She passed away peacefully, surrounded by her family at Bobby’s Hospice House. Born in Minto, NB, on July 2, 1950. She was the daughter of Edith Doiron and the late Fred Jacquart. Elaine moved to Saint John in 1963, and graduated from Vocational High School in 1968. She then went to work for NBtel and retired from there after 30 years of service. Elaine’s generous heart and kind ways were extended to everyone she met. Her greatest treasure was her family!
