Murielle Helen Young Bullen, the devoted wife of John Bullen and a mighty woman of God passed away suddenly on December 27th, 2023, at Chaleur Regional Hospital at the age of 78.

Born on May 16th, 1945, to the late Joseph Ernest Young and the late Rose Anna Gionet, Murielle was preceded in death by her half siblings Aurele, Jeff, Peggy, Eric, Raymond, Laurie, Maurice and Connie. She is survived by her siblings Marie, Doris, and Stephen.

Remembered as a charismatic woman with a very colorful and bright personality, Murielle loved to laugh and always lit up a room. She was deeply cherished in her community and held a special place in her heart for her church family. She especially valued the bond with her siblings and treasured their gatherings. Murielle was also very creative and could take the simplest items and create the most warm and beautiful surroundings. Anyone who knew Murielle would know that special shade of green was a reminder of the hope she had in God.

There is no place on earth that she would rather be than her summer cottage in Caraquet, surrounded with every available surface pasted with pictures of friends and family that touched her heart. There, she found immense joy in hosting and welcoming countless visitors and spreading warmth and love to all.

She will be dearly missed and fondly remembered by her son Andrew and his children Meghan and Nicholas, her daughter Helen (Dwayne) and their children Eve, Mia, and Kate, and her daughter Stephanie (Jorge) and their children Samantha and Alex. She will also be lovingly remembered by her stepdaughters Carol (John) and her children Ashley and Troy and Tina and her children Andrew and Ben.

Visitation will be held at Elhatton Funeral Home in Bathurst at 2-4 pm and 7-9 pm on Friday January 5th, 2024 and a funeral service at Evangel Pentecostal Church at 10 am on Saturday January 6th, 2024. The family hopes to plan a celebration of life in Caraquet this summer.  The funeral services can be seen remotely by visiting the church web-site, their Facebook page or You tube channel, http://youtube.com/evangelbathurst.

Donations in memory of Murielle may be made to the CNIB or a charity of the donor’s choice.

Arrangements are in the care of Elhatton Funeral Home (www.elhatton.com).
