Vickey Sue Bell
1952-2019
Vickey Sue Bell, 66, of Dawson Settlement passed away
peacefully on April 13th, 2019 at the Moncton Hospital with her family
by her side.
She was born in Moncton on September 13, 1952 the
daughter of the late Wallace and Margaret (Gabow)
Steeves.
Vickey was very personable and loved being around
people. She and her husband, Lawson, owned and
operated the Dutch Valley Bed & Breakfast in Sus for
several years where Vickey was able to show her hospitality to
everyone that walked through their door. After moving to the
Dawson Settlement area she worked at the Hopewell Rocks for a time and
last worked at KENT Building Supplies as the Marketing
Coordinator. She had a passion for working outdoors in her
flower beds and landscaping; her rock walls and beautiful flowers were
definitely a labour of love. She was a member of the St. Mary’s
Anglican Church. She had a beautiful alto voice and was a
member of the Hillsborough Alumnae Choir and belonged to the music
group Close Harmony who sang at many different functions to help raise
money for several different charities and were well known in the area.
Vickey had a great sense of humour and found her greatest joy in being
with friends and family, especially her 7 siblings. She has
left many fond memories and would want everyone to remember the good
times they shared. She will be remembered for her kindness,
caring and her unique ability to make people feel special.
To live on in the hearts of those we love is not to
die. Her legacy will be with us forever.
She will be deeply missed by her husband and best friend,
Lawson Bell of 33 years; her children, John David McKearin (Brenda) of
Murray, Kentucky and Shannon Lorraine Richardson (Rob) of Moncton; her
step- children, Emily Bell of Toronto, ON and Gordon Bell (Jena) of Ft
McMurray, AB; her five precious grandchildren; sisters, Barbara
Vibbert (James) of Washington State, Gloria Hassinger (George) of
Virginia and Melody McNair (Charles) of Bath; brothers, William
“Bill” Steeves (Sharon) of Mississauga, ON, David Steeves
(Ida) of Albert Mines, Keith Steeves (Gisele) of Stoney Creek and Paul
Steeves (Colleen) of Albert Mines. She will also be missed
by many nieces, nephews and friends.
