1950-2021
Irma Anne Copp, 71, of Forest Dale Home and
formerly of Hillsborough passed away on October 18th, 2021 at
the Forest Dale Home after a struggle with Dementia.
Irma was born in Dawson Settlement on July 8th, 1950 the
daughter of the late Ernest Steeves and Anne (Hopper)
Steeves-Mellish.
Irma was a stay at home mom and her family was her
world. She took the role of wife, mother and grandmother
very seriously and gave it everything she had. Irma was a
kind soul and she cared deeply for all those who were in her
life. Irma’s pride and joy were her children and then her
grandchildren came along and her heart was overflowing with
love. Irma was not only their mom and grandmother but their
best friend and support whenever needed. She was an
amazing cook, known for her rolls and pizza by all
the kids who grew up in the community and had the
privilege of being in Irma’s home. Many of her
children’s friends loved being around Irma as she made everyone feel
so comfortable and was sincere in wanting the best for them
all. She enjoyed quilting and made many quilts for her
family to treasure, she loved bingo, she also had a love of gardening
and would walk around her flower beds dozens of times a day in the
summer. She had a special place in her heart for
animals and this was a real family trait as they all love
animals.
«Your life was
full of loving deeds, forever thoughtful of all our needs.
Today and tomorrow, our whole lives through, we will always love and
cherish you.»
She will be deeply missed by her mother, Anne Mellish
(James) of Moncton; her beloved husband, George «Reid» Copp;

(Terry), and Shane Copp (Melissa Simpson) all of

nephews.
