It is with great sadness the family of Velma Morin announce her passing at the Charlotte County Hospital, St Stephen, NB. on Wednesday February 17, 2021.

She leaves behind four sisters: Rina Swiderski (Bill) of Cold Lake, AB., Therese Trafton (Errol) of Baring Maine, Murielle Smith (Paul) of Calgary, AB., and Vivian McLeod (Ken) of Ledge Road, NB., and several nieces and nephews.
