Thinking of you all during this difficult time. Thoughts and prayers are with you.
Warm thoughts and prayers.
Looking forward to celebrating the life of this brilliant wonderful woman. Mom Boissonneault.
Denise,Michelle,Yvonne and Family, My deepest sympathy at this very sad time?
Your mother was very blest to have her daughters so attentive to her, especially during her illnesses. Alistair and I send you our thoughts and prayers.
Tina,
How kind of you to reach out with your message of condolence.
Of course I remember you. You were my one good friend from elementary school. I remember walking to school together, and coming to your house after school, where we’d play badminton in your basement.
I know you went to St. Joe’s for high school.
How is your family? I remember you saying you met your husband when he came to visit your dad in hospital.
Let me know what’s going on in your life.
Yvonne
Oh my goodness, Yvonne. I just saw your reply and I am so excited that you remember me. After St. Joe’s, I went to U of T and became a French Translator. Later, I taught high school. I retired in 2018. I have two sons, Paul and Mark. I am also a grandmother to three amazing children: Sienna (3), Jeremy (2), and Natalie (1). They fill my life with so much joy. My father died in 1994 and my mother moved in with us in 2017. How are you doing?
So very sorry for the loss of your treasured mother Michelle.
I would like to offer my condolences to Denise, Michelle, and Yvonne. I know that your mother’s love will transcend the universe and embrace you with comfort. Yvonne, I don’t know if you remember me. My name is Tina and we sat next to each other in Sister Mary Joseph’s Grade 6 class at St. Thomas Aquinas. We walked to school together every day. When you moved to Ottawa, we kept writing to each other but, after awhile, we lost touch. I often wondered what happened to you. I noticed the obituary in today’s paper and decided to reach out to you in sympathy and to let you know that I still remember the little blond girl who always had her nose in a book.
Remembering all the good times and family gatherings so long ago with Art’s cousin Eleanor. Our condolences on the passing of a fine woman.
My condolences to the Boissonneault family.
