Délima Duplessis

February 17th 2015

Four years since you left us for a painless world. The thought of being with you tomorrow is what gives us the strength to go on today... We still miss you and your loving smile. But, when we miss you, we don't have to go far, we just have to look inside our hearts because that's where we'll find you. We know you can feel our tears, they keep pouring, just like our love for you. We take comfort in getting lost in memories of you and knowing you're watching over us.

Your husband Elias, daughters Corinna and Solange, grandchildren Jenny Gabrielle, Josée and Annie

Gilles Cormier

Cormier, Gilles
In memory of my son in law Gilles who passed away 5 years ago on Febuary 17, 2014.

God saw you were getting tired,
And a cure was not to be,
So He put His arms around you,
And whispered, “Come with Me”.
With tearful eyes we watched you suffer,
And saw you fade away,
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.

Sadly missed by Lillianne Gauvin and family

LEBLANC, ROMÉO E. - In loving memory of a wonderful husband, father and grandfather who passed away on February 17, 2015.

Life is busy and time flies by but one thing remains constant, memories of you. Keep watching over us from heaven.

Marjorie Coholan

– In loving memory of Marjorie Coholan who passed away seven years ago today, February 16, 2012.

A thousand times we needed you.
A thousand times we cried.
If love alone could have saved you,
You never would have died.
A heart of gold stopped breathing,
Two twinkling eyes closed to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove,
He only took the best.

Never a day goes by that you’re not in our hearts and souls.
Always loved and sadly missed, CHILDREN MICHAEL, DAUGHTER–IN–LAW PAT, SON–IN–LAW JOE, GRANDCHILDREN, GREAT–GRANDCHILDREN and FAMILY

Arleen Brawley

13 Jan 2019

With deep gratitude, the Sisters of Charity of the Immaculate Conception acknowledge the many expressions of support, sympathy, presence and prayer given us in the recent death of our Sister, Arleen Brawley.

To the staff of Ruth Ross Residence, St. Vincent Residence, the medical persons who listened and affirmed her wishes, to Father Jim McQuade who journeyed with her, and to the many Sisters, Associates and friends, near and far, who loved her, we say “Thank you!”

Arleen taught us so much in how she accepted her illness, choosing to live each day with a grateful, loving heart. We might hear her echo the following quote:

“I want to say something to all of you who have become a part of the fabric of my life….

….When the time of our particular sunset comes our thing, our accomplishments won’t really matter a great deal.

But the clarity and care with which we have loved others will speak with vitality to the great gift of life we have been for each other.”

(Gregory Norbet, Weston Priory, “Wherever You Go.”)
