Alec Boudreau of Hillsborough passed away peacefully at The Moncton Hospital on Sunday, January 3, 2021. Born in Sackville, he was the son of the late Joseph Alexander and Adelaide (Leger) Boudreau.

He received his education in Toronto and later returned to New Brunswick in the 1960’s with his parents. Most of his working career was in sales, having received various awards and accommodations over the years. Though his career was in sales, Alec should have been a professional shopper/consumer as he was an expert in locating items, prices, ratings and performances of products and most importantly where to find the best buy. In his spare time he enjoyed; horse racing, watching TV, shopping and trips to Bangor and had a special place in his heart for animals and loved his dog "Cassie".

He is survived by his wife of over 47 years, Gail (Barnhill) Boudreau, sister, Althea MacGregor (Alfred) and brother, Loney Boudreau (Elaine), brother-in-law, Edward Barnhill (Ulla) and cherished friend of over 40 years, Brenda Condon. Besides his parents, he was predeceased by sisters: Jennie, Pauline and his mother and father in law, Joan and Stan Barnhill.
