ERNESTINE PELLETIER "Ma Tante Fille" (nee MOUSSEAU) It is with sadness that the family announces the passing of our much loved mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend, on February 25, 2002 at the age of 89 years. Our mother was born and raised in Aubigny, MB. On August 15, 1945 she wed Henri Pelletier and moved to St. Boniface and raised three children. They then resided in St. Vital. In recent years various health problems slowed her down, but she never complained and continued to enjoy life to the fullest. She enjoyed her many years at the cottage at Bird River, gardening, playing cards and travelling, especially to Hawaii, and the love of her immediate and extended family. Ernestine was predeceased by her son Robert in October 1975, and her husband Henri in August 1995, five brothers and three sisters. Cherished and lovingly remembered by her daughters, Lynne and Claudette; daughter-in-law Ellen (Lou) beloved grandchildren, Joel and Lesley Gaudry; three brothers, Esdras, Maurice and Gerry Mousseau; her beloved sister-in-law Alice Clement who was always there for her. Thank you to Dr. Kevin Coates and St. Boniface Hospital 6A staff. Thank you to her homecare givers Violet, Peggy, Michelle and Brenda.
