Viola "Vi" McArdle, 91, of Moncton, passed away peacefully at her home on Wednesday April 27, 2022. Born in Pré-d’en-Haut, she was the daughter of the late Vital and Edmée (Melanson) Richard.

She is survived by her two sons: Michael of St-Hubert, QC, and Greg of Moncton; four sisters: Jeannine Caissie (Leo) of Massachusetts, Aline LeBlanc of California, Dorine Gautreau (late Léo) of Saint-Joseph, and Bertille LeBlanc (Steve) of Dieppe; four brothers: Francis (Loretta) of Moncton, Léo-Paul and Élie (Marie-Thérèse), both of Dieppe, and Donald (Andréa) of Memramcook; as well as several nieces and nephews.

She was predeceased by her husband, Edward "Eddie", (2002); and one sister, Marie-Ange, (2019) (late Gérald).

She studied at Oulton Business College, working 7 years at both Assumption Insurance and CFB Moncton (#5) as well as 22 years with the federal government. She attended Christ-Roi Catholic Church and volunteered, most notably 15 years at the Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont University Hospital Centre. She also loved to play the piano, travel and especially enjoyed spending countless hours tending to her flowers and plants around her home. She was, above all, a loving, caring wife and mother with a heart of gold who always thought of others before herself. She will be dearly missed by her two sons, family and friends.

The family wishes to thank all the doctors, nurses and support staff of the Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont University Hospital Centre, the Dr. Léon-Richard Oncology Centre and the Extra-Mural Program Blanche-Bourgeois Unit for the care they provided as well as the Canadian Red Cross for all the at home care accessories.

The family will receive condolences on Tuesday May 10 from 7 to 9 pm only at Frenette Funeral and Cremation Centre, 88 Church Street, Moncton (858-1900). The family respectfully requests that everyone wear a face covering. There will be no funeral service and a private gathering will follow at a later date.

Interment will be in Our Lady of Calvary cemetery, Dieppe. In memory of Viola, a contribution to a charity of your choice would be appreciated.
