  • Fougere, Edward Joseph

    Poirierville, NS December 26, 2024 With profound sadness, we announce the passing of our beloved Papa, Edward Joseph Fougere, known to many as Eddie, age 78, of Poirierville. He passed away peacefully, surrounded by family, on December 26th at St. Martha’s Regional Hospital in Antigonish, NS. Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Eddie was the firstborn child of Lorraine and Clement Fougere. Eddie was known for his zest for life and his spirited, no-nonsense approach in his younger years. A skilled Red Seal painter, labourer, and fisherman, Eddie was a true jack of all trades—and, in his mind, a master of them all. He often shared stories of his adventures on the draggers and his travels across the country. Deeply involved in his community, Eddie was an active member of several organizations, including the Royal Canadian Legion, the New Horizons Club, and the D’Escousse Civic Improvement Hall. He was also a proud member of the Painters and Labourers Union. Eddie had a love for card games, and he often gathered with friends and family across Richmond County for evenings filled with laughter and friendly competition. His strategic mind and playful nature made him a formidable opponent, and his sneaky tricks—like holding onto that elusive 5—always provided a good laugh. Eddie was a prankster, and whether at his own expense or that of others, his wit ensured that everyone had a good time in his company. A devoted sports fan, Eddie could often be found either in his chair or his car, watching his favourite player—his son Clem—or following the Boston Bruins and Team Canada. Whether with a cup of tea or a Busch Light in hand, Eddie enjoyed visiting family, always surrounded by love. We will fondly remember him sitting by the front window of his home, watching the birds with his grandchildren, and showering them with his enduring affection. His one-liners, his clever tricks, and his sage advice—like the countless times he told his granddaughter Nikita, “Let’s learn something new today”—will remain with us forever. We will continue to offer our “lub” and support to each other, just as he taught us. Eddie will be deeply missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. He is survived by his loving wife of 52 years, Vivian, and their children: Nadine (Matt), Wanda, Crystal (Troy), Clem (Tara), and T.C. (Michel). He is also survived by his eight grandchildren: Nikita (Nathan), Marcus (Makaila), Kaleb, Brooklyn, Tessa, Emra, Kade, and Tenley, as well as his only great-grandchild, Alivia. Eddie is also survived by his sister, Shirley (Donald), and sisters-in-law: Margaret (Sandy), Delia (Vincent), and Claire. His gruff nature, quick wit, and the love he shared will remain close to our hearts. Eddie was predeceased by his parents, his in-laws David and Lillie Boudreau, his brother Donnie Fougere, his sister Marjorie Keating, and many brothers and sisters-in-law. Eddie was cherished by his extended family, friends, and all those who considered him a "second father." In lieu of a traditional visitation, a celebration of life will be held in the spring of 2025, where memorial donations can be made at that time. A heartfelt thank you goes to the incredible care team in the Emergency and Palliative Care Units at St. Martha’s Regional Hospital in Antigonish, especially Dr. Cooper, for keeping “Steady Eddie” on the straight and narrow. May the waves of Cap La Ronde, Eddie’s favourite place on earth, guide him to his final resting place.

Many nieces, nephews, grand-nieces, and grand-nephews who live across Canada and the United States will miss their “Auntie Weesie”. She was predeceased by her parents, Ronald and Jessie MacLellan, and her brother, Allan MacLellan, all of Strathlorne, Nova Scotia, and her nephew Justin Ernst of Ottawa, Ontario. Louise (Weese-E) sadly leaves behind the remaining ladies of the White Point Five (WP5) - Jane Webber, Wenda Densmore, Eleanor Hall, and Laurene MacDonald. A group of friends that carried each other and cared for each other through several decades of teaching, relationships, joys, and losses. Louise followed in the footsteps of her mother and older sister and chose a career as a teacher. She taught business education in both Sackville and Millwood High Schools for three decades, as well as one year at Inverness Consolidated High School at the beginning of her career. She was genuinely fulfilled by teaching and by her relationships with fellow teachers and students. Her teaching credentials were grounded in a Bachelor of Education degree from Mount St. Vincent University, Halifax, and a Bachelor of Arts degree from St. Mary’s University, Halifax. We would like to thank the staff of Maplestone Enhanced Care for their support and care of Louise over the past 19 months. We would also like to thank the caregivers who supported and showed kindness to Louise while she was still able to live at home, especially Nancy Gucciardi. Louise had a love of shoes, dangly earrings, scarves, wearing pink, and having a good laugh! A celebration of her life will be held on December 29th, 2024 at JA Snow Funeral Home at 339 Lacewood Dr., Halifax NS from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm. A formal service will be held from 2:00-3:00 pm, which will be preceded by a visitation and followed by a reception and further visitation.

In the summers, Donnie loved his time at Northside East Bay “out the land”, taking in the tranquility of the water, enjoying boating, and working on the property alongside his son Brett and brother-in-law David Lloyd. Donnie’s life was enriched by the many wonderful people he met over the years, friendships that stood the test of time. One of his greatest sources of pride was his grandson, Devon, whom he adored.
