It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Hazel Florence Corey, of Dieppe and formerly of Havelock, on Saturday, April 4, 2026, at The Moncton Hospital.

Hazel worked for many years as a homecare support worker and was also employed at Ultramar in Dieppe. She found great joy tending to her flower garden and had a deep love for travel, especially her cherished trips to Cuba.

She leaves behind her partner of 15 years, Joe; her two daughters: Christine (Sergio) and Tracy; and her three grandchildren: Braxton, Nicolas, and Elise. She will also be deeply missed by her best friends: Stella, Louise, Eugene, and Francine ("Ma"); her brother and sisters (one of her sister, Sandra, she raised as her own daughter); her beloved dog, China Baby; her extended family in Cuba; and her Cuban dogs, Miki and Lolita; as well as by many nieces and nephews.

Hazel was predeceased by her two sisters: Joanne and Linda; her mother-in-law, Lorraine Noël; her grandmother, Elise Richard; a very good friend Emery; and also by Bernard Noël, the father of her children.

In keeping with Hazel’s wishes, there will be no visitation or funeral service. A private scattering of her ashes will take place in Guardalavaca, Cuba.

In memory of Hazel, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society or a charity of the donor’s choice would be greatly appreciated.

Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to the professional care of Frenette Funeral and Cremation Centre, 396 Main Street, Shediac (506-532-3297).
