Donna Winnifred Hunnewell
1945-2022
Donna Winnifred Hunnewell passed away suddenly on October 24,
2022 at the Charlotte County Hospital in St. Stephen, NB. Born in St.
George, NB on February 21, 1945, Donna was the youngest daughter of
the late Douglas and Doris Maxwell. A loving wife, mother,
grandmother, sister, and aunt, Donna valued the time she was able to
spend with her family.
She is survived by: her daughter Lindsey Hunnewell and son
Stephen Hunnewell, along with his wife Angela and their daughter
Gabrielle (Gabby) of St. George, NB; her brother Richard (Dick)
Maxwell of Rothesay, NB; her sister Nancy Hart and husband Alan of
Quispamsis, NB; her Sister-in-Law Barbara Maxwell of Burlington, ON;
as well as several nieces, nephews, and cousins. She is predeceased by
her husband, Roger Hunnewell of St. George, NB; her brother Vernon
Maxwell of Burlington, ON; Sister-in-Law Ruth Maxwell of Rothesay, NB;
and her aunt Alice (Pim) Boyd of St. George, NB.
Prior to her retirement, Donna was a florist for more than
three decades in St. George as the owner of Maxwell the Florist. She
loved working with her hands, gardening, and adding her artistic flair
to all of her projects. She enjoyed being outdoors and was heavily
involved with the Girl Guides of Canada organisation as a Leader,
District Commissioner, and Lifetime Member. When she wasn’t
in the flower shop or camping with the Girl Guides, you could usually
find her sharing quality time with her family at the
lake.
Donna was a strong-willed, smart, and compassionate woman. In
recent years, she loved being able to share a laugh with her friends
and family who would visit. Her greatest joy was spending time with
Gabby and she truly cherished being her “Grammie”. The
kindness and love she shared will not be forgotten.
Arrangements are in the care of the St. George Funeral Home
