Soucy was elected mayor earlier this year in the May 11 municipal election and was sworn in May 27.
Being mayor of Campbellton was not his first stint in politics, having previously served as the mayor of Atholville, N.B., before it became part of Campbellton. He served that community as mayor from 2012 until 2016.
A post by Soucy’s family said Soucy died from cardiac arrest.
“In this moment, we want to express our deep admiration and gratitude for the man he was,” said Mario Soucy, one of the mayor’s children, in a Facebook post. “His actions were deeply rooted in his values and convictions.”
The Regional Community sent its sincere condolences to Soucy’s family and friends in their post.
It said further details would be announced when they are available.
