    • Obituary:

      Our hearts are sad as we announce the passing of our precious Mom and wife Marie Velma Grant of Union Corner, NB on October 5, 2022. She passed away at home surrounded by her family. She was born at Upper Kent. NB on April 9th, 1935. Daughter of the late James and Velma (Ginson) Demerchant.

      Marie is survived by her husband Cecil of 68 years. Her children Sharon Griffin (Gary), Eleanor Kelly (Tom), Doug (Shawna), and Pamela. Grandchildren Kim, Charles, Melissa, Carrie and Andrew. Step grandchildren Mitchell MacMillan, Melissa MacMillian. Great grandchildren Corbin, Colby, Hudson, Easton, Landon and Keaton.

      Besides her parents Marie was predeceased by a daughter Joyce and son Raymond. Sisters Kay Morris, Audrey Young, Donna Demerchant. Brothers John, Howard, Doug and Infants Vincent and Roy.

      Mom had a big heart and was always ready to lend a helping hand. She loved to garden and preserve what mother nature provided and she shared her goodies with everyone. Her only request was return the bottle if you can. Mom loved to clean, and her house was always neat and tidy. If there is any cleaning in heaven God chose wisely. She was a no-frills lady who loved the simple pleasures of life and had a special love for animals. If a stray came along, it quickly became part of the family, and we all loved her for that. Mom this isn’t goodbye. It is see ya until we meet again.

      A special thank you to Dr. Perley, Extra Mural and Ann Estey mom’s homecare worker) we could never have kept Mom at home without your love and support.

      There will be no public visitation or funeral service, interment will be at St Paul’s Cemetery at a later date.

      If so desired, donations can be made to the NB Extra Mural program, Upper River Valley Cancer Support Group or Carleton County Animal Shelter.

      Arrangements are entrusted to Carleton Funeral home Jacksonville.
