Marie Perry
1943-2016
It is with sadness that the family announces the death of
Marie Frances Perry, age 73, wife of the
late Ronald Perry, of Lower Cambridge, NB, which occurred at the Dr.
Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital, Fredericton, NB, on Sunday,
October 2, 2016. She was born on February 28, 1943,
in Cambridge, NB, the daughter of the late Gerald and Ethel (Black)
Smith.
Marie was the only child of the late Gerald & Ethel
Smith. During her early childhood there were four generations living
in the same farmhouse.
After graduating business college in Fredricton Marie worked
at the Registry Office in the village of Gagetown. On Nov. 4, 1967 she
married Ronnie Perry. In 1971, when their daughter Dawn was born,
Marie began the adventure of being a stay-at-home Mom.
During the Perry family’s time on Colwell Farm
Marie assisted Ronnie with lots of gardening and also canning the
harvests for winter. She enjoyed her flower gardens, rose &
lilac bushes. She was often cooking & baking for family,
friends & the « hay crew ». Her fall tradition
of homemade doughnuts was always a special fondness with the crowd of
duck hunters. She continued her gardening & baking after the
family moved to their first new home in 1991.
Marie enjoyed many handy-crafts, especially quilting. As her
eyesight began to falter she made several baby quilts to have on hand
for gifts for when her younger family members would welcome their
first children. She sang with Strings Alive. In more recent years she
rekindled a keen interest in genealogy. The last several years she
worked on a « short » history of Lower Cambridge,
which she hoped to pass along to family & friends. She was a
member of the First Cambridge Baptist Church.
Marie is survived by her daughter Dawn Perry of Lower
Cambridge, NB; brothers-in-law Robert Perry and his wife Almeda of
Saint John, NB, Chuck Perry and his wife Irene of Keirstead
Mountain, NB; sister-in-law Shirley Doucette and her husband Gilbert
of Sussex, NB; several nieces, nephews and
cousins. She was predeceased by her sister-in-law
Faye Frits and her brother-in-law Stan Frits.
