LOUISE MARCOUX (BRISEBOIS) (nee DAIGNAULT) On Monday, May 29, 2000 after a short and courageous battle with cancer, Louise Marcoux, age 91 years, passed away peacefully at the St. Boniface Hospital with her family at her side. Mom was born November 4, 1908 in Stony Mountain, MB. She resided in St. Boniface most of her life, where she met and married her first husband Bruno Brisebois and raised three daughters. Mom lived life to the fullest and was an active member of the Ladies Auxiliary, Norwood Legion. She loved to dance, play bingo and was an avid bowler. She married Armand Marcoux in 1974. Mom was a gentle natured woman with a magical sense of humour, that never failed her, even in her last days. She touched the hearts of all who knew her and was loved by everyone. She was the sunshine in our lives. She was predeceased by Bruno Brisebois in 1972; five sisters; two brothers, and son-in-law Pat McMahon in 1991. Mom will be lovingly remembered and forever cherished by her children, daughter Jeannette and husband Gaston Boulanger and their children, Claude (Angel), Marc, Monique, Michael and Robert; daughter Diane and husband Hugh Clark and their children, Greg and Glen; daughter Eveline McMahon and her children, Mona (Frank) Logullo, John (Angela) McMahon, great-grandchildren, John, Michael, Cassandra and Daniel, numerous nieces and nephews. Mom is also survived by her second husband Armand Marcoux, as well as her stepchildren; grandchildren and great-grandchildren and nieces and nephews who held a special place in her heart. She cherished her families. In keeping with Moms wishes a private family service will take place on Friday, June 2 at 10:00 a.m. from Green Acres Funeral Chapel. Cremation will follow the service. The family gratefully thanks everyone involved in Moms care and all the nursing staff on the Palliative Care Unit for the comforting words and acts of kindness.
