Elinor Fowlie Obituary

It is with great sadness that the family of Elinor Jean Fowlie announces her peaceful passing on April 27th, 2025, at the age of 79, with her family by her side. 

Born in Napan, NB she was a daughter of the late John and Vera (nee. Lockerbie) Godfrey.

Besides her parents, Elinor was predeceased by her baby daughter, brother Perley (Rita) Godfrey, and sisters Jessie (Ronnie) Leet and Rhoda (Olin) Chapman.

Jean loved spending time with her family and was very involved in the lives of her 3 grandchildren. She was so proud of each of them and enjoyed hearing about the activities they were involved with each day. She enjoyed gardening, baking, and helping others whenever she could. She supported many charities throughout her life.

The family wishes to thank the staff of the SJRH Palliative Care Unit, The Extra Mural Program and the SCCR for their excellent care over the past few days and months.
