Laura Augusta Steeves, 86,
of Hillsborough , widow of Milton
« Mood » Steeves, went to be with her Lord and
Saviour on September 6th, 2018. She passed away at
the Moncton Hospital with her family by her
side.
Laura was born in Hillsborough on
February 4th, 1932 the daughter of the late John M. and Sarah
A. Steeves. She worked at T.E. Eaton Company in her
earlier years. Later she worked as a custodian at Caledonia
Regional High School where she retired. Her faith was very
important to her, she was a member of
the Hillsborough Baptist Church.
She enjoyed making bread and cookies and spent a lot of
time in the kitchen baking for her family and friends.
She enjoyed being with her family and enjoyed going with her
family on their annual shopping bus trips when she was able.
Laura was always up for a fun time and loved to
laugh. She never shied away from anything whether doing a
skit or just clowning around, she will be remembered for her great
smile. She was glad to have maintained her Independence and
stayed in her own place going to the hospital just last
week. She did not want a lot of tears and sadness as she is
just moving onto the next step and she would say « It is not
goodbye but see you later ». Until we meet
again. « We are confident, I say, and willing
rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the
Lord. » 2 Corinthians 5 vs.8
