Evelyn Keirstead
Evelyn Keirstead, 88, of Moncton, passed
away peacefully at The Moncton Hospital on Friday, March 31, 2017.
Born in Campbellton, she was the daughter of the late Albert and
Aurora (Durett) Doucette.
Evelyn retired from The Moncton Hospital with over 20 years
of service in the Housekeeping Department, and then went on to provide
full time care to several of her grandchildren. She enjoyed knitting,
crocheting, doing crossword puzzles, cooking, and spending precious
time with her family and friends.
Evelyn will be sadly missed by her children, Brenda Linfield
(Jim) of Saint John, Debbie Vidito and Tracy Sherwood both
of Moncton, David Keirstead (Wendy) of Saint John, Howard Keirstead
(Susan) of Ottawa, ON, Greg Keirstead (Janice) and Jeff
Keirstead (Marlene) both of Moncton; 13 grandchildren and 12 great
grandchildren; sisters Lucy Donovan (late Pat) of Moncton, Ida
MacDonald (late Ben) of Fredericton, Ethel Doucette of Florida, and
Merilda Gray (late Walter) of Campbellton; several nieces, nephews and
extended family.
In addition to her parents, Evelyn was predeceased by her
husband, Ronald V. Keirstead (2001); daughter, Peggy Anne; son-in-law
Russell Sherwood; sisters, Laura Ouellette, Anita Bernier and Viola
Doucette; brothers, Ernest, Robert, Gilbert, Joe, Louis and Randy
Doucette.
In honouring Evelyn’s wishes there will be no
visiting hours or funeral service. A graveside committal service will
be held at Elmwood Cemetery, later in the spring. Arrangements are
under the professional care of Fergusons Funeral Home, 1657 Mountain
Rd. Moncton (858-1995).
In memory of Evelyn, donations to the charity of the
donor’s choice would be appreciated by the
family. Online condolences at
