Marguerite Bosse Obituary

Marguerite "Margaret" M. (Allaire) Bosse, also known as "Auntie", 98, formerly of Worcester, died peacefully on Thursday, July 31, 2008 in Holden Nursing Home. Her husband, Leo P. Bosse, died in September of 1985. She leaves a nephew, Edward L.

Margaret was born in St. Ours, Province of Quebec on December 11, 1909, and was the daughter of Charles and Aloysia (Fredette) Allaire. She was predeceased by five brothers and three sisters. She lived in Jefferson for 35 years before moving to Worcester in 1960. She worked for various woolen miles and was an avid bowler playing in leagues for many years. She was a lover of animals especially her beloved cat, Sue-Sue, her longtime companion. Margaret will be missed by so many people and was a friend to many.

Margaret's family would like to thank Dr. Janet Abrahamian for all the love and compassion she received while in her care. A special thanks also to the entire staff of Holden Nursing Home for their excellent care where Margaret was treated with compassion, love and dignity.

Relatives and friends are invited to attend a Mass of Christian Burial at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, August 5th, in St. Mary's Church, 114 Princeton St., Jefferson. Burial will follow in St. John's Cemetery, Worcester. At her request, there are no calling hours.

My deepest sympathy to your family for your recent loss. I met Margaret while taking care of Leo at UMMC many years ago. We kept in contact and everytime I would visit her she always had a smile. She always asked about my children and what was new in their lives. She was a pleasure to know, and I am grateful to have met such a wonderful person. She will be missed.

I took care of Marguerite at Holden and she was always smiling. She was my favorite little lady. I brought pictures of my cat to show her because I knew she liked cats. I will miss her terribly. I made it a point to make a visit to see how her day was going when ever I could. My thought and prayers go out to all her family and friends. She was a wonderfull person.
