Obituary of Henriette Fontaine

It is with extreme sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our Hero and Mother on Friday, July 12, 2013 at the age of 76 years. Henriette will be missed and lovingly remembered by her children, Lynne Tessier (Roger), Ronald Fontaine and Monique Grenier and dearly missed by her eight grandchildren Allie (husband Miguel Cure), Janique, Nikolas, Kristian, Joey, Tristan, Shanelle and Stephanie as well as her great-grandchild Lexi. She also leaves her siblings Lorraine Forest (Louis), Orile Morin, Gisele Comeau (Donald), Celine Carroll (Jim), Leonne McArthur (Brian) and Yolande Devlin and many nieces and nephews. Henriette will also be remembered with great love and admiration by her special friend Elva Martel and many other dear friends as well as the father of her children Paul. She was predeceased by her parents Joseph and Edmée Morin and infant brother Wilfred. Henriette spent most of her life serving the public at the National Bank of Canada in St. Pierre Jolys. She was a strong and loving person and devoted her life to her family and friends. She took great pleasure in volunteering to help and doing things for others. She loved bird watching, doing crosswords and knitting mittens for charity. She was well known for her witty sense of humour and always faced any challenge with her head held high. The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the doctors, nurses and staff of Bethesda Hospital in Steinbach and the Health Sciences Centre for the care and compassion given to their mother as well as to all family and friends for your support during this difficult time. Funeral services will be held at the St. Pierre Roman Catholic Church on Tuesday, July 23 at 2:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations in her memory may be made to the CancerCare Manitoba Foundation, 1160 - 675 McDermot Ave., Winnipeg, MB R3E 0V9.
