Alice McCarthy
(1933-2022)
Alice McCarthy passed away Oct. 2, 2022, at Losier Hall, Miramichi surrounded by her family at the age of 89. Born in Nowlanville, Alice was the daughter of the late Joseph and Annie (Murphy) McCarthy.
After many years associated with The Sisters of Charity of Saint John, Alice retired to Bath, NB and later to the Jack Estey Manor in Loggieville, Miramichi. In her retirement, Alice pursued her passion for genealogy, bird watching, painting, and doing cross stitch, as well as enjoying many evenings playing card games with her friends at the Manor in Loggieville. During her career as a teacher, Alice taught in Saint John, St. Stephen, Winnipeg and Bath, NB. Of the many places where Alice lived and taught, her heart never left the areas of Johnville and Bath where she had many lifelong friends. As she said when she left Johnville, “it was my home away from home for twenty- five years. I. always felt welcomed and even traded fishhooks for worms.” She enjoyed the outdoors and fishing. Alice fulfilled her dream of visiting Ireland in 2011.
Alice leaves to mourn her sister, Mary Williamson of Bathurst, sister-in- law, Martina McCarthy of Miramichi, her nephew and nieces John Williamson (Mary Roberts) of Douglas, NB, Laura Williamson (Liam Floyd) of Ireland and Margaret McCarthy of Miramichi ; her great nieces and nephews, Janey, Annie and Joe Williamson of Douglas and Douglas Floyd of Ireland as well as many cousins and dear friends. Besides her parents, Alice was predeceased by her sister Kathleen Richard, her brothers, F/O John McCarthy and Lawrence McCarthy, her brothers-in-law Joseph Richard and Douglas Williamson.

Funeral arrangements are entrusted to Maher’s Funeral Home, Miramichi. Visitation will take place Tuesday, October 11, from 2-4 pm and 7-9 pm. Funeral Mass will be celebrated at St. Patrick’s Church, Nelson, Miramichi on Wednesday, October 12 at 11am with burial to follow in the adjoining cemetery.
