Gérald Maurice Cormier

It is with sadness that we, the family, announce the passing of Maurice on May 31,2022 at the Sacred Heart Community Health Centre, Cheticamp. Born in St. Joseph du Moine on July 14, 1959 he was the son of the late Emile Cormier and the late Marie Poirier.

A fisherman by trade, Maurice started lobster fishing with his father Emile. Later, he acquired his own boat and continued fishing lobster and crab until his retirement. This was a labour of love for Maurice.

Our family wishes to thank everyone on the medical team of the Sacred Heart Community Health Centre for the excellent care Maurice received on numerous occasions.

We are also very grateful for the taxi services provided by L’Acabie.

  11. Sorry for your loss. You all will be in our thoughts and prayers.

  12. Sincere sympathies to the family; we grew up together; Maurice was two years younger but very strong for his age; we were always helping our fathers; making hay (the old fashion way), splitting firewood, milking cows, harvesting potatoes, or helping with the lobster traps (a la cote). However we always made time to play ball (summer) and hockey (winter). May he rest in peace.
