2019-2019
With much sadness we announce the passing of Gerry Leach of
Fredericton, NB, on Thursday, November 21st, 2019 at Hospice House in
Fredericton NB. Born on December 29th, 1937 in Saint John, NB, he was
the son of the late James and Edna (Snow) Leach.
Gerry Leach was a kind and humble man, a loving husband, a
wonderful father and grandfather, and a great friend to so
many. He is best remembered as a social fellow; he loved to
garden and cook and he took great pride in his yard and dinner
parties. Gerry cared about his community. He was active for years with
Oromocto Pioneer Days, local politics, and served for 20 years with
the RCMP auxiliary police.
Gerry will be forever loved and missed by his wife of 62
years, Lois (nee Carr), daughters Lori Leach (Jeff Carter) of Harvey
Station NB, and Traci Hainse (Lieutenant General Marquis Hainse
[Ret’d] ) of Ottawa ON; grandsons Benjamin Hainse (Audrey
Murphy-Faucher) of Quebec City PQ, Anthony Hainse (Miona
Milutinov) of London ON, and Alex Hainse of Ottawa
ON; sisters June (George Titus) and Mildred (Norman Coyle)
both of Saint John NB; bothers Jack (Alice) of Ottawa ON and Ronnie
(Sandra) of Saint John NB ; various cousins, nieces and nephews; and
dear friends Al Everett, Allison Mockler, and Paul
Schippel.
Gerry was preceded by brothers James Leach and Frank Leach
both of Saint John, and dear friends Bill Duffie of Oromocto and
Clifford Walton of Lincoln, who preceded him.
A visitation will be held at Oromocto Funeral Home on Sunday,
November 24th, 2019 from 2pm to 4pm and from 7pm to 9pm. A memorial
mass will be held at St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church on Monday,
