I left on my own terms on Friday June 16, 2023 in the presence of my loving husband Paul, who made good on his wedding vows of 33 years ago to see me through thick and thin to the end. With the assistance of MAID, the cancer that I walked beside for 9 years did not get to choose in the end.
I am going to join my parents, Louie Campbell and Flora Jarvis, my in laws Lindsey and Josephine Glidden, my brothers: Buddy and Richard, my brothers-in-law: Bob Dixon, Brian Mossey, and Malcolm McCarthy, my nephew Christopher, niece Angela and many other loved ones who have gone before me. I leave behind the love of my life, my husband Paul and our fur family, Fergus and Dougal, my siblings and their partners: Danny (Donna), Peter (Kathi), Marie Mossey, Loretta (Steve), Ed (Juanita), Maureen (Alex) Hanley, Donna Dixon, Donald (Sherri) John (Gail), Melvin (Judy),and Paul’s family: Odette, Greg, Lilly (Stephen) Lack, Terry (Mike) Doiron, Timmy (Laurie), Stephen (Athenia), Patty (Stephen), Joy, Mark (Shauna), my Aunt Margaret Leonard and many precious nieces, nephews and cousins.
To my family, friends and coworkers, thank you for being part of the fabric of my life. I leave with wonderful memories, having had a very rich life because of you all. Please be happy!
I am eternally grateful to all those who have done their very best to keep me healthy and alive for as long as possible. And who have done so with so much loving care and compassion for both Paul and I:
The nursing staff at The Moncton Hospital, The Sheldon H Rubin Oncology Centre, The Katherine Wright Breast Health Clinic and Albert House Hospice care, Dr. Paul Goobie, Dr. Mohammed Harb, Dr. Tooraj Shakerinia, Dr. Balisi Bakanisi, Dr. Tom McNally, and Dr. Clare Gillett.
Should you wish to make a donation in my memory, please consider supporting The Friends of the Moncton Hospital Foundation through the NB Ride Against Cancer, a cause that was near and dear to our hearts and for which Paul and I worked every year.
A private service will be held at a future date. Funeral arrangements are in the professional care of Frenette Funeral and Cremation Centre, Moncton (506-858-1900).
This is only one small goodbye after all the wonderful hellos we have had!
