It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Mr. Albert T. LeBlanc of Cap-Pelé, on Sunday May 21st 2023, at the age of 94 years old and 4 months, at his home, surrounded by his loving wife and family following a lengthy illness. Born in Portage, NB, he was the son of the late Thaddée LeBlanc and the late Annie LeBlanc (LeBlanc).
From a young age, he left to work in Labrador and the Northwest Territories. He then returned to the Moncton area to work for Modern Construction and the Department of Transportation as highway supervisor until his retirement.
Albert was a strong and proud man that was always ready to help. He enjoyed hunting, was an excellent gardener and passionately followed hockey, especially the Montreal Canadiens. His kindness will be greatly remembered by his family and friends.
He will be sadly missed by his wife of 58 years, Alma LeBlanc (Cormier); his daughter Pierrette LeBlanc Cormier (Gilles Cormier to whom he loved as a son) of Dieppe; his sister-in-law, Lillian Osborne (late Roy) of Cap-Pelé; three grandchildren whom he adored, Kristina, Isabelle, and Xavier, as well as many special nieces, nephews, family, and friends. He was the last surviving member of his immediate family.
Besides his parents, he was predeceased by his siblings: Elizabeth, Adrienne, Julie, Marie, Adrice, Louis and Guy.
We would like to thank Dr. Jules Melanson, the medical and para-medical staff of the extra-mural Shediac unit, as well as Mr. Benoit Landry for their wonderful care. We would also like to thank Albert’s caring friends for their daily support.
