It is with immense sadness that we announce the passing of
Viola Marie Daigle, peacefully on April 3, 2026, at the age of 91, at
Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont UHC. Born in Pointe-Sapin, Viola was the beloved
daughter of the late Charles and the late Phoebée (Daigle)
Mazerolle.
Viola was a devoted wife, a loving mother, and a beloved
grandmother and great-grandmother. She was the pilar of her family
— a strong, courageous woman admired by all who knew her. A
trailblazer in her own right, Viola was the first student to earn her
high school diploma from the Pointe-Sapin School through
correspondence courses. She went on to study nursing in Campbellton.
Following her 30-year career, she retired at the emergency department
of the Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital in Fredericton.
She is survived by her beloved husband of 66 years, Yvon; her
three devoted children: Daniel (Ellen), Michelle Daigle (Robb Francis)
and Monique Daigle (André Allain); her six grandchildren:
Mathieu, Julie, Devon, Danielle, Chloé and
Émilie; as well as four great-grandchildren: Logan, Leo,
Sophie and Daphnée. Several nieces, nephews, and other
family members will also keep good memories.
Besides her parents, Viola was predeceased by eight brothers
and sisters: Eva, Charles, Léonard, Raymond, Alyre, Bertha,
Christina and Ernestine.
In accordance with her last wishes, there will be no
visitation or service at the funeral home. A private family ceremony
will be held this summer in Pointe-Sapin, followed by burial at the
local cemetery.
Funeral arrangements are in the professional care of Frenette
Funeral and Cremation Centre, Moncton (506-858-1900).

Her strength and love will forever
remain etched in the hearts of all who knew her.
