Raymond Maillet

Raymond Maillet, 92, of Saint-Thomas-de-Kent, passed away peacefully
at his residence on August 20, 2020. He was married to Alcida
(Despres) Maillet. Born in Saint-Thomas-de-Kent, he was the son of the
late Amédée Maillet and the late Ozélie (Poirier)
Maillet.
A lobster fisherman for 51 years, as well as a freight handler for the
Canadian Pacific Railway in Saint John, NB for 25 years, Raymond was a
very patient man with many qualities. He loved playing cards, doing
crossword puzzles and telling stories from the good old days. Like his
love for the ocean, he adored his family and friends. Always looking
forward to visits from his grand and great-grandchildren, he enjoyed
life to the fullest and found many hobbies along the way.
He will be sadly missed by his wife of 62 years, Alcida, his three
children: Ginette (Paul) Savoie, Robert (special friend Lynn) and Marc
(Charlene); seven grandchildren: Nathalie (Denis), Michel (Jocelyne),
Josette (Timmy), Nadine (Marc), Nicolas, Julie, Sophie; his four
great-grandchildren: Benjamin, Mason, Megan and Catherine; three
brothers: Yvon (Yvonne), Alonzo (Andréa), André (Yvette);
and many nieces, nephews and friends.
He was predeceased by an infant son, Joseph (1966); a grandson,
Jacques (2004); three brothers: Eric, Jean-Paul, Aubrey; and three
sisters: Germaine, Edmée, Lorraine.
Until we meet again, rest peacefully beautiful soul.
