Rhonda Lynn Dunn passed away peacefully at the Moncton Hospital on August 25, 2019, with her husband by her side, after a courageous battle with cancer.

She is also survived by her granddaughters Ella, Charlotte and Abigail Black, who affectionately knew her as “Nan”. Rhonda lived for her granddaughters, who cherished their frequent visits from Nan.
Rhonda is further survived by a large circle of friends throughout New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.
Visitation and funeral took place at Fair Haven Funeral Home in Moncton, NB. A short graveside memorial will take place at 12:30pm on Saturday, September 21st at Peaceful Hill Cemetery, Port Mouton, NS.

I am so saddened about Rhonda’s passing. Such a young, vibrant woman with lovely grandchildren and family. Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers as you go through this heart-rending time. It is always more difficult for children to pass on before their parents, She was a lovely daughter and a great childhood friend of my sister, Joanne. Bless you all at this time and going forward with Rhonda’s memory to comfort you.
Love, Emily

I am truly saddened to hear of Rhonda’s passing and to have missed the reception yesterday- as I returned late last evening from a trip. Rhonda was a great childhood friend of mine before I moved from Port Mouton and we always had lovely chats and laughs whenever we ran into each other.
My condolences in the loss of a beautiful daughter, wife, mother, grandmother, sister and friend.
