May fond memories of your mom bring you comfort during this hard time in your life. Look back on all the good memories you were able to have and smile at the fact that you were able to share these before she passed away. You are in our thoughts. - Posted by: Michel Rossier (nephew) on: Feb 01, 2017

I met Gisele a few times through my sister Christine's friendship with Marilyne, where we'd get together to make perogies, perishke or spring rolls. If I was going to get in on the consumption end of things, I needed to take part in the production end. Those times were a lot of fun for me and Gisele was very fun to be around. She looked at my perogies and said, "He's making monsters!". She was right, I was making monsters. My condolences to the family and especially to Marilyne, who I know was very close with her Mom. - Posted by: Thomas Quinlan () on: Feb 01, 2017
