Donna Marie Schwerdel (December 8, 1942 - August 14, 2011)

Schwerdel, Donna Marie - Passed away peacefully on August 14, 2011 at the Upper River Valley Hospital, Waterville, NB at the age of 96.

Donna was the youngest daughter of the late Emery and Evelyn (Carr) Armour.

Donna is survived by her husband, Hans; three sisters, Marjorie Farrell of Woodstock, NB, Gladys (Marvin) Foster of North Lake, NB, and Ruth (Russell) Boone of Moncton, NB; four beloved nieces, Patty (Trent) Hatcher of Moncton, NB, Debbie Boone of Saint John, NB, Lucille (Greg) MacDonald of Dartmouth, NS, and Becky (Edward) Betts of Saint John, NB; five nephews, Cameron (Rhonda)Farrell of North Lake, NB, Kevin (Janey) Farrell of MacKenzie Corner, NB, Greg (Jane) Foster of North Lake, NB, Tracey (Luanne) Foster of Moncton, NB, and her favorite, Richard Boone of Moncton, NB; four great-nieces, Julie, Emily, Amy, and Angie; three great-nephews, Lance, Adam, And Kyle; one very special great-great-niece, Jail McLeod; her uncle, Richard (Dorothy) Armour of Qualicum Beach, BC; three aunts, Catherine Armour, Symrna Mills of Maine, USA, and Lillian Williams of Woodstock, NB; as well as numerous cousins.

Donna also leaves behind her soulmate in teaching, Janet Clark of Brownsburg-Chatam, QC. There motto was “Every mind is so precious and not to be wasted”.

Besides her parents, Donna was predeceased by her brother in law, Paul Farrell.

Her whole life she was devoted to teaching, and enjoyed grades 5-6 most of all. She felt the children at this level were getting inquisitive and starting to question the world around them. She strove to answer their questions by making them consider the question from all sides and draw their own conclusions, to think outside the box. She has had many students contact her, years after they had graduated, to thank her for instilling the self-confidence they required as they made their way through higher education and then the responsibility of adulthood.

Once retired, Donna enjoyed her home at the Eel River Lake, where she was always puttering around her numerous flower beds, walking though the woods and always marveling how perfect nature was no matter which season.

With respects to Donna's wishes, there will be no visitation. Followed by cremation, a private family celebration of her life will be held at The Scott Funeral Home Chapel at a later date.

Boston (AP) A 13-year dim-out may have ended for Miss Gertrude Atkinson of St. Stephen, thanks to the skill of surgeons and a person she never will know. Miss Atkinson, 28, underwent a corneal transplant Wednesday at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary. The diseased cornea of her right eye was removed and replaced by a healthy cornea from a dead person. It will be two weeks before she knows whether the transplant has been successful. The young woman vowed that if she is able to see, "I will arrange to donate this one good eye to the eye bank upon my death so that some other person will be given a chance for sight." Her sight started failing when she was 15. She worked in mills and restaurants to save money so she could consult specialists in St. Stephen, Fredericton and Boston. Here she learned of the eye bank and doctors arranged for a transplant as soon as the proper cornea became available.
