We regret to advise of the death of retired former Firefighter Warrant Officer Edmond Comeau, CD (Ret’d) in Fredericton NB on 27 June 2026 at the age of 86.
Ed grew up in St. Ignace, NB. His parents both died when he was very young, and Ed became an independent young man. He joined the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1963 and served as a Firefighter in France, Germany and Summerside, PE before remustering to the Aircraft Refinisher Technician occupation.
Ed retired to Rexton, NB in 1988 where he took a job with Home Hardware in Richibucto. He was a member of the Legion and a keen genealogist. After 20 years in Rexton, Ed moved to Fredericton, where he served as president of his condo board. He moved to the Shannex Residence after the passing of his wife.
There will be no visitation at this time. Ed will be interred at Beechwood Cemetery in Ottawa, ON, at a future date. For those wishing to donate in remembrance of Ed, please do so to the charity of your choice and support your local Legion. Please leave your condolences, warm wishes and memories of Ed with the funeral home .
