Robertine "Robbie" LeBrun

Robertine N. “Robbie” (Berube) LeBrun, 90, of the Plantsville section of Southington, beloved wife of 69 years to Ivan “Bud” LeBrun, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, January 18, 2022 at her home surrounded by her family. “Robbie”, as she was known to her family and friends, was born on January 5, 1932 in Daigle, Maine and was the daughter of the late Midas and Melvina (Morin) Berube. She was employed as a wedding consultant for JC Penny Department Stores for many years and later in her life she also worked at Lewis Farms. “Robbie” was a devout woman of her catholic faith which is evident from her over 25 years as a CCD instructor at Mary Our Queen Church where she also was a member of the Ladies Guild, and with the parish R.C.I.A. program which she helped mentor those who were entering the catholic faith. She also had a deep devotion to the Virgin Mother. When she had spare time, she loved to create beautiful handmade quilts for her grandchildren. However, Christmas time was her most cherished time with her family where she made beautiful stockings for them. Her family was her pride and joy and they will miss her immensely. Besides her husband, “Robbie” is survived by her children, Wayne LeBrun of St. Francis, ME, Vina Nadeau and her husband Carl of Southington, Will LeBrun and his wife Ann of Belchertown, MA, Candice Neagle and her husband Jon of Windsor, and Tina Dorsey and her husband Jon of Southington. She is also survived by her cherished grandchildren, Ryan, Mary and Sara Nadeau, Julie Casey and her husband Mike, William LeBrun and his wife Hilary, Courtney and John LeBrun, Patrick and Erin Neagle, Kate D’Agata and her husband Jack, and Rachel and Michael Dorsey. She was also great grandmother to Noah, Jacob and Ava Casey, William and Calum LeBrun and Ethan, Reid, and Liam D’Agata, and by her brother Valmont Berube and his wife Verla and by several nieces and nephews. “Robbie” was predeceased by her grandson, Sean LeBrun who is now showing her around Heaven and by her siblings, Edwin, Albert, Gilbert, Vincent, Clifford, Floyd, Doris, Jackie, Norma and Iris.
