Marie enjoyed spending her days at the Pit Pond, feeding Chewie, her pet beaver. She was a kind and giving soul, always lending a helping hand. She worked hard her entire life, eventually retiring from her position as a postal worker at Canada Post. She was a devoted mother and grandmother who loved her grandchildren dearly Marie loved nature and animals, and was particularly fond of her dog, Muffin.

Marie is survived by her son Tony (Ashley) Somers, Springhill; her grandchildren, Tevin, Ethan (Abbie), and Jacob; her sister, Betty (Jack) Crowe of Oromocto, NB; a brother-in-law, James Gouchie, as well as several nieces and nephews.
