DENISE LAFLECHE (MRS. HANCOX) July 23, 1930 - June 27, 2018 Peacefully on June 27, 2018, with her family holding her hand, Mom concluded her life path on earth. This path was filled with many adventures and experiences. As a child she was quite a tomboy and preferred to keep up with her brothers rather than play with dolls and girly things. She was a wife for 28 years, teacher for many years and after retirement became an LP nurse and then a Benedictine nun for 10 years, until at the age of 80 was proud to finally have her own apartment. Throughout these many careers she was still first and foremost a mother of six children, Jacqueline (Ray, deceased), Diana (Dennis), Ronald (Rose), Robert, Richard (Heather) and Lorraine, Nana of 10 grandchildren and great-Nana of two great-grandsons. Mom touched so many lives and certainly left our world a better place just by being part of it. We miss her dearly. The family would like to thank the staff at Riverview Health Centre for the care and respect given to Mom, also everyone who took the time to drop in for a visit. Mom really appreciated it. Funeral Mass and interment will be held 2:00 p.m., Friday, September 28, 2018 at St. Benedict's Monastery, 225 Masters Ave., West St. Paul, MB R4A 1A9. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to St. Benedict's Monastery or the charity of one's choice.
