1982 – 2026
With broken hearts and loving memories, we announce the passing of our precious son Todd Jonathan Burgess of Riverview which occurred on Friday, March 6, 2026, at his home surrounded by his loving family & friends. Todd was born in Moncton to Doug and Linda (Robertson) Burgess.
Todd had a passion for life and experienced many adventures. He loved riding his Harley Davidson motorcycle and travelling with his parents on several Bus Tours (His favorite was Nashville at the George Jones Museum). He was an outdoors guy who enjoyed fishing and picking fiddleheads for his mother. In his younger years he loved cycling and was an avid Wildcats Fan and enjoyed several games with Jacob and Scott.
The love of his life was his daughter Kalle. The bond Kalle and Todd shared was very special and they also shared the same sense of humour which was very prevalent when spending an evening watching funny videos together. The laughter filled the house with lasting memories.
Todd enjoyed working and was a true company man. He started his first job at the Atlantic Super Store in Riverview at age 15 when it first opened. Following graduation he took his Red Seal Welders Course in Moncton. After Graduation this took him to Hartland at Craig’s Manufacturing followed by several adventures to Alberta, Newfoundland and Africia. Upon return to N.B. he worked at Glenwood Kitchens in Shediac for a few years. He then became the friendly face at the Holy Whale where he touched many lives with his love and kindness. Todd enjoyed his work there and found close friends in his employers, Jeff and Peter Grandy.
He will be dearly missed by his loving parents Doug and Linda, daughter Kalle, brother Scott (Lorrie), nephew Jacob, his best friend Matt Sullivan who was like a brother to him, former spouse and loving friend Elisha Burgess, aunts, uncles, cousins, and close friends Mark & J.I., who held his hand until the end. He is predeceased by an infant son Jonathan Todd, his maternal grandparents Leonard & Evelyn Robertson and paternal grandparents Jack & Stella Burgess.
The family will be receiving friends and family at Cobb’s Funeral home and Cremation Centre, 330 White Pine Rd. Riverview (506-869-2007) on Wednesday March 11th from 2-4 PM and 6-8 PM.
