E. Jean Hendrickson

1937-2020
We sadly announce the passing of Jean of Kenneth E. Spencer Memorial Nursing Home and formerly of Riverview. She is the daughter of the late Myrtle (Gregan) and Lebaron "Barry" Stubbs.

Jean’s passion was teaching, especially math. She started out at Edith Cavell and 37 years later she retired from Riverview High School. When she entered the nursing home she met up with a lot of her students from over the years and she couldn’t believe how many remembered her. In her younger years she loved to go to the camp and go four wheeling. Jean also loved her bingo nights, I guess it was because it was numbers and math was her specialty.

Jean met her true love, Larry and they were married 43 years. Aside from her parents she was predeceased by Larry (2020).

She is survived by her step children: Loretta, Lance and Paul Hendrickson. She is also survived by their children Chantale and Trevant Hendrickson, Destiny and Tyrell Spencer, Sierra and Drake Hendrickson. Her sisters and brothers-in-law: Marsha, Wanda (John), Greta (Stan) all from Riverview. Also she has a special place in her heart for her cousin Jeannie O’Donnell, Karen McKinley and Glenn Hicks, and Steven and Susan Van Snick.

Jean was predeceased by her husband Larry (2020) and brother-in-law Louis also 2020.

The family and friends would like to THANK the staff and care givers of Spencer’s Nursing Home for all the love and kindness they showed to Jean.

In keeping with Jean’s wishes there is no viewing or service. Arrangements have been entrusted to the care of Cobb’s Funeral Home and Cremation Center, 330 Whitepine Rd., Riverview (869-2007).

Margaret "Peggy" Miller

30 Jul 2020

1932 – 2020
The family of Peggy Miller is very saddened to announce the passing of our dear mother on July 30, 2020. Peggy was born in New Glasgow, NS in 1932 to Evelyn and Orval Tye.

A creative person, Peggy usually had at least one project on the go. It may have been sewing, knitting, crafts, refinishing furniture, gardening or cooking for her family. Her egg salad sandwiches were famous and a necessity for every road trip. On Saturday mornings she could often be found yardsaling, looking for the next great find. One never knew when they would be a recipient of one of her found treasures.

Simple things in life brought Peggy much pleasure. A card game with a daughter, time spent at the cottage, a quick chat with a friend, a bowl of maple walnut ice cream, the first cup of coffee in the morning, enjoying the sunporch and time spent with her furry loved ones.

Peggy had the gift of service and lived by the motto that “you do what you have to do”. She could always be counted on to lend a helping hand. A nurse by training, she was an active member of St. Paul’s United Church and the UCW until health issues restricted her involvement.

Family was the most important thing for Mom. She shared her love, compassion, strength and commitment freely. A sharp wit with a devilish sense of humour has made for many wonderful memories. Thank you Mom.

Peggy is survived by her daughters; Dawn (Paul) and Karen, brother, Henry Tye, and several nieces and nephews.

She is predeceased by the love of her life Rob (Bob to everyone else) and brother Allison Tye.

A private service will be held at the Chapel of Fair Haven Funeral Home at a later date.

Donations in Peggy’s honour may be made to the Friends of the Moncton Hospital Foundation, the SPCA or a charity of the donor’s choice.

Arrangements are entrusted to Fair Haven Funeral Home, 1177 Salisbury Road, Moncton (506) 852-3530. A book of condolences may be signed at www.fairhavenmemorial.ca.
