MORICE, GARY - It is with profound sadness that we announce that Gary Morice, 56, with his loving family by his side, passed away on December 13, 2009 at the Moncton Hospital after a brief illness. Born in Sackville, he was the son of Reta (Wells) Morice and the late William Morice. Gary will be forever missed by Sylvia, his soul mate and loving wife of 37 years; son Shane, Fort McMurray, AB; daughter Erin, Halifax, NS; mother Reta; brothers Christopher, Sackville, John, Kelowna, BC, Jeffrey (Annette Leblanc), Sackville, Darrel (Kathie), Sackville; sister Debbie (Ronald Chapman), Sackville; several aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews; and in-laws Cecil Hicks (Vivien) Sackville, Les Hicks (Faye), Edmonton, AB, James Hicks, Victoria, BC and Sharon Hicks, Fredericton, NB. Gary was predeceased by his father William and brother Richard (Darlene). Gary was a proud employee of RBC for 38 years until retiring November 30, 2009 due to his illness. During his lengthy career he lived in Moncton, NB, Bathurst NB, St. John, NB, Port Hawkesbury, NS, Placentia, NL, Newcastle, NB, Arichat, NS, and St. John's, NL, before returning to Sackville NB in Dec 2000 as manager of RBC Sackville.
