Marion Frances “Mern” Armstrong
1930-2017
It is with deep sadness that the family of Marion
Frances “Mern” Armstrong announces her passing,
which occurred at Shannex, Embassy Hall on Tuesday, October 31, 2017
at the age of 87. Born in Saint John on February 25, 1930, she was a
daughter of the late William and Mildred (Beatty)
Thompson.
Mern was a wonderful mother, grandmother and
great-grandmother. She enjoyed bowling, playing cards, gardening,
sewing and knitting. She also enjoyed her cottage where she liked to
entertain family and friends. If you were at her house or cottage near
dinner time, she wouldn’t let you leave – one of
her favourite sayings was “what’s another potato in the
pot?”
She will be missed by her loving husband of 68 years, Willard
Armstrong; her three children, Paul (Janet) of Nova Scotia, Mark
(Karen) and Susan Armstrong-Best (Peter) of Rothesay; seven
grandchildren, Craig (Toni) and Kristin, Zachary (Nicole) and
Jennifer, Natalie, Colin and Curtis; two great grandchildren, Cecelia
and Carter; her brother, Roy; sisters, Carol Dallon, Elva Steele
(Joe), Norma Dunn (Arthur) all of Saint John; as well as many nieces
and nephews. In addition to her parents, Mern was predeceased by three
brothers, Thomas, Arthur and Murray; and one sister,
Ada.
Resting at Brenan’s Funeral
Home, 111 Paradise Row, Saint John, NB (634-7424) with
visitation on Sunday, November 19, 2017 from 2-8 pm. A Celebration of
Mern’s life will be held on Monday, November 20, 2017 at
11:00 am from Church of Christ the King, 2000 Loch Lomond Road.
Interment will take place at Ocean View Memorial Gardens. In lieu of
