It's with great sadness that we must announce the passing of Edward Gerald LeBlanc, on Sunday, August 14, 2016 at the Shannex Nursing Home. Born in Saint John, NB on July 14, 1927, he was the son of the late James and Melina LeBlanc.
Edward was a long time employee for LaBatt's Brewery. He was well known around work as Pappa Smurf and Steady Eddie. You could always see him flying around the west side on his little blue scooter at least twice a day. He spent many days with his buddies at McAllister place food court and the lower west side Tim Horton. A special thanks to his buddies at Tim Hortons for always looking after him. He would always tell stories about flying planes which was his passion in his younger days as a pilot.
Edward will be lovingly remembered by his two sons, James LeBlanc (Michelle), Danny LeBlanc (Shyanne), his three daughters, Mangella Green (Stephen), Doreen Belyea,Tammy Gallant (Cory), his 11 grandchildren, Michael, Justin, Jessica, Mark, Mitchel, Bradley, Hannah, Chris, Greg, Matthew, Rebecca and his six great grandchildren as well as many nieces and nephews. In addition to his parents he was predeceased by his brothers, Leon, Ernie, Max , Francis , Stanley and his sister Lena.
Arrangements are under the care of Castle Funeral Home, 309 Lancaster Ave, Saint John (634-1701). Visitation will be held on Monday August 15, 2016 from 6:00pm - 8:00pm. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated from St. Rose Lima Church on Tuesday August 16, 2016 at 2:00pm. Interment will take place in Holy Cross Cemetery following funeral. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to The Heart and Stoke Foundation or to a charity of the donor's choice. Online condolences can be made at www.castlefh.com.
