Jennie Knowlton
1930-2020
Jennie Knowlton, 89, of Lower Coverdale, passed away
peacefully on January 16th, 2020, with her loving family by her
side.
Jennie was born on June 2nd, 1930, the daughter of the late
Charles and Hilda (Hayne) Sprague.
Jennie worked as a ward clerk at the Moncton Hospital for
25 years until she retirement. She was a member of the
Hillsborough United Church and active in the UCW when she was
able. Jennie had a green thumb and was most content outdoors
gardening or picking berries and greens. Anything
she got from her garden rarely went to waste and she would happily
share with her family and friends. Her greatest treasures
were her grandchildren and her great grandchildren, they were her
pride and joy. She always looked forward to their visits and
loved to spoil them. “The love between a
grandmother and grandchild is forever.” Jennie has now
been reunited with her beloved husband and is in the care of her Lord
and Saviour.
She will be deeply missed by her daughter, Debbie Butland
(Burpee) of West River; her treasured grandchildren: Kim Allen
(Matthew), Heather Gray (Troy), and Shawn Butland (Mary); her precious
great grandchildren: Chad, Kayla, Kyle, Collin, Gracy, and Aydan and
treasured great-great grandchildren, Emma, Jaxson and Cameron; her
sister, Edythe Kennie of Saint John. She will also be missed by
several nieces and nephews and all her extended
family.
Besides her parents she was predeceased by her husband,
Morris; her sister Margaret, and brother, George.
