Obituary of Florence Ellen Doucette (Corbin)

Florence Ellen (Corbin) Doucette passed away on May 6, 2022 at her home, with her family by her side. Born on the 21st day of August, 1929, in Kentville, Nova Scotia, she was the daughter of the late George and Alma (Acker) Corbin, and wife of the late David Armand Doucette. Her family was her life. Florence will be dearly missed by her sons, Paul (Marion) and David; daughters, Joanne (Jim) and Susan (Kevin); brothers, Gene, Gerald, and Gary; grandchildren, Rick (Angela), Heidi (Chris), Leslie (Scott), Tony (Shawna), Daniel (Cindy), Sarah (Matt), Jamie (Catherine), and Stacy (George); 12 great grandchildren, 5 great-great grandchildren as well as many nieces and nephews. In addition to her parents and husband, she was predeceased by her son, Gary; daughter, Cathy; great grandson, Aaron; and siblings Mary, Catherine (Polly), Evelyn, George Francis, Sydney, Edgar, Vincent, and Ernie. We wish to extend sincere thanks to the Extra Mural Nurses, especially Tanya, and to Dr. Jon Leclerc, who looked after our mother. A private family gathering will take place at her home at a later date and she will be laid to rest in, what she would have referred to as "Down Home", Kentville, Nova Scotia. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society or Hospice House Fredericton would be greatly appreciated. There are no goodbyes for us; wherever you are, mom, you will always be in our hearts.
