Kathleen Christina LeBlanc
Kathleen C. LeBlanc, 86, of Moncton, passed away peacefully
at The Moncton Hospital on Tuesday, February 28, 2017. Born in
Moncton, she was the daughter of the late Hartford and Sarah (Melvin)
Mullin. Kathleen was a loving wife, mother, sister, aunt, friend and
protector – accepting of all.
Kathleen left her formal education at the early age of 12 to
start work for S.B. Gavell Ltd and Maritime Paint. Years
later after getting married and once her first boy Paul was of a
certain age, Kay returned to the workforce, with Eastern Dry Cleaners
& Mitchell Furs, and Reid’s Photography
Centre. Then 11 years after her first son, came her second
boy, Gregory, at which time she committed several years to fulltime
homemaker. Several years later both boys left the nest and
Kay, went back to work until her retirement at The Sally Shop (old
Moncton Mall).
Upon retirement, Kay was a member of the Golden Age Clubs of
Dieppe and Notre-Dame-de-la-Paix. She was a participant of
the CWL at St. Michael’s Parish. Ballroom dancing
became a large part of Kay and Henry’s empty nest activity
calendar and exercise program. Kay enjoyed being a
non-competitive bowler, having memberships at Elmwood, Fairlanes and
Bowlarama in Moncton and Dieppe. Kay got the travel bug in
the 1980’s and 90’s, enjoying several bus
& train tours with friends from different groups she belonged
and flying in an airplane for the first time to Bermuda. Kay
and Henry enjoyed more than 60 years of enjoyment hosting kitchen
parties and listening to country music performed by their many
talented friends and extended families at their cottage getaway with
the kids in Caissie Cape.
Kathleen will be sadly missed by her loving husband of 68
years, Henry LeBlanc; sons, Paul LeBlanc and Gregory LeBlanc (Roger);
several nieces, nephews and extended family members. Kay was the last
surviving member of her immediate family.
In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by brothers
and sisters, Cecil, Wilfred, Ronald, Lloyd, John, Vivian, Alatha, Ida,
Mayme and Eileen.
