PAUL MALENFANT
1932-2019
Paul Wilfred Malenfant, 86, of
Moncton, NB, passed away Monday, 25 March 2019, at Villa du Repos,
Moncton.
Born 12 October 1932, in Dieppe, NB,
Paul was the son of Ferdinand and Annie (Downing)
Malenfant.
In his younger years, he
worked as a mechanic at several garages, then later worked as a
janitor at Ecole Champlain, from which he retired.
Paul was a member of the Royal
Canadian Legion, spending many a Friday night dancing and enjoying a
beer. He was a lifelong bowler, fisherman, and cribbage player, loved
music and singing, and always enjoyed camping with his extended family
at Sandy Beach in Cap-Pelé. Paul was devoted to his family,
and remained friendly with his ex-wife’s family over the
years; as he so perfectly explained it, they were still his
children’s family.
Paul is survived by: daughter
Bernadette (Robert) Read; son Yvon (Soo-yeoun); brother-in-law Clem
Roy (late Jeannette); sisters-in-law Rita (late Joe), Dorice (late
Edgar), and Marie Anne (late Charlie); grandson Jesse (Robyn); and so
many beloved nieces and nephews.
Besides his parents, he was
predeceased by his son Jerome (1964-2016), ex-wife Lorraine Boucher
(2009); three sisters: Geneva (2013), Jeannette (2015), and Anna
(2010); nine brothers: Joe (2009), Ferd (2005), George (1986), John
(1996), Edgar (1988), Bill (2016), Louis (1935), Gerry (1974), and
Charlie (2001).
The family would also like to
express profound gratitude to his dear friends and former neighbours
Andrea and Emile Hebert who visited and looked after Paul, as well as
the caring staff at Villa du Repos.

Burial will be celebrated from Sainte-Thérèse
Roman Catholic Church, Dieppe on Saturday, August
24th, 2019 at 11
