Naish Addicott — Châteauguay

Naish (nee Young) Addicott, 85, passed peacefully on May 7, 2018 with her family and loved ones at her side. Predeceased by her loving husband, Harry in 2016. Naish will be lovingly remembered by her son, Vaughan; daughter, Eileen, and grandsons, Cody, Jordan and Adam. She is also survived by her sisters, Lextella McManaman, Lenora Jessome (Emerson) and Sally Stubbert (Brosie); her sisters-in-law, Marjorie and Shirley; nieces; nephews, and a host of long-time friends. She will be reunited with her parents, Ben and Liza; her brothers, John D., Benjie, Franklyn and Alex; her sisters, Marie and Nelida; dear in-laws, and loved-ones. Naish was born and raised in Bras d'Or, Nova Scotia. Harry and Naish were married and moved to Sydney, NS, followed by Halifax, then Ottawa and finally Mercier, QC. She threw her energies into raising their children. Open to all neighbouring children, she earned the name of ‘Madame Gomme’. Her playfulness and zest for life were some of her many qualities. To know her was to love her, she was the best example of a human being.
