Marion Lucille Galbraith
1930-2018
Heaven gained a beautiful angel on Tuesday, November 20, 2018
with the passing of Marion Lucille Galbraith of Upper Salmon Creek NB
at Shannex Thomas Hall, Fredericton, NB. Born in Midlands, NB on March
8, 1930 she was the daughter of the late Ernest and Violet (Drost)
Foss.
Marion loved her family and always had unconditional love and support
which she showed over the years especially after she was widowed at
the age of 43 left to raise her family on her own with six of her
eleven children still in school from grades five to twelve. To say she
was a hard worker would be an understatement and she installed her
work ethic in all of her family. Mom certainly was not a selfish
person who wanted for nothing but gave everything to her family and
will forever be the glue that holds them together. Her many years of
beautiful handiwork will be treasured by her family for years to come
and keep her memory alive. Mom was delighted to have a great
granddaughter named after her, Maev Marion which she affectionately
called «her little M & M». «Nannie
Gitterbug» thoroughly loved all her grandchildren and their
visits brought her great joy and always put a smile on her face.
Survived by sons, Bernard "Jackie" (Anne), Ernie
(Doris) and Kevin; daughters, Carol (Burns), Sheila (Van), Wanda
(Ernie), Violet (George), Angila (John) and Ivy (Billy) and daughter
in law Susan; 17 grandchildren, 26 great grandchildren; 2 great great
grandchildren; brother, Roger Foss; sister Esther Kostick; many
nieces, nephews and cousins. In addition to her parents, Marion was
predeceased by husband, John Galbraith in 1973; sons, David and
Terrance; grandchildren, Daphne and Wesley; daughters in law Brenda
and Karen, brothers, Raymond, Ronald, Gordon, Murray, George, Kenneth,
Earl and Harold; sister Eileen. In keeping with Mom wishes, there will
