It is with deep sorrow that the family announce her passing at the Golden Manor on Saturday July 11, 2015. She is predeceased by her husband Albert in 2009. She will be sadly missed by her sister Theresa (Raymond) Taylor and several nieces and nephews. Predeceased by her parents Amable and Arthemise Pigeon, and her siblings Albert, Maurice, Rudy, Alice Gosselin, Betty Butler and Lilian Marois.

At this time the family would like to express a sincere thank you to the excellent caregivers at the Golden Manor.
