It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our sister, Doris Mary Cosman, who at the age of 61 years went home to be with the Lord. She died peacefully at the Sussex Regional Hospital on Monday, June 27, 2011. Born in Moncton,NB on August 19, 1949; Doris was the eldest child of the late J.W. (Bud) Cosman and the late Harriett (Miller) Cosman. After graduating from Moncton High School in 1966, Doris received her R.N. degree from the Saint John Regional School of Nursing in 1969 and joined the Canadian Armed Forces in 1971 as a Lieutenant where she remained for three years. She worked in many areas of nursing, including ten years at Dorchester Penitentiary, before moving to Norton, NB in 1992, where she retired due to ill health. Doris had a love of gardening and had beautiful flowers and shrubs around her home where many people would stop and admire her work. She also had a great love of children and they were her passion. She volunteered her time for five years at the Sussex Christian School where she had lots of "hugs and hallelujahs " for "her kids". She loved to work on the computer where she self taught herself to make personalized greeting cards and calendars of all kinds. She made them to sell, but as usual, she gave most of them as gifts. She was a very generous person with her talents and her time. Doris had a keen wit and sense of humor and would bring laughter into the lives of those she knew and met. She was a great source of encouragement, always willing to help in any way she could at her church and she loved her church family. Doris will be sadly missed by all but they will be thrilled to know she can now fly! Doris is survived by two sisters, Beverly (Robert Turnbull) of Riverview, NB, Judy (Steve Wood) of Belnan, NS and by one brother Greg (Linda) of Moncton, NB and sister-in-law Wendy (Cosman) Morley of Moncton. Also by nieces and nephews Joshua, Sara, Colleen, Travis, Jennifer, Jeffery and James; great-nieces Tia, Nadia and Kara and great-nephews Duncan, Nathan and Liam. Doris will also be lovingly remembered by her very best friends, Dave and Grace Armstrong. Doris was a second Mom to their children, Jadon, Jon, Peter and Aaron. She was loved by her special "brats", Perry and Laurie Milbury of Oshawa, ON and Mike and Joanne Brehaut of Sussex, NB.
