Obituary of Eleanor June Goss

Eleanor June Goss (née Linton) passed away peacefully on Friday, August 23, 2024 surrounded by her children. 
Eleanor was born in Saint John, New Brunswick on June 23, 1930 to John and Vera Linton.

She was married for 43 years to her loving husband, Hugh Donald Goss and together they raised five children.
