Blacklock, known as Rae, was born on May 28, 1931, in
Little Shemogue, NB, Canada. He passed away peacefully on August 14,
2024, in Moncton, NB, surrounded by his family. Rae will be remembered
as a kind, generous, and adventurous spirit who brought joy to
everyone he met.
Rae lived a remarkable life, he loved to
travel, his career began in Frobisher bay now known as Iqaluit and
later he spent a notable period in Vietnam before the war. As an
accomplished business owner and entrepreneur, he achieved great
success, but his greatest pride was his family. They were the center
of his world, and he cherished every moment spent with them.
Rae’s love for his family extended to his summers spent at
the family cottage in Murray Corner, a place of many treasured
memories for the whole extended family and many, many visitors over
the decades.

Ewen Blacklock, mother Kathleen Marion Blacklock, brother Robert
Blacklock (Catherine), and sister Marion Vijh (Ray)

Connors (Jeff) and his beloved grandchildren, Lilia and Sawyer; his
brother Thomas Blacklock (Edith) of Pointe Claire QC as well as
several nieces and nephews, and an extended family too numerous to
name, all of whom he held dear.
Rae will be fondly remembered for his
authenticity, sense of fun, and the wisdom, warmth and kindness he
shared with family and friends. He was a true gentleman, his legacy of
love and joy will live on in the hearts of those he
touched.
