It is with heart-felt sadness that we announce that
Émerie (Emery) J. LeBlanc, 82, passed away peacefully at
the Moncton Hospital, on Thursday, December 23, 2021. Born in Moncton,
he was the son of Patrice and Yvonne (Gaudet) LeBlanc.
As a youngster, Émerie attended Collège
l’Assomption and Oulton’s Business College. He then worked for a while
in Frobisher Bay before joining the Canadian Army as a member of the
22nd Regiment (Vandoos). He subsequently worked in Moncton for the
Eaton’s Company and ended his career with Superior Propane and the
Irving Oil Company prior to his retirement in 1998.
Émerie was a kind-hearted soul who enjoyed helping
others. His former neighbors on Hows Crescent in Moncton will remember
him as the one who would offer to mow their lawns or blow the snow out
of their driveways, just to be helpful. He will be fondly remembered
by those who knew him as a former member of the Lakeside Golf and
Country Club and, especially, by members of the Moncton Air Force Vets
Club where he frequently did volunteer work and often enjoyed
entertaining people by singing for them with the featured
bands.
He will be sadly missed by his many friends and relatives,
especially by his ten surviving siblings. Sisters:
Thérèse Bourgeault (late Mike), Marie-Anne
Allain (late Laurie), Yvonne Robichaud (late Alonso) Patricia Losier
(Alfred), Lorraine LeBlanc, Stella Lipton (Cy) and Louise Chabassol
(Harold); and brothers: Normand (Yvette), Leonard (Simone) and Wilfred
(Gloria).
Besides his parents, Émerie was predeceased by his
loving wife Marilyn (Bell) LeBlanc, sister Jeanne Gaudet
(Albénie) and brothers Yvon (Françoise) and
Robert (Murielle).
Due to the pandemic restrictions, there will be no public
visitations and a private celebration of life will be held at a later
date.
Arrangements, including cremation, have been entrusted to
Tuttle Brothers & Riverview Funeral Home, 214 Pine Glen Rd.
Riverview, NB (506) 857-9544. Online personal condolences may be
