Obituary
Ann Duplessie (Ogilvie), 1948-2022
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Ann Duplessie of Miramichi on July 24, 2022. Born October 31, 1948, in Moncton, NB, Ann was the daughter of the late Ray and Leona (Cormier) Ogilvie, and sister of the late Billy Ogilvie.
Ann is survived by the loves of her life, husband, Edward “Bubs” Duplessie; sons: Chris (Pam), and Todd (Jenn) Duplessie; daughter, Tara (Adam) Yake; and grandchildren: Daryn, Ethan, Drew, Alice, Oliver and Eloise. She leaves many extended family members and close friends to mourn her passing and celebrate her life.
A remarkable woman, Ann was very active and a pillar in the Miramichi community. She was a longstanding valued member of the Miramichi Quilt Guild, holding many positions over the years, and always willing to lend a helpful hand. She was also closely involved in the Girl Guide community, maintaining her role in the organization long after her daughter had finished Brownies. A wonderful person, touching the lives of countless girls and women, Ann was well known and appreciated in Provincial Guiding, receiving many awards such as the Appreciation, Silver and Gold Merit, Long Service and Honorary Life awards. She was the best person to have on a committee; organized, hard working and keeping everyone in line! Her Guiding highlight would be the 2010 trip to Europe with 36 girls and 12 leaders.
In addition to raising her three children and helping to raise six grandchildren, Ann worked with Pam and David Foley for 16 years at Centennial Foods.
