It is with heavy
hearts that the family of Joanne Patricia Hunter announce her passing
at her home on Sunday, December 25, 2022. Born in Saint John, NB she
was the daughter of the late Christine Pond and Patrick
McGivney.
She was the wife of
the late Macdonald (Mac) Hunter (2022). She is survived by her
children: Anita (Jerome) MacDonald of Townsend Mass, Clay (Aline
Arsenault) of Haute-Aboujagane, Lisa (Reginald) Clements of Shediac;
eight grandchildren: Lauchie, Amanda, Cecelie, Isabelle, Benoit,
Samantha, Thomasina, and Myles; 14 great-grandchildren: Sadie, Chloe,
Hailey, Dominic, Quinn, Charlie, William, Philippe, Amélie,
Treyson, Kaiden, Kaysie, Tyson, and Aliyah.
She also leaves to
mourn her five siblings: Noreen (Kenneth) Moir, Carole Ouderkirk, Dale
Ross, Gary Ross, Bernard (Gail) Ross along with many nieces and
nephews that all held a place in her heart, her caregiver and friend
Venicca Cassell who brought such joy into her life.
Joanne was known for
her many talents, be it making ice show costumes or setting the points
on a motorcycle. There was nothing she couldn’t do (and if
there was, you best not be the one to tell her). Artistic and
talented, she always had a craft on the go and passed down that
knowledge to anyone that was willing to learn. Joanne always
saw the good in people and made many lifelong friends along the
way.
Never one to pass up
an adventure, her and Mac enjoyed their retirement years to the
fullest: climbing Mount Carleton, taking in Daytona bike week, daily
drives to the wharf or discovering new roads. It
didn’t matter where they were going as long as they were
going together. It brings us great comfort in knowing that they have
reunited once again.
Besides her husband of
67 years, she was predeceased by daughter Amanda Hunter (1979), son
Cleve Hunter (2012), grand-daughter Ashley Hunter (2017), and
great-granddaughter MacKenzie Doucet (2022)
Special Thank you to
the Trinity United Church U.C.W group for their numerous phone calls
and visits to Joanne.
Joanne will be
reunited with her husband Mac at Frenette Columbarium at a later
date.
In memory of Joanne, a
contribution to a charity of the donor’s choice would be
appreciated.
Cremation and funeral
arrangements are under the direction of Frenette Funeral and Cremation
Centre, Shediac (532-3297).
