Obituary of Vince Veinotte

It is with great sadness that the family of Vincent LeRoy Veinotte announce his peaceful passing on Wednesday, October 21, 2020 at Rocmaura Nursing Home. Born on March 10, 1935 in Berwick, Nova Scotia, he was a son of the late Moyle and Eva (Eisnor) Veinotte.

Vince retired from the Canadian Red Cross where he held the position of Blood Donor Director for New Brunswick. He enjoyed all sports, especially golf and baseball (he was a diehard Yankee fan). Vince was very social and a loyal friend to many. He was well known for his dry sense of humour. Above all, Vince loved spending time with his family. He will be missed by all who knew him.
