It is with profound sadness that I announce the passing of my mother, Gert, who passed away at St. Anthony’s Hospital in Petersburg, FL, on Sunday, February 19, 2017 following a brief illness. Born in Miramichi, she was the daughter of the late Jenny (Jardine) and Wilson Wyse.

A talented woman, she was a seamstress for many and in Florida was well known for her baked goods especially her key lime pie and rum cakes which she made for many an occasion. A loyal and loving friend to many she never missed a birthday and was a great letter writer.

She will be dearly missed by her loving daughter, Jolene Mutch Wortman (Kevin); her husband, Robert Potts of Florida; her sisters, Elaine Taylor and Karen Creamer and their families; as well as Jolene’s father, Nyles Mutch. Besides her parents, she was predeceased by her brother, Delbert; a very special nephew, Troy; her brother in law, Pierson; and an aunt Ardith who was more like a sister to her.

A memorial service will take place at Cobb’s Funeral Home and Cremation Center, 330 Whitepine Rd., Riverview (869-2007) on Friday, February 24, 2017 at 2:30pm. In mom’s memory, a donation to The Moncton SPCA or CARMA would be appreciated because she truly loved cats and had many in her lifetime. Online condolences may be expressed at www.cobbsfuneralhome.ca
