ELDON WAYNE MOORCROFT
March 25, 1947 – September 18, 2023
It is with deep sadness that the family announces the passing of Eldon Wayne Moorcroft on September 18, 2023 in the comfort of his own home. His passing leaves a huge hole in our hearts and the lives of his family. He was an easy-going man, dedicated to his wife and children. Eldon, better known as “Ed” worked for Gestetner, which took him to many places such as England, Holland, and the Virgin Islands. His love for the RCMP led him to Canada Border Services (CBS) where he was employed for many years until his retirement in 2011. He enjoyed the public and could always make people laugh. He held a position at CBS in the Union and Honor Guard, which he was immensely proud of.
Eldon was born in Woodstock, N.B. on March 25, 1947, to Victor and Mona (Bragdon) Moorcroft.
Ed was a very private person and enjoyed his time spent with his family, hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, 4-wheeling, and puttering around the yard or in his shop. One of his favorite stories involved him fishing on First Eel River with his trusty aluminum boat and motor. Unfortunately, his motor was not so “trusty” and stopped working so he had to bank the boat. He said his only option was to get out and walk through a heavily wooded area to get to a dirt road and find help. This of course was before cellular phones!! He had been walking for hours when he came face-to-face with a black bear. He told the bear that he was too tired to run and kept walking. The bear, just as surprised, took his advice and ran the other way. They both had a story to tell for many years to come.
Eldon has left behind his wife Muriel (Anderson), his son Robbie of Elmwood, NB, his daughter Dawn of Elmwood, NB, and his son Mark (Thida) Fredericton, NB. He will be missed by his grandchildren: Kyle, Alicia, and Emily; along with extended family members and friends.
Eldon was predeceased by his parents and 4 sisters.
By request there will be no visitation or funeral service.
The family would like to express their sincere gratitude for the most recent care he received at 2NE Upper River Valley Hospital (URVH). As well as the ongoing support and care from Oncology Nurses & Doctors at URVH & DECH. The myriad of support offered by E.M.P. and other Doctors at URVH that enabled him to spend his final days in the comfort of his own home.
In Our Hearts
We thought of you with love today
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday
And the days before that, too.
We think of you in silence
We often speak your name.
Now all we have are memories
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake
With which we will never part.
God has you in our keeping.
We have you in our heart.
