Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Barbara McCarthy Challie 19542021..
Death notice for the town of: Grand-Falls, Province: Nouveau-Brunswick
My condolences 💐 to all friends and family!
We were friends for years after her and Norbert split!
She became very secluded and would not talk to anyone!
I tried phoning, sending E-mails, going to the house and knocking on the door and no reply!
One day we went out to the acreage and saw her vehicle 🚗 decided to go visit and she refused to talk to me, so we left!
Sooooo sorry to hear she is gone, she was a very quiet person and kept to herself!
Wish I could have been able to talk to her before!
Such a sweet lady!
