Florence LEGAULT Obituary

Published by Vancouver Sun and/or The Province from Dec. 17 to Dec. 18, 2011.
LEGAULT, Mrs. Florence May (nee Livingstone) March 14, 1924 - December 13, 2011 Born in Stockton-on-Tees England For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. - John 3:16 The loving family of Florence May Legault is saddened to announce the passing of their dear Mother, Grandmother, and Great Grandmother. Florence passed away peacefully into the arms of the Lord, surrounded by her family that will always love her dearly. Florence was the longest living member of her family of seven from England, that all predeceased long before her. Those who knew Florence will remember the way she lived with elegance and grace. She is predeceased by her loving Husband Emery Joseph Legault (Jack) in 1993. Florence is survived by loving daughter Yvonne Francis nee Wilford and Alex Francis, grandchildren Michael, Darren, Melody and Leanne. Great grandchildren Dempsey, Emily, Nolan, Isaiah, Ayden, and Noah. Florence is survived by her loving son Kenneth and Kathy Legault, grandchildren Laune, Denise, Stacey, Kelly, Clara, Chris, Jonathon, and great grandson Levi and Lauren. She is survived by her loving daughter Denise and Don Schroeder, grandchildren Warren, Susan, Cynthia, Tim, Janeen, and Alex. Great grandmother to Sierra, Summer, Jimmy, Vance, Lyla, and Lexie. Mom arrived in Aldergrove in 1945 with 2 year old daughter Yvonne, a British War Bride leaving England to make a new life with her husband Jack. Mom and Dad lived in the Aldergrove/Abbotsford area for 66 years, and Mom was a long time member of the Royal Purple. She was a hard working mother, a wife of high integrity, a deeply faithful Christian, with a great passion for life. We all feel so blessed to been given such a loving person, that lived life with such liveliness and compassion. A special thank you to Dr. William Chan and staff for their wonderful care over the years, to sweet Claudia from the Nurse Next Door, the ladies from the Royal Purple in Aldergrove, Bev at Fraser Valley Health, and to Melinda and Carrie from MSA Hospital for the outstanding care you gave Mom in her final hours. As per Florence's request there will be no service, please send donations in lieu of flowers to the Canadian Diabetes Association. Have a cup of tea, a smile for Mom, and sing one of Florence's favourite hymns, Amazing Grace. This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24 Henderson's Funeral Home 604-854-5534

My brother, Dennis, has just let me know the very sad news. I too first met Auntie Florence when she stayed with my mother and father in the 1960's, I was surprised and delighted when having invited her to my wedding 16 years ago Auntie Florence arrived all the way from Canada. I will miss her even though we only met a few times, she was a lovely lady and made a great impression on me. My husband, John, and I send our condolences to all her family.

We have only just heard the sad news. Florence was my auntie a sister of my father Charles. I met her for the first time in the 1960s and then again about 14 years ago when she came over to England and stayed with my mother Megan. My condolences and sympathy to all her family, she was a lovely and very lively person, she was adored by our children.

We have so many good memories of Florence. Playing cards where she got you so confused that she would win. So much fun. If you weren't looking at her when she was talking, she would put her face right in your face to make sure you heard every word. So many good visits. She was like a Mother to me. Love you dearly Florence. Will miss you always. Rest in Peace my friend.
