Grace Goguen Gaudet, 83, of Moncton, passed away on Thursday February 24, 2022 at the Pavillon Landry of Faubourg du Mascaret. Born in Notre-Dame, she was the daughter of the late Léonide and Henriette "Hattie" (Richard) Goguen.

Prior to her retirement, Grace was a ticket agent at Air Canada and was coordinator for Volunteer Services with the Oncology Department at the Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont Hospital.

Nana was a woman you could always depend on for laughter, for comfort, for love and care, for those long warm hugs, for an extra pair of fuzzy socks, a cup of hot tea, and a flashlight in every room.

Her many friends and family will remember her God-given gift for entertaining and whipping up lavish meals from scratch…just because. She loved to shop for bargains, especially her designer clothes. She marveled at foreign cultures and explored the world with the love of her life, Grampy, as well as her "Air Canada girlfriends." Gardening was second nature for her as her greenest of thumbs nurtured dozens of extravagant gardens.

Forever our gem, she will be remembered for the warmth that she left behind, for all of the lives that she has touched and for the laughs that she has shared with all of us.

She is survived by her husband of 58 years, Georges; one son, Denis (Gabrielle O’Brien) of Moncton; her precious granddaughter, Chloë; two brothers: Jean-Paul (Anna) of Moncton, and Marcel of Shediac; as well as her nieces and nephews.

In accordance with her wishes, there will be no visitation and no funeral service. In memory of Grace, a contribution to the Alzheimer Society or to a charity of the donor’s choice would be appreciated. Funeral arrangements are in the professional care of Frenette Funeral and Cremation Centre, Moncton (858-1900).
