Edward Prosser
1937-2017
Surrounded by his family, Edward Gordon Prosser,
79, passed away peacefully on Feb 5, 2017 at Moncton City
Hospital.
For 56 years Eddie was the beloved husband of
Marilyn (Hicks) Prosser, the father of three loving and well loved
children in Joanne (Jeff) Conrad, Steven (Wanda) Prosser, and Dawn
(Greg) Geldart, and grandfather to four cherished grandchildren Alex,
Katie, Russ, and Matt. Born and raised in Petitcodiac, he
was predeceased by his parents Ron and Irene Prosser, and sister
Marion (late Herb) Hicks and brother Robert (lateDoreen)
Prosser.
He is survived by siblings Mabel (Art) Smith,
Sandra (Austin) Young, Dian Goddard, and Gerald (Debbie)
Prosser.
Eddie loved to travel and see the country, and spent his
career of many years behind the wheel of a transport truck, both in
Canada and the US. He extended his love of travel into his
personal life where he was an avid camper for many years, making many
memories from summer weekends at Pine Cone campground to winters spent
in Florida and a cross Canada family adventure. He was a
long serving member of the Citation Indians trailer club.
Eddie never traveled far without one of his beloved dogs at his side,
particularly Sam and Quincy who were the pride of his retirement
years.
Eddie was well known in Petitcodiac where he was a
member of the Baptist Church, and spent many an hour with his friends
at the local coffee shop where he was known for giving as good as he
got. He loved nothing more than a good community breakfast
or dinner, and could be found many a weekend enjoying the company of
friends and community.
The family wants to offer thanks to the excellent
caregivers that supported Eddie in his last days, the team from
Vitalaire, the staff at Extra Mural, and the palliative care team at
the Moncton Hospital.
A special thank you to Dr. Nayak who has been a
wonderful support, Doctor, and friend to Eddie not just in his last
days, but over the past 40 years.
