ROSELLE LAROCQUE August 28, 1941 - September 20, 2007 It is with great sadness that the family of Roselle Larocque announces her passing on September 20, 2007, at the age of 66 after a courageous battle with cancer. Roselle was born August 28, 1941, in San Clara, MB, to Florence Morriseau and David Larocque. She came to Vermilion Bay in 1962 where she met and married Walter Taylor. She had many hobbies, which included sewing, volunteering, and she was a wonderful cook. Her home was her pride and joy, and making it a comfortable place was most satisfying for her. Her greatest accomplishments included being a wonderful grandmother to Steven and Stacie, and caring for her youngest son Rory. Rory would not have had the life he had, had she not been there to make sure of it.
