Victor Mercer
1940-2020
It is with great sadness that the family of Victor Redstone
Mercer, of Norton, NB, announce his passing on October 7, 2020 at the
Saint John Regional Hospital. Born in Norton on July 30, 1940, he was
a son of the late Charles and Janie Mercer.
Victor was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and
friend, and will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him. He had a
passion for antique cars and was often seen proudly driving his Model
A and Chevy Coupe around the streets of Norton and Sus, to car
shows and parades. He lived for the outdoors and loved hunting,
fishing, biking, and the maple syrup season. He always enjoyed a good
game of cards or darts. He will be remember most for the love he had
for his family.
Victor is survived by his children: Garry Mercer (Treasa) of
Southfield, Steven Mercer of Norton, Gloria Mercer of Sus, Clifford
Mercer (Dianne Savoie) of Southfield, and Tracey Mercer (Marc
Maillet); his grandchildren: Julie Mercer, Lauren Mercer, Mitchell
Mercer, and Brendan Maillet; and his great-grandchildren: Wyatt and
Brooklyn. Victor is also survived by his brothers: Clayton Mercer
(Muriel), and Nelson Mercer (Heather); his sisters: Ida Virtue,

nieces and nephews.

late wife, Shirley May (Mitchell) Mercer; his brothers: Lawrence and
Lester Mercer; his sisters: Mary Tays, Evelyn Hayes, and Angela
Murphy; and his brothers-in-law: John Dunham, Bernard Virtue, Art
