Obituary of Desiree Rose Poplar-Surette
POPLAR-SURETTE, Desiree Rose - age 17, of Nine Mile River, suffered an
unexpected and catastrophic brain aneurysm on Tuesday, September 15, and
passed away peacefully on Saturday, September 19, 2020. Desiree's wish was
to be an organ donor which was granted on September 20th through the Legacy of
Life.
Born in Lebanon, New Hampshire, she was a daughter of Roger Surette of
Massachusetts and Tabitha Poplar of Joggins.
Desiree had a full beautiful life in which everyone that knew her, loved her.
She began her dancing career at the age of 4 and was a competitive dancer with
RSI Danceworks for over ten years. Desiree was a proud member of 2937 Enfield
Army cadets, achieving the rank of Warrant Officer. She was a very active,
outgoing girl who enjoyed mountain biking, hiking and loved kayaking. Above
all this, she cherished her special bond with her dog, Cooper whom she loved
with all her heart.
She will be tremendously missed by her parents, Darren and Kathy McDonald, who
have been in her life since Desiree was 22 months old; her beloved sister,
Madison McDonald, at home; brother, David Daborn, Nine Mile River;
grandparents, Charles and Janet McDonald, Cornwall PEI, Warren and Donna
