Eunice Boyle (born LaPointe), resident of Moncton and formerly of Bathurst, passed away on November 10, 2026, at the age of 91. Born in Nash Creek, she was the daughter of the late Emma LaPointe (Furlong) and the late John E. LaPointe.
Eunice lived a life full of deep kindness, resilience, and unwavering dedication to her family. Following her first marriage, she resided in Pointe-Verte before making her home in Bathurst for many years, and later moving to Moncton. She was remarkably blessed to find deep love twice in her lifetime.
She was predeceased by her first husband, Roméo Fournier, with whom she shared 22 years of marriage until his passing in 1978. She was also predeceased by her second husband, Greg Boyle, with whom she shared nearly 22 years of marriage until his passing in 2011, as well as by her beloved son, Paul Fournier, in 2025.
Eunice is survived by her loving children: Mario Fournier (Carolle) of Fredericton, Jeannot Fournier of Bathurst, Tony Fournier (Janique) of Pointe-Verte, and Suzie Gruenewald (Ralph) of Moncton. She is also survived by her daughter-in-law, Sophie Fournier of Petit-Rocher, who holds an enduring place in our family's hearts. Eunice is also survived by her step-sons, Vaughn Boyle of Santa Barbara, CA, Steven Boyle of Ottawa, ON, and Timothy Boyle of Bathurst.
She leaves behind a legacy of love through her 12 grandchildren: Samuel, Jérémie (Angela), Genève (Bruno), Myriam (David, Mathieu (Margie), Yves, Marc-Alex, Paul-Anthony, Karl (Tasia), Bianca (Noah), Jessie (Martin), and Zoé (Frederick). She will also be dearly missed by her 10 great-grandchildren: Béatrice, Eveline, Roméo, Lausanne, Alizée Axelle, Allison, Aurelia, Atticus, Camille, and Vivianne. She is also survived by many special nieces, nephews, and extended family members who held a very dear place in her heart.
She was predeceased by her siblings: Sylvia, Arnold, Hilda, Eldric, Dorothy, Gabriel, Claude, Robina and Agnes.
Eunice's gentle strength, warm heart, and devotion to her blended family will be cherished forever by all who knew her.
