It is with deep sadness that the family announces the passing of Jeanne Melanson, 76, of Moncton on Tuesday August 8, 2023 at The Moncton Hospital. Born in Moncton, she was the daughter of the late Leslie and Dorothy (Currie) Duplacey.

Prior to her retirement, Jeanne was employed at Midland Courier where she made many lifelong friends. She was a faithful parishioner at St. Bernard’s parish. Jeanne loved to sing along and dance to Paul Anka songs and winter trips to Florida.

She is survived by her daughter, Rachelle Donovan (Leigh) of Quispamsis; three grandchildren: Mary, Adrianna, and Ellie; one brother, John (Susan) of Fredericton; as well as her nieces and nephews.

Besides her parents, she was predeceased by her husband, Paul (2021); and one brother, Jimmy Joe.

The family will receive condolences at Frenette Funeral and Cremation Centre, 88 Church Street, Moncton (506-858-1900) Sunday from 6 to 8 pm only. The funeral mass will be celebrated at St. Bernard’s R.C. Church, 43 Botsford Street, Moncton on Monday August 14 at 11 am. Interment will be at Our Lady of Calvary cemetery in Dieppe. In memory of Jeanne, a contribution to the Friends of The Moncton Hospital Foundation would be greatly appreciated.
