It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Reginald Brine, 69, of Shemogue, on Tuesday, May 26, 2026, at his residence. Born in Port Elgin, NB, he was the son of the late Normand and Geneva (Cullen) Brine.

Reginald was an avid fisherman who found great peace on the water. A man of exceptional work ethic, he truly loved to work, but his greatest joy came from using his skills to lend a helping hand to anyone in need.

 He leaves behind his wife Linda LeBlanc (42 yrs); his children: Danielle Roy (Patrice) of Petit-Rocher, Tyrone Brine (Patricia) of Grand-Barachois, Samantha Brine of Petit-Cap; his siblings: Roger Brine (Gloria), Linda Richard (Yvon), Richard Brine (Wendy), Cécilia Brine (Jules), Janice Brine (Jocelyn), Joan Brine (Léo), Kevin Brine (Andréa), Veralynn Maillet (Mike), Rodrick Brine (Gail), Gloria Cambridge (Todd); a half-sister Joan Weaven; and also, his two grandchildren: Danick and Mikel.

Besides his parents, Reginald was predeceased by two daughters: Monica and Jenny.

The family will receive condolences at Frenette Funeral and Cremation Centre, 2642 Acadie Road, Cap-Pelé, on Wednesday, June 3, from 2 p.m. until 3:45 p.m. The funeral service will follow at 4 p.m. at Ste-Thérèse-d’Avila Church, Cap-Pelé.
