Betty Forest
1930-2018
With heavy hearts,
the family of Betty Forest, wife of the late George Arthur Forest,
announce her passing on Tuesday, October 23, 2018 at the Saint John
Regional Hospital. Born in Petit Rocher, NB, July 15, 1930, she was a
daughter of the late Arthur and Elmire (Boudreau)
Vienneau.
Apart from being a
wife and mother, Betty will be fondly remembered for making the best
omelettes in Saint John for many years at Sonny’s Soda Bar,
and then for her favourite boss, Glenn Jardine, at Jonabees
Restaurant.
Betty is survived
by three of her children: Susan Boudreau (Rudolphe), Paul Forest
(Diane Durette), and Linda O’Brien (David); daughter-in-law,
Sondra Lewis-Forest; grandchildren: Douglas Boudreau, Rachel Boudreau,
Lisa Forest, and Lynda Forest; great-grandchildren: Mahika, Naomi,
Alex, and Nikki; a sister, Georgette Doiron of Moncton; and many
cherished cousins, nieces, and nephews. Besides her parents and
husband, Betty was predeceased by her son, Gerry Forest;
granddaughter, Tammy Forest; sisters and brother: Lionel Vienneau,
Yolande Doiron, and Fernande Hovey.
The family would
like to extend special thanks to Joan Davis and Sondra Lewis-Forest
for their wonderful care, and a very special thanks to Judy Wilkins,
Betty’s live in caregiver for the love and care she showed
to Betty. Your kindness will never be
forgotten.
Arrangements are under the care of
Brenan’s Funeral Home, 111 Paradise Row, Saint
John (634-7424). Although there will be no visitation,
the family will be at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, 91
Waterloo Street, to greet guests as they arrive, at 11:30 am, prior to
the Mass of Christian Burial being celebrated on Saturday, October 27,
2018 at 12 noon. For those who wish, remembrances to the Cathedral
Restoration and Waterloo Village Revitalization Projects would be
