Leola Kearney

KEARNEY, LEOLA R. - 1923 - 2014 - The death of Leola Ruby Kearney of Fredericton and formerly of Beechwood occurred on Saturday, August 2, 2014 at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital. Born August 31, 1923 she was the daughter of the late Wilmot and Izetta (Oakes) Giberson. She was also predeceased by her husband, Holland Kearney; one infant daughter; three siblings, Dorothy Browning, Vivian Kearney and Lewis Giberson. Leola lived most of her married life in Beechwood bringing up her family, loving her community and taking an active role in her church, so moving to Fredericton in 2004 and leaving loved ones behind was a difficult decision to make. Thanks to the warmth and kindness of new neighbours and a new church, Leola made lasting friendships and came to think of Fredericton as home. Leloa is survived by her four children, Shirley Elliott (Gordon), Marty Haines (David), Debbie Jones (Jim) and David Kearney (Trina); 11 grandchildren; 20 great-grandchildren; two siblings, Marion Gibbons and Don Giberson (Phyllis) as well as several nieces, nephews and extended family.

A funeral service will be held Friday, August 8 2014 at 1:00 pm from the Beechwood Baptist Church. Pastor Dwayne Broad will officiate. Interment will be held in the Wharton Cemetery.
