Obituary of Zella Marie O'Dell

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our mother, Zella. She passed away peacefully, surrounded by family at The Grass Nursing Home on Friday, March 22, 2019, in her 93rd year. Born in Cocagne she was the daughter of the late Alban and Adele Cormier (Breau). Zella was a loving mother, grandmother, and great grandmother and her family was her priority.

She was long-time member of St. Bernard's Roman Catholic Church, was a member of the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Moncton Legion, and was involved in fundraising efforts by the CNR War Veterans Club. All that knew Zella will remember her great sense of humor and quick wit. Her kindness to others will never be forgotten and she will live on in the hearts of her loved ones.
