With great sadness, we announce the passing of Berthe
Cormier, 88, of Moncton and formerly of Saint-Grégoire, on
June 27, 2026 at the Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont UHC. Born in
Saint-Grégoire, she was the daughter of the late Alyre and
Madeleine (Robichaud) Cormier.
Berthe was a graduate from Collège
Notre-Dame-d’Acadie in Moncton and also received a diploma
from Concordia University in medical archives. Berthe then began her
career as a medical archivist at the Montréal Convalescent
Hospital. After retirement, she moved back to
Saint-Grégoire at the family home where she enjoyed walks,
picking berries and many cups of tea.
Berthe leaves behind her sisters: Doris Fewer (late Ted),
Leona LeBlanc (late Gerard), and Carmella, all of Riverview, and
Odette of Moncton; her brother, Normand of Moncton; as well as several
nieces and nephews.
Besides her parents, she was predeceased by one sister,
Anita; and three brothers: Adélard (Albertine), Emile
(Maria) and Laurie (Irene).
We wish to thank the staff at the orthopaedic department 4E
and palliative care units for the excellent care Berthe
received.
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 Friday July 3 at 11 am. Visiting
hours are Friday from 10 am until time of funeral. Interment will be
at Saint-Antoine parish cemetery. In memory of Berthe, a contribution
to the Parkinson Society or a charity of the donor’s choice
would be appreciated.
