It is with sadness, the family announces the death of Lorraine Helen Belliveau, age 90, wife of the late Frederick Belliveau, which occurred on Sunday, May 3, 2015, at Bobby’s Hospice, Saint John. She was born on April 28, 1925, in Moncton, NB. Lorraine is survived by her sons Dan Belliveau and his wife Veronica of Hamilton, ON, Tim Belliveau and his wife Doris of Hampton, NB, Paul Belliveau and his wife Lynette of Hampton, NB; grandchildren Brian, Joe, Tim, Alexis, Jennie, Kyle, Jeff; great grandchildren Benjamin, Jordan, Taryn, Zane, Koen, Nora, Brinley, Aiden and Alexander. She was predeceased by her mom, Angie (Legere) Gautreau. Lorraine was born in Moncton and raised at the Family’s homestead at Leger Corner in Dieppe. Lorraine went to convent in Caraqcuet in her early school years and then attended high school at Mount Carmel Academy in Saint John. After school Lorraine began to work as clerical staff for the federal government in Moncton. Although a single child she enjoyed a very close relationship with her cousins and in fact they became lifelong friends. Lorraine had a natural talent as an artist and spent many hours painting, this was a past time she truly enjoyed. Lorraine always thought she would get back to her painting, however life became busy for her once she met her future husband "fast freddy". Mom and Dad were married in 1953 and then were off to Grostenquin France, where "fast freddy" was a jet pilot for the RCAF. They had wonderful friends and times in post WWII Europe. They literally travelled the world. A near fatal accident in France in 1957 left Lorraine with substantial injuries that she would carry with her for the duration of her life. This did not deter Lorraine although there were limitations now with her mobility. They returned to Chatham, New Brunswick, which was their next adventure and in 1959, Lorraine and Fred had their first child Daniel in July 1959, not to be out done, young Timothy felt it was time to make an appearance and in June 1960, Mom and Dad had their second child. This was no small feat to have small children and restricted mobility. Mom was a homemaker and became a full-time Mom. Another move to Cold Lake, Alberta and in 1964 our little big brother Paul was born. There were many more moves and through it all, the constant of having a mother like ours served us well, early in life and throughout our adult life. Mom was a very loving and caring Mother. A child can ask for nothing more. From as early as we can remember Mom always told us that we are to treat all people equal, and to be kind to others, and always try to do your best. She was a devoted mother, friend, and was very proud of her "boys". Mom and Dad’s home was always welcoming and they loved their Grandchildren. Both Mom and Dad encountered health issues later in life. Mom has battled cancer for over 20 years and still kept strong to her faith. The death of her beloved Fred was very difficult for Mom and she missed him dearly. We spent a lot of time with Mom through visits and phone calls. Her neighbours were very good to her knowing her Fred had died and would often stop in and check on her. Although she lived her life privately, she appreciated all that others did for her. Many thanks to Dr. Beth Carson for her home visits and personal care. To the nurses and staff on the family medicine floor at the Health Sciences Centre in Saint John and the wonderful care to our Mom at Bobby’s Hospice on the West Side. She is resting at Reid’s Funeral Home (506-832-5541) 1063 Main Street, Hampton, NB. Mass of Christian Burial, celebrated by Father Kevin Barry will be held on Thursday, May 7, 2015 at 10:00 AM from St. Alphonsus Catholic Church, Hampton.
