It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Joanne Louise Dulenty, 68, of Moncton, and formerly of Murray Corner, NB, on Sunday, October 17, 2021 at the Moncton Hospital following a courageous battle with cancer.
Born January 15, 1953, Joanne was a daughter of the late Howard and Dorothy (Anthony) Warman, of Bayfield, NB
Joanne grew up on the family homestead, as the one of oldest she helped to raise 7 younger siblings. The responsibilities of chores, cooking, and caring for the little ones created a person with great strength and determination. After graduating from high school in 1972, she started working for Eaton & Company in Moncton, NB. When the time came that she married and started to have children she took a step back from working outside of the home to raise her own young family. At the age of 35, Joanne got her driver’s license, heavy foot and all, and returned to the workforce.
Over the next years Joanne worked at a number of local businesses around the community including, PEDVAC, the Port Elgin restaurant, and the Shemogue Variety. In 1998 at the age of 45 she made a career change and joined Fulford call centre, in Sackville, NB. This led to the opportunity to return to school in 1999 to further her education. Around this time, a change in her personal life found her relocating from Murray Corner to Moncton, NB. In 2000 she joined Purolator where she would work for the next 18 years before retiring at the age of 65.
Joanne has spent the last 21 years with her loving spouse Peter. The two have shared many adventures along the way. Trips to PEI, the Cabot Trail, Kingston, Niagara Falls, Oshawa, Edmonton as well as more local visits with family and friends around New Brunswick just to name a few. Many trips resulted in a stop at a creek or brook to watch Peter fish, in hopes he would pull out a big one, and allowing Mom to take in nature and the serenity it provides. She loved her family, friends and the occasional knitting sessions resulting in socks, mittens or something for her grandchildren.
She is survived by her spouse, Peter Brammah, Moncton, NB; children, David (Julia), Jolicure, Howard, Amherst, NS, Tammy Dulenty (Jeremy St. Thomas), Moncton, NB and Timothy (Amanda), Wood Point, NB; grandchildren, Trevor, Krista, Matthew, Avery, Eden, Travis, Hannah, Mason, and Jackston; step grandchildren, Tyran, Tylor, and Cassidy; great granddaughter Presley; siblings Donnie (Deborah) Warman, Grand Prairie, AB, Wanda (Jerry) Trenholm, Riverview, NB, Wade Warman, Vancouver, BC, Bonnie (Harvey) Sprague, Grand Prairie, AB, Susan (Robert) Wilson, Sackville, Gordon (Sabrina) Warman, Centreville, NB, and Sheldon (Marcia) Warman, Oakville, ON; as well as several aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.
Besides her parents, Joanne was predeceased by her first husband Walter Dulenty; her grandson Noah; her step grandson, Devon; her brother Ralph and infant brother Rodney.
