VIVIENNE COLLETTE
(nee BOURGEOIS)
May 1, 1927 – August 4, 2021

After a brief illness, Vivienne passed away at Actionmarguerite St. Boniface, at the age of 94 years old.
She is survived by her children, Aurele (Patty), Solange (Gérald) Lapointe, Jacques (Heather), Luc (Jacqueline) and Louis (Marie); daughter-in-law Murielle Dyck; 14 grandchildren; 28 great-grandchildren; 2 great-great-grandchildren; brothers, Ernest and Maurice; sisters, Sr. Imelda and Sr. Solange; numerous nieces, nephews and in-laws. Vivienne was predeceased by Roland and son René.
Vivienne aimait beaucoup recevoir sa famille et ses amis pour les servir un repas somptueux. Personne ne pouvait partir de chez-elle avec les mains vides. Elle aimait partager son pain, ses ''cinnamon buns'', ses ''perogies'', ses cannages, les nombreux couvre-lits, ou quelque chose qu'elle avait tricoté. C'était dans sa nature de tout partager!
If there was anything that Mom enjoyed was receiving family and friends for a meal. No one could leave without a care package. It was probably her homemade cinnamon buns, bread (which was delicious and she was known for), perogies, canned food, handmade quilt or various knitted articles. She loved giving away the fruits of her labour.
Due to COVID restrictions, a service will be held in October, date to be determined.
Cremation has taken place.
The family wishes to thank the staff on 3DE for the care given to her at Actionmarguerite St. Boniface.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation in her name to the Manitoba Brain Association (204-825 Sherbrook St., Winnipeg, MB R3A 1M5, 204-975-3280, mbia.ca).
