It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Bruce Edward Brownell, 55, of Sackville at the Sackville Memorial Hospital in the early hours of Monday, August 24, 2020.  Bruce was born May 25, 1965, a son of Hazel (Bob) Berry and the late Alton Brownell.  

Bruce had been a skilled carpenter who took great pride in his work.  He was very well known for his expertise and spent many weekends helping anyone who asked.

Bruce was well known for his sense of humour. He was an amiable person who was also a bit of a prankster. Bruce was an avid and talented musician who could play almost any instrument.  He loved to hunt and spend time out doors. He was a lover of animals, especially cats and dogs.

Bruce will be sadly missed by three children, Lesley, Taryn and Olivia Brownell, all of Sackville; their mother, Tracey Brownell; two grandchildren, Cohen and Adelynn, both of Sackville; his mother, Hazel (Bob) Berry; siblings, Jean, John (Bonnie), and Stanley Brownell; his step-brothers Graham and Steven, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, close friends and extended family.

Besides his father, Bruce was predeceased by his brother Leslie and a granddaughter, Sara. 

Arrangements are under the care and guidance of Jones Funeral Home, 70 Bridge Street, Sackville (506-364-1300). Honouring Bruce's wishes, cremation has taken place and there is to be no visitation or services.  

The family wishes to extend their sincere gratitude to the staff of the Sackville Memorial Hospital for their care and compassion during this time.
