Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryFRANCES ROSE PARENTEAU (nee CHARTRAND) 1947 2010 With heartfelt sadness the family announces the passing of our Mom, Grandma, Great-Grandma, God Mother, Sister, Auntie, Cousin and Friend on Tuesday, October 26, 2010 at the Health Sciences Centre at the age of 63 years. Frances will be greatly missed and lovingly remembered by her beloved husband, Stanley Parenteau of 45 years of marriage; her puppy dog Josh (her baby); daughter Diana (Doyle); grandchildren, Harlee (Michelle), Vikkie (David), Brandon (Kayla); great-grandson Cassius; great-granddaughter Kassidee; son Melvin (Marni); grandchildren, Bret, Skye and Serene; son Alvin aka Champ (Betty) and Champ's daughter Patricia whom she all loved dearly. She was predeceased by her Mother (1994) and infant daughter (1982). Mom and Dad had a lot of wonderful times together. They enjoyed attending hockey and football games and other sports where their grandchildren played. They loved dancing, playing cards, going to the McPhillips Street Station, playing Sports Select and watching the horse races and football. They enjoyed the simple pleasure of being together. Mom was a very beautiful lady inside and out. She was a very kind hearted person with a great sense of humour who never got upset. She was a smart woman who gave her children advice. Even though Mom suffered and was in pain for so long she never complained. We all feel blessed that we had her for as long as we did. She will be greatly missed by all whose lives she touched. On Wednesday, November 3, 2010, Frances' Funeral Service will be held at 3:00 p.m. in the Chapel of Memories in Wojcik's Funeral Chapel, 1020 Main Street @ Manitoba Avenue. In keeping with Mom's wishes, she will be brought home to be with Dad. It's all the simple things you've done that make our lives worthwhile, It's all the love you've shared with us and how you made us smile, It's how you brought us laughter every time we were down, Life was so much easier just having you around. Though your presence is gone forever and your hands we cannot touch, Still we have so many memories of the one we loved so much. Your memory is a keepsake, with which we will never part, God has you in His keeping; we have you in our hearts. Rest in Peace Mom...Free of Pain... We Love You So Much.

I miss you so much Mom. By now you should with Dad who left us on November 11th. Now I have two angels 💙 in heaven. It was such a shock the day Dad left to be with you. He always said he wanted to be with his wife. I hope you both are happy being back together. I am going to miss both of you for the rest of my life. My heart is broken again and I don’t think it will ever mend. I love you both so very much and will grieve forever. Rest in Paradise Mom and Dad xoxo - Posted by: Diana (Daughter ) on: Dec 07, 2024

Hi grandma, I am not sure if you remember me as we did not spend that much time together. Somehow you still appear in my thoughts. My dad always tells me the story of you watching one of my first hockey games. I was still learning how to skate properly so I would slam into the boards to stop myself. I laugh when I think about you witnessing me play hockey like that. My dad told me you thought I looked hilarious. I wrote a song about that memory. It will be released on my band's next album. Every time we play that song live, I think about you and my dad. Thank you for being in life. Your memory lives on through me and whoever comes after me. I wish I could have spoken to you more, but I know that you are looking after me in some way or another. - Posted by: Sky Parenteau (Grandchild) on: Sep 24, 2023

HAPPY BIRTHDAY in heaven Mom. Missing you never goes away but it gets easier. My tears still flow but not as bad. Your new great-granddaugher would have loved you very much. She has curly hair and she just reminds me of you. The things she does makes me wonder if you are inside her. She will be three in July. Your other two grandkids are both 10 now. They are growing up so big. You would be proud of them. We are all doing well. Dad is doing good too. He kisses your picture every day before he goes to work. Still wish you were here! Love you always and forever xoxoxoxoxox - Posted by: Diana (Daughter) on: Apr 29, 2020

Well Mom it's been 6 years now since you have been gone. We all still think of you and miss you just like yesterday. Your puppy dog Josh is getting old. He's walking in circles now and he's blind and deaf. We have to stop him from turning so he can eat. He's one smart dog still even though he's 17 years old. He's still doing his thing outside so no worries about him not being able to control himself. He needs to be carried outside and carried inside though. He can't go by the stairs because we are worried that he will fall down them. We are taking very good care of him for you like you wanted. He has a little friend keeping him young and he seems to enjoy that but I think he will be joining you sometime soon. That will break my heart again for another thing of yours to be gone. Dad is doing good. He's still the same. But then again you always knew he would never change. He's just real sad. You are forever in our memories and forever in our hearts. I will never ever forget about you Mom. I hope that you are resting in peace with no more pain and no more worries. Until we meet again. May God hold you in the palm of his hand! - Posted by: Diana (Daughter) on: Oct 27, 2016

Well Mom it's been five years since you were taken from us. You great-grandchildren are growing so big. They know who their great-grandma is. You would be so proud of them. I wish you were here to know them but I'm sure you are watching. You also have another great-grandchild that was born this year. Your youngest son is a grandfather. Everyone is doing well. Your oldest son and grandchildren are doing good. You would be so proud of them too. We all wish you were still here to be with Dad. Josh is still strutting around but is partially blind so he bangs into things a lot. He walks around a lot .... like he's looking for you - Posted by: Diana Parenteau Brown (Daughter) on: Nov 28, 2015

We all miss you very much Mom. It was a tough Thanksgiving weekend without you. This Sunday will be you and Dad's 46th wedding anniversary. You should have still been here. Not a day goes by that we don't think about you and how we lost you. We still say that it should never have happened that way. But we can never change the past. You are always and forever in our hearts ... Love Diana & Doyle, Harlee (Michelle & Cassius), Vikkie (David & Kassidee), Brandon and your puppy Josh and husband Stan xoxoxoxoxoxoxo - Posted by: Diana Parenteau-Brown (Daughter) on: Oct 09, 2012
