Candy Lee Thompson

After a long, courageous battle with cancer, Candy Lee (Jones) Thompson passed away on July 19, 2022.

Candy was very fortunate to connect with a large group of friends who became family and her loss will be felt by so many. She was always thrilled to open her home every summer to welcome friends to stay, relax, laugh, eat amazing food and remember what it was like to be a kid again. Candy found joy in bringing people together in a world that is increasingly separated.

Candy will be sincerely missed by her daughter, Emma Jones (Dylan) of The Glades; her son, Scott Jones of Little River; step-daughter, Amanda Reid (Wayne) of Fredericton; step-sons, Mark Thompson (Eve) of Oromocto and Mike Thompson (Jennifer) of Edmonton; her brother, Timmy Jones; her niece, Cindy Jones and several grandchildren.

Candy was predeceased by her beloved husband, Mark Thompson. Her and mark found each other later in life, but they packed a lot of living in the years that they had. So many memories made, emotions felt, experiences and lessons learned. He truly was the love of her life. They brought together an extended family of wonderful people full of love for each other.

Arrangements have been entrusted to the care of Salisbury Funeral Home. A celebration of Candy’s life will be held at a later date. If desired, donations to the Friends of the Moncton Hospital (Palliative Care Unit) would be greatly appreciated by the family. Online condolences and donations may be made at www.keirsteads.com
