Peggy (Caron) Ouellette, 69, of Moncton, passed away
unexpectedly on Saturday, December 31, 2022, at her
home.
Wife and best friend of Gérard Ouellette, who
passed away in March 2022. They were each other’s soulmates,
and life was not the same without him. She also lost her beloved
sister Jean in January 2022. Grief is a heavy burden, especially for
someone with such a big heart.
Mom to Courtney (Glen) Julie (Jean-Francois) and
Kelly (Lance), she was always there to support and
encourage them, and show unconditional love. It was a mystery how
Peggy remained 42 even when her eldest daughter passed her in
age… She kept informed on what was happening in the world,
loved to watch historical dramas on Netflix, and was faster than the
weather network in announcing storms.
Peggy was very involved in the communities of Clair and
Saint-François-de-Madawaska, where she and
Gérard raised their three girls. Peggy volunteered at the
library, at the church, with majorettes and with the Air Cadets, and
also taught English and was a substitute teacher at the school. She
made her daughters’ majorette and Halloween costumes. When
her youngest daughter started grade 1, Peggy went to university and
completed a bachelor’s degree in education, and later became
a licenced social worker. She served families in the Fort Kent region,
and later became Director of Social Work at Forest Hill Manor. Her
colleagues always appreciated her hard work, dedication and sense of
humour, and her family was very proud of her
accomplishments.
Friends and family members will remember Peggy and
Gérard’s welcoming home, and the many gatherings
and celebrations held there. There was always food, laughter and
someone cheating at cards.
When Peggy and Gérard moved to Moncton, they got
involved in the community again, through the church and as volunteers
at the hospital. Peggy made friends quickly with her broad smile and
approachability. Moving to Moncton also brought them closer to their
grandsons Trey and Gavin, who they got to spend lots of quality time
with as they were growing up. They will miss their
mémère. Peggy will also be missed by her
grandsons Elvis and Léo, who she loved so much and was so
proud of. She also leaves in morning several nephews and nieces, as
well as great nephews and great nieces that she held close to her
heart.
Peggy grew up in Fort Kent, ME in a family of six girls. Her
father (Lévite Caron) passed away when she was 10, and the
sisters all supported each other and their mom Frances through that
difficult time. Her sisters Jane Charette, Lorette Clark, Brenda
Michaud and Jean Voisine have since passed on. She will be missed by
her sister Gail Caron (Mike) of Connecticut, who she called every week
to talk about the good old days. They hoped to see each other in
person soon.
In accordance to her wishes, there will be no visitation and
no funeral service. In lieu of flowers, the family encourages
donations in Peggy’s memory to the charity of your
choice.
Funeral arrangements are in the professional care of Frenette
Funeral and Cremation Centre, Moncton (858-1900).
