Theresa “Hazel” (Paul) Pecor, wife of the late David Pecor of Burlington, Vermont, passed away peacefully with family by her side on Tuesday, March 1, 2022 at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital at the age of 89. Born in Esgenoôpetitj, NB, she was the daughter of the late John “Jack” and Bernice (Augustine) Paul.
She was loved by many and easily made friends wherever she went. She loved bingo, dancing, gardening, family gatherings and good food. Hazel spent many years in the USA mostly in Connecticut, Massachusetts and Vermont, returning to Canada in 2009. Hazel was strong in her faith as a Roman Catholic, loved her family dearly and was proud of them. We are comforted in knowing that she is now reunited with her loved ones who have gone before her and who she missed.
