Conrad Landry
1938-2022
RICHIBUCTO, NB – It is with great sadness that we
announce the death of Conrad Landry of Richibucto, New Brunswick, who
passed away suddenly at the Moncton Hospital on Saturday, October
29th, 2022 at the age of 83. Born in
Memramcook, he was the son of the late Raymond and Aline (Leblanc)
Landry.
As a young graduate of Université de Moncton,
Conrad moved with his wife to Richibucto from Moncton and immediately
fell in love with his adopted community, especially the river,
spending countless summers navigating its many tributaries with his
powerboat. He loved fishing, travelling the world and mostly speding
time with family and friends. For those who knew him well, he always
loved a good conversation, especially when it involved
politics.
Conrad has a very illustrious career as a community leader
and mentor to many. He began his professional career as an educator,
school administrator and business owner. In 1982, he entered politics
and was elected as the Liberal MLA for the riding of Kent North to
which he continued to service until 1995, when he announced his
retirement. In provincial history, he will be remembered as the first
Solicitor General of New Brunswick in the Government of Frank Mckenna
from 1987-1991. He was a member of the National Parole Board from
1995-2001. He always served his community well; volunteering on many
boards and organisations such as president of the board of director
for Cartier Coop, Commission Industrielle de Kent, Richibucto Marina
and many others over his lifetime.
Conrad leaves to mourn his loving wife of 58 years, Blanche
(née Richard); his two sons, Andre (Michelle Collette) and
Jacques (Josette Richard); as well as his cherished grandchildren,
Eric, Philippe, Gabriel, Alexandre and Sophie.
Conrad will also be sadly missed by his sister, Josanne (Gene
Leger); his two brothers, Daniel (Barbara), Maurice (Ginette); his
brother-in-law, Henri Vienneau; as well as by his many nieces, nephews
and extended family and friends.
Besides his parents, Conrad was predeceased by his sister,
Bertrande and his two brothers, Rodrigue and Robert.
Visitation will be held at Thompson Funeral Home, Richibucto
on Friday, November 18th, 2022 from 1:00 pm to
4:00 pm only. There will be no funeral service.
The family would like to thank the first responders and staff
at the Stella-Maris-de-Kent Hospital and the Moncton Hospital for the
excellent care.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the Kent County Community
Volunteer Action Food Bank would be very appreciated.
Arrangements are in the professional care of Thompson Funeral
Home, Richibucto. (523-4252)
