Andrew Burpee Jones
1950-2020
With broken hearts the family of Andrew (Andy) Burpee Jones announces
his passing on Saturday, August 8, 2020 at the Dr. Everett Chalmers
Hospital surrounded by his immediate family. Andy was born in Burtts
Corner, NB on October 19, 1950 to Freda (Gallagher) Jones and the late
Burpee Jones.
He is survived by his devoted wife, Joyce (Ingraham) Jones; his loving
children, Alex and Andrea Jones; his cherished granddaughters, Jordan
and Caitlin Jones; his dear mother Freda; three caring sisters, Wanda
Jones (Richard Pederson), Susan Pugh and Sherry Jones (Tony Dunphy)
and several nieces, nephews and cousins.
In addition to his father, Andy was predeceased by two bothers, Dwayne
and Dwight and a sister Lorraine.
Andy retired from the Facilities Management at the University of New
Brunswick where he was a plumber/pipefitter by trade. Andy enjoyed
his Sunday road trips, the great outdoors, spending time with family,
was an avid sports fan and found great comfort in his music. Despite
his challenges he always displayed a positive and light hearted
attitude. Like his father, after each visit his parting mantra was
“keep your stick on the ice, and a puck in the
truck.”
The family would like to extend sincere gratitude to the staff of the
DECH 4SE and the palliative care unit for the exceptional and
compassionate care he received. Special thanks to Dr. Kolyvas, Dr.
Reiman, Dr. Peter Dickinson and group and Dr. Jones.
A graveside service will be held at the Bear Island Cemetery, 3495
Route 105, Bear Island on Tuesday, August 11 at 1 p.m. with the Rev.
Canon Jon Lownds officiating.
For those who wish to make a donation in Andy’s memory, the
family suggests the Brain Tumor Foundation of Canada or the DECH
palliative care unit (Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital Foundation)
Arrangements by Flewelling Funeral Home, Nackawic, NB.
