It is with sadness that we announce the passing of our mother Anita Bourgeois at the age of 95 years, on December 27, 2025.  Born in Saint-Paul-de-Kent, she was the daughter of the late Edmond and Lina (Dionne) Cormier.  She lived her married life in Dieppe, and moved to the Oasis Residence in 2019.

She worked at Marven’s Biscuits and in the kitchen of École Amirault.  Anita loved to travel, shop, socialize, and her trips with friends to the Casino.

Anita is survived by her sons: Roger (Angela), Louis (Nicole), Daniel (Lucille), all from Dieppe, and her daughter Diane Ritchie, from Rothesay; her siblings: Oscar (Lorette) of Dieppe and Phyllis (Leandre) Maillet of Massachusetts; her grandchildren: Natalie, Julie, Julien, Sophie, Matthew, and Kalynn; as well as her great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews.

She was predeceased by her husband, Armand (2005); her siblings: Dorice (Eric), Émilie (Leonard), Yvonne (Clovis), Sr. Florence ndsc, Sr. Jeannine ndsc, Sr. Stella ndsc, Yvon (Dorice), Adelard (Eloudie), and Henri (Clara).

The family would like to say a special thank you to the staff at Oasis, for all their compassion and wonderful care of our mother.  We would also like to thank the staff, nurses and doctors at the Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont UHC, as they kept our mother comfortable in her last days.

The family will receive condolences at Frenette Funeral and Cremation Centre, 88 Church Street, Moncton (506-858-1900) where the funeral service will be celebrated on Thursday January 8 at 4 pm. Visiting hours are Thursday from 2 pm until time of funeral. Interment will be in Saint-Anselme parish cemetery. In memory of Anita, a donation to CHU Dumont Foundation would be appreciated.
