Obituary of Hugh Bernard Bartlett
The family of the late Hugh Bartlett announces his passing at the Saint John Regional Hospital on February 6, 2023. Survived by his wife, Karen (Williams) Bartlett, daughter, Tiffany (Holly), Truro, daughter-in-law Andrea and granddaughter Nora, Miramichi, his siblings Chris (Ross) Lister, Robert (Bessie) Bartlett, Francie (Lance) Howard, a special cousin Paul Delaney and many nieces, nephews and cousins.
Predeceased by his parents Lawrence and Marion (Dorcas) Bartlett, his son Graham, and his wife’s parents Lewis and Kaye Williams.
Along with his father, Hugh operated the Bartlett’s Mills Sawmill and was proud to be the 7th generation of mill operators. In 1984 they formed Goldsmith Lumber, a new cedar mill. He designed and manufactured all the machinery to enhance the mill to its fullest potential.
Hugh’s machine shop was a place for his curiosity to be developed and many challenging inventions. Hughie valued his friendships formed there and was always willing to lend a helping hand. His camp was also a favorite gathering place where he felt at home with nature.
