerly of Moncton, passed away peacefully on Monday January 31, 2022 at the Villa du Repos in Moncton, she had just celebrated her 97th birthday. Born in Stafford, CT, she was the daughter of the late Honoré and Yvonne (Bastarache) Surette.

She was a homemaker who loved to cook and take care of her family. Her interests were playing bingo and cards. As her grandchildren would say "she loved to win".

A kind and caring person who never spoke badly of anyone.

She will be sadly missed by her four children: Paul (Barbara Cormier), Rene (Fern), Janice Gaudet (Mike), and Gerald (Linda), all of Moncton; two grandchildren: Jennifer (Tristan Dobson) and Jessica (Jeff Emmerson); four great-grandchildren: Rachel, Ethan, Mackenzie, and Hailey; two sisters: Donalda Léger, and Stella Gallant both of Moncton; two brothers: Léo and Harvey, both living in the United States as well as several nieces and nephews.

She was predeceased by her husband, Ernest (1981); one sister, Aurore; three brothers: Ovila, Désiré, and Edmond.

The family would like to send a special thank you to the staff of Villa du Repos for their compassion and special care.
