Through her examples and her teachings, we learned to do good and to love God and others. After the children had all left home, she took employment at Eatons Bake Shop where she worked for 15 years until her retirement. Special thanks to Dr. Gobeil of Ste. Anne and to all the staff of the Villa Youville who took such good care of our mother for the past 21 months. God bless you all!!!
