It is with regret and much love that the family of Elva
Lillian Arbeau announce her passing in Moncton, New Brunswick, on the
26th of July, 2022 She was 85.
Born Elva Lillian Sobey of Chaplin Island Road, New
Brunswick, Canada, she lived a full life surrounded by her family and
a few special friends. No heart was bigger, no spirit for life
stronger, no more generous a spirit existed! If you had to sum up
Elva’s life in a few words, it would be: She cared; always others
before one’s self.
She is predeceased by a 2nd husband,
Lawrence Arbeau of Riverview, N.B., a special love and friend, Ulysse
Arseneault of Dieppe, N.B., and a 1st husband,
Wendell Ritchie Allison, father to the loves of her life, her children
and grandchildren. She is also predeceased by her parents Henry
Charles Sobey of Maple Glen, N.B., and Annie May MacDonald
of Miramichi, N.B., as well as several sisters and
brothers.

beautiful grandchildren and great grandchildren. She is also survived
