Marjorie E. Hitchcock

It is with deep sadness the family of Marjorie Ellen Hitchcock, of Bath formerly of Beechwood, announce her passing on December, 6th, 2022 at the Hotel Dieu St. Joseph Hospital, Perth-Andover, New Brunswick.
Marjorie was born December 17, 1932 at Johnville, NB to Colby & Zelma (Curtis) Swimm.

Marjorie was predeceased by her late husband Graydon Hitchcock (November 1, 1998), her parents and her siblings Reuben, Philip, James, Merle, Beulah, Mary, Elva, Hazel, infant brother Walter, infant sister Ruth.

She is survived by her children Carol, Stephen (Karen), Peggy, Valerie, Stanley (Michelle), William (Julia), Daniel and Hal, twenty grandchildren, forty great grandchildren and six great-great grandchildren, her brother, Earl, sister and best friend Elsie as well as many nieces & nephews and extended family.

Mom was a hard worker all her younger life and was the first one to help any family or friend in their time of need. She was best known for her knitting & crocheting, baking her famous whoopie pies, donuts and breads and her long red fingernails. She enjoyed playing bingo with our Dad and her late daughter in-law Shirley (2004). She loved old country music, gospel music, watching Mrs. Fletcher, The Young & the Restless and playing Yatzee. But most of all she loved spending time with her family near and far.

Marjorie’s family would like to thank the doctors and nurses of the Waterville & Perth Hospital for their loving care of Mom during her final days, and a very special thanks to Dr. Collin Lockhart for his many years of care and kindness to our Mother.

To the palliative care nursing team at the Hotel Dieu St. Joseph Hospital. Thank you. You truly are compassionate, dedicated and caring people. God bless you.

A private family funeral service will be held from the L.R. Giberson Funeral Chapel, 207 Burnham Rd. Florenceville-Bristol. The interment will be held in St. George's Anglican Cemetery, Lake Edward. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Royal Canadian Legion Branch #37 or the War Amps of Canada would be appreciated. www.gibersonfuneraldirectors.ca (506) 392-1115
