1935~2026

Germaine Pauline Goguen (Leblanc) passed away peacefully on May 11, 2026, at the Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont Hospital in

Moncton, New Brunswick, surrounded by her loving family.

She was born on January 15, 1935, in St-Anselme, N.B.

Our Mom Germaine was a gale force wind.

She taught us what love, commitment, and partnership meant, even through the ups and downs of a nearly 70-year marriage.

Germaine was also known for having an open door.

She welcomed everyone with open arms and a freezer always filled with goodies.

She graduated from Notre-Dame de l’Acadie and later became a nurse.

Germaine is survived by her loving husband, Georges Goguen, her husband of 69 years; her two daughters, Nicole Troop (Ian) and Jocelyne Goguen (Luc); her grandchildren, Spencer (Jenna), Sofia, Pablo, Guillaume, Samuel (Gabrielle), Maxime (Kasandra), and Ariane (Vincent); as well as her three great-grandchildren, Blake, Alana, and Charles-Antoine.

She was predeceased by her mother, Lyda Leblanc (Leger), and her father, Raoul Leblanc; as well as her siblings, Jean-Paul Leblanc (Trudy), Jeanette Bourgeois (Renee), Gilbert Leblanc (Doris), Yvette Hamel (Guy), and Rachel Wedge (Clarence).

She is also survived by her younger sister, Lucille Leblanc (Robert).

The funeral service will be held on Saturday, June 13, 2026, beginning with visitation from 10 a.m. to 12 a.m., followed by a chapel service and a reception gathering afterwards at Passage Chartersville,

363 Amirault Street, Dieppe, New Brunswick, E1A 1G1, 506-857-1901.
