Emily Gosselin
1940-2018
At the age of 77, Emily Gosselin passed away peacefully at
the Georges-L Dumont Hospital on Friday, Oct 26, 2018, with family by
her side. Born in Trudel N.B., she was the daughter of the
late Anna and Raoul Gosselin
Emily was a very independent and strong willed
woman who loved the outdoors whether it was fishing and hunting in her
youth, picking wild strawberries for making jam or feeding the
squirrels and birds in her later years. She had an amazing
ear for music, could play many different instruments and could be
found at kitchen parties with musician cousins. She enjoyed
playing cribbage and of course her bingo nights with
friends.
She had worked in Saint John for Bathurst
Containers and then came to Moncton to care for her friends’
mother, and then that friend. She was a giving person and
had a big heart for those in need.
Emily will be forever remembered by her sister
Malvina Richard (Saint John), brother Reginald (Montreal), her niece
Anita of Moncton, her nephews Robert, Norman; nieces Emily, Linda and
Dianne, all from Saint John and area, whom she called
« her » kids.
Besides her parents she was predeceased by her four
sisters: Amabelis, Helen, Evangeline, Alma; seven brothers:
Emile, Albert, Francis, Clarence, Arthur, Albanie, and Ernest; her
cherished brother-in-law Bernard Richard and godson Paul
Richard.
