On Sunday, August 13, 2017, Jacques C. Nadeau (born in St Francois de Madawaska), passed away in Fredericton, NB. 

Jacques is deeply mourned by his wife of 40 years Pamela (Easterbrook), his son Michel (Roberta Berry), his daughter Christianne Askanas (Hubert); his beloved grandchildren Leif Berry, Caelum Askanas and Aniela Askanas; his brothers Roger, Guy, Richard (Gisele), Daniel (Mona), Paul (Marilyn) and Jean-Claude Nadeau; his sisters Suzanne Daigle and Denise Nadeau (Christian Cyr), and his many beloved in-laws, nieces and nephews.

 Jacques lived his life fully, devoting himself with passion, kindness and impish good humour to his family, his work, and his many interests.  During his 32 year career of serving the people of NB, he channelled his powerful mind and kind heart in many ways: from social welfare, to justice, to human resources to directing the construction of the Sentier NB Trails system, while earning a Masters Degree in Adult Education along the way.  And in retirement, he directed his heart and mind to a wonderful array of new passions, including teaching computer skills, ATVing, motorcycling, photography and travel.  He is grateful for all those he has known, loved, and shared in the adventure of his amazing life.  He will be greatly missed.

Funeral and visitation will be held at Sainte-Anne-des-Pays-Bas Roman Catholic Church, 715 Priestman Street, Fredericton on Wednesday, August 16, 2017. Visitation will be held from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM followed by a Funeral Mass at 4:00 PM with Father Shawn Daley officiating.
