Lise was a wonderful, delightful, loving sister in law. She was devoted to her husband and to her children, grand children and great grand children. Her family was always first. She loved all of us and always treated us like her family to. We will always think of her with love; we will miss her very much. May God bless her loving family.

Dear Claire, Suzy, Paul & Robert,

Lise was the quintessential wife, homemaker, Mother, Grand/Great-Mother. Her whole being evolved around caring for her family, and those fortunate to be within her circle of life.

She and I, occasional, would take day trips driving to towns throughout CT that we had never been. It was always a fun time as we were never at a loss for words, and we enjoyed much laughter.

After a nice lunch, we would scout out to see what the town offered, and then we explore. Any shop or boutique we shopped in she would always seek out a unique or fun gift that she would purchase for a family member. I can’t recall an item that she ever purchased for herself.

Lise possessed a great sense of humor, much dignity and a strong faith/love of God.

She will be missed and remembered by all, especially me.

My wife and I knew Lise through a professional relationship that grew into a friendship, though we have not seen her for a number of years. She was a wonderful woman, full of life and always smiling. She was truly a lady of grace and the world will be a sadder place without her. We are so sorry she suffered as she did. We can personally attest that family was most important to her. Please accept our sincerest condolences of her loss.

So sorry to hear about the passing of your beloved Mom Lise. I worked with Lise for many years at LBG, and always enjoyed her company. She was a beautiful person inside and out. Our thoughts and prayers are with your whole family during this difficult time.

I met Lise in Windsor CT. many years ago when we belong to the St-Gabriel Church and with the Women's Club ,often rambling in french and english. She was a dedicated friend, a classy Lady and a wonderful loving woman. She was born and lived very close to where I grew up near Montreal /St-Hyacinthe , it would give us some inside jokes ....... I am so sorry to hear she has passed but she will be with Marcel for eternity. I am sending my love and prayers to all of you. Aurevoir Lise!

Claire, Suzy, Paul and Robert,
When I think of your mom, I remember her smile, her French Canadian accent and the beautiful cakes she would make- especially one she made for me on my 5th birthday.
You are all in my prayers.
Aunt Lise and Uncle Marcel can be eternally happy now that they are together again.
Lots of Love and God Bless, Dianne

Lise was a remarkable woman who has may talents. Her commanding love for her family was the center of her life. As family we had numerous get togethers and we all laughed and had great fun as a family. The volley ball games, pool parties, our annual get together at Cape Cod, just to name a few!
She had a hard time the last few years. Jeanine and I were happy to have sen her when she was in the home care facility in Windsor. When we walked in the family room she heard my voice and immediately stated" ROCH IS HERE!" We will miss her sense of humor and love. Rest in peace my dear. God bless you and may you be reunite her with Marcel forever.
Love:
Roch and Jeanine Girard
