Lucienne was predeceased by her parents, Omer and Georgina (Genereux) Bisson, her brothers, Antonin, Stan, Omer, Aime, her sisters, Alice, Marguerite and Louise-Anna and her grandson, Richard Nicolas. Our beloved mother will be fondly remembered in so many ways. We know the deep bond of love there was between her and Dad. She was so faithful in visiting him and ensuring he was receiving the best care. Her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren were her source of pride and joy. Throughout her life, Mom enjoyed crafts and gardening; she loved playing the piano when she could, but her passion was her relationship with her family. Each one of us is enriched because of it, and that love is etched forever in our hearts. Though your smile is gone forever And your hand we cannot touch We will never lose your memory Because we loved you much Thank you for the life and love you gave us The happy times we shared We know that when you left us You knew how much we really cared A legacy of love is what you leave To comfort us as we grieve Reflecting on the memories of the past The love you gave will always last. It broke our hearts to lose you When your golden heart stopped beating, Youve gone on before us to heaven And one day well find you there waiting A special thank you to the Home Care workers and Staff at the Villa Youville, and the staff at Ste Anne Hospital. Services will be held Wednesday, May 12, 2:00p.m. at the Ste. Anne Roman Catholic Church, with viewing half an Hour Prior to the service.
