Alex’s Obituary
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of Alex Lloyal Chippett, age 71, on September 18, 2024, at the Lionel Kelland Hospice in Grand Falls-Windsor, surrounded by his loving family and his cherished four-legged companions, Jake and Sandy.
Left to mourn his loss, his devoted wife of 46 wonderful years, Beulah Jane (nee Osbourne), his daughter Debbie Curlew (Fred), son Alex “Brud” (Chris), and the light of his life granddaughter Nicole (Griffin). Also survived by his siblings, Nellie Freake, Alfreda (Grant) Wheaton, Sally (Lloyd) Pond, Dan Chippett, sisters in-law Verna Chippett and Donna Chippett along with many nieces, nephews, and friends.
Alex was predeceased by his parents, Myrtis and Thomas Chippett, his parents-in-law, Simon and Sarah Ann Osbourne, his brothers, Allan “Dick,” Bob (Jean), Ben, Dennis, Randy and brother in-law Gilbert Freake.
Born in Campbellton on June 11, 1953, Alex found joy and peace in the great outdoors. Whether it was fishing, hunting, or spending time in the woods, he embraced the beauty of and respected nature throughout his life. Alex’s determination and strength were unwavering as he bravely fought and thrived through a 7-year battle with cancer. He approached his illness, like his entire life, on his own terms, with courage and resilience.
