Lorenza will be lovingly remembered and sadly missed by her children, Lionel (Carol) Lussier, Claudette (Paul-Emile) Labossiere and Claire (Normand) Mabon; grandchildren, Ryan (Shawna), Chad (Sara) and Kyle Lussier, Jeremie (Tanya), Jolene (Daniel) and Amanda Labossiere, Nathalie (Philippe), Melissa, Lise (Daniel) and Philip Mabon and her special great-grandchildren, Mikayla, Quinn and Victoria; her sisters, Maria Landry, Anna Dupuis; her brothers, Donat Lavallee and Romeo (Odile) Desorcy and numerous nephews and nieces. Lorenza married Firmin Lussier November 16, 1945 and lived on the farm in Mariapolis until 1971 when they moved to town. Mom was the ideal mother and farm wife, she worked countless hours along side Dad. She became an extraordinary cook for her family and later her cherished grandchildren. She loved spending time with her friends at the friendship centre, bingo every week but knitting was her passion. She especially loved family gatherings with children, grandchildren, brothers and sisters. She was predeceased by her husband of 49 years Firmin; an infant child, her parents, Charles and Mathilde Lavallee; her brothers-in-law Adrien Dupuis, Edmond Landry and sisters-in-law, Camilla Lavallee and Suzanne Desorcy and numerous other brothers and sisters-in-law on her husband's side.
