It is with sadness that the family of Gayle Norma Hewitt announce her passing on March 19, 2024, Fredericton, NB.  Born on September 15, 1949, she was a daughter of the late John and Bernice (Nason) Morgan.

Mom loved to knit and sew and took great pleasure in making clothes, curtains, quilts and sweaters for herself and others. She enjoyed watching hockey games and NASCAR racing.  Gayle and Arnold loved to travel Canada and USA, attending many Blue Grass Festivals along the way. Lots of time was shared with family and friends at the cottage in Lake George.  Mom was a life-long member of the Nasonworth Baptist Church, taking part in the choir and the Women’s Missionary Society.  Mom was also a member of the Red Hat Society, Happy Chatters and Crown Jewels of Canada Society.
