Rosalee Boudreau Obituary
Rosalee is survived by her adoring family, parents Mark Stephen Boudreau, Sr. and Jennifer (McElwain) Boudreau, brother Mark Stephen Boudreau, Jr., children Jayson Joshua Lavoie and Jasmine Rose Lavoie and their father Joshua Paul Lavoie of East Hartford, CT.
Although Rosalee's grandparents have also passed, her enormous family of aunts, uncles and cousins are devastated by her loss.
Rosalee will be missed by hundreds of people. Anyone who had the pleasure of knowing Rosie knew she was one of the kindest and brightest people in the world. She lived life to the fullest with many plans for the future, which were unfortunately cut short. Her final resting place will be at Cedar Hill Cemetery where her family will have a private service.
In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Jayson and Jasmine Lavoie Futures Fund at American Eagle Bank to ensure a home and education which will give Rosalee peace in heaven.

Dear Rosie, How is Heaven? We think about you a lot. Sometimes there seem to be signs that you are nearby, a bird is watching or a song plays. Your family is doing our best to nurture your precious, talented, sweet kids. Life will never be the same for us without you, we honor your memory. And if you are in the trees, or the breeze, and the sunshine, we’ll be saying hi from here on earth. Love, Auntie Mary

Dearest Rosalee,
I miss you so very much
I miss your eyes and your smile and your voice and your style
I miss being with you and
seeing you
I miss playing games,shopping,
going to parks and beaches,
sports,concerts,coloring,painting
and crafting,cooking,watching
movies and laughing
I miss singing with you and
walking and talking with you
I miss hugging and kissing you
I don´t know how I can exist
without you
Did you know how much I love
and adore you?
How much I wish I could do more with you?
I cherish the memories that we had
Hold on to the piece of my that you have, until we are together again, I will be deeply sad
I love you eternally,
Mom

Our daughter Rosalee was born a rosebud. A little baby with glowing cheeks, she brought true happiness to our family.
She blossomed into a little girl always laughing with her little brother Mark. Together they rode bikes, played badminton and hide n seek. They learned how to swim and rollerblade. They played on soccer, basketball, and baseball teams. Rosie branched out to Girl Scouts and drumming. Drumming was one of Rosies favorite things, she played in 3 bands. We love hearing her tell us about playing at Disney World and how they offered her to work there after high school!
Rosie bloomed into a lovely little lady with a passion for music and singing. She was always enthusiastic and nice to all.
In full bloom, Rosalee was a heirloom rose, the most gorgeous of all the roses. She was the very best daughter,sister,cousin and friend. Mostly she was a wonderful mother.
Rosie´s beautiful radiant face, glowing smile, hearty laugh and angelic voice will never be forgotten.
I hope to hug you again and sing with you in heaven, my bun bun!
Love always ,
Mommy

Rosie was my babysitter when I was younger. She always made sure my brother and I were having fun. Wether it was taking walks around the neighborhood, going to the beach, watching movies, or going to the park. She always had a smile on her face and she was always so incredibly kind and sweet and caring and bubbly. My condolences and prayers for her family and friends.

I used to baby sit you and little Marky when you are about Jayson & Jazzy’s age. You were always such a happy go lucky little girl.
You had an old soul, a love for life and making people smile. Always always were you smiling. That smile will be Imbedded in my mind and heart forever. You had a sincere care for everyone in your life.
You grew up and began a life of your own. Years apart we were 14 years older than you and I am so very glad and grateful that we reconnected years
We had some great happy hours, ladies night, and random paint nights at my place. We never got the chance to do the kids paint day but I promise to make that happen.
We had some deep and private convos at times and I’m glad we stayed in touch. Your Eulogy was spot on. Never could you say no. You rescued many when they needed a shoulder to cry on without any hesitation. The hurt cuts deep.you were taken too soon.
But God had a better plan for you and now you are reunited with our lost loved ones. God has gained an Angel.
You are terribly missed and so very loved. May you rock heaven and rest in peace. Say hello to the family. Until we meet again

Eulogy for Rosie
Cedar Hill Cemetery, Saturday, February 11, 2023
I had the great pleasure of being Rosie’s Aunt Sally, her mother Jennifer’s oldest sister. When I would come up to Marlborough from New York City to visit the Boudreaus for the holidays, Christmas and Easter, Rosie and her younger brother Marky would put on shows for me that they spent hours rehearsing and dressing up for. These silly shows that the kids took so seriously in their made-up costumes would be one of the great joys of my life.
Sometimes when I visited, I’d ask Rosie what she’d done that day. She’d say, rode my bike, went swimming in the lake, roller-skated, played badminton, went to Emily’s, all in one afternoon. She was a girl with boundless energy and enthusiasm for life who said yes to everything.
When she was a teenager, I tried to give her what we called "no" lessons. It was a game in which I’d ask her a question, will you do this for me? or do you want to do that? to encourage her to say no. The joke was that she found it impossible to even say the word. She was a girl who always said yes. And as she grew older, this inability to say no could be a problem.
Rosie remained a wide-open, big-hearted, and generous person and she will live in all of our hearts as we remember her that way.
But let’s not just keep Rosie in our hearts. Let’s keep Rosie on our shoulders. Let Rosie be the voice that reminds us that we are fragile and vulnerable and that we can break each other's hearts.
Let Rosie be the voice that asks us to be kinder and more gentle to each other. More trustworthy and honest. Rosie will remain in our hearts but her legacy can be more than that. Let’s keep Rosie on our shoulders as the angel who reminds us to be our best selves.
Thank you all for honoring our beloved Rosie.

Dear sweet Rosie, today would have been your birthday. It is so heartbreaking to know you are no longer with us on Earth! If anyone deserves to go into the beautiful heavens it would be you. You will be missed dearly by your family and true friends. Rosie you had the best combination of both of your parents personalities. Just like your mom, you were so kind, so patient, loving and very protective.Like your Dad, you were loving, strong, with a wonderful sense of humor and also very protective. With this large family comes many losses. In between the sad losses, there is also much happiness, and love that not all families share like your family does. Rosie, you were always there with your welcoming warm smile. Anyone that was ever lucky enough to meet you, would certainly agree that you had a way of making everybody feel so special! Our hearts go out to your parents, Markie, and your children. Your children will never forget how special their mommy was to everyone lucky enough to have known her. Rosie, like auntie Sharon said "dance with the angels". I will add to that drum with the best of them! We send our love from here to the heavens. Aunt Kim and uncle Troy.

I send all the love in my heart and my soul to Mark, Jennifer, and Mark Stephen.
"But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.
"Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him. [Matthew 24:32-44]

Rosalee was a sweet bundle of joy who grew into a beauty. Her honest smile, sparkling eyes and magnetic personality attracted many different types of friends. Rosie's true friends respected her. The family adored her. She wrote wonderful cards and thank you notes that I saved through the years.
Now, she takes her place among the stars in heaven way too soon. Rosalee will be watching over her children and she will stay in the hearts and minds of all of those people who had a role in her life.
Our hearts are broken by this untimely tragedy.
Rosie, we miss you.
Prayers go out to her loving parents, her brother, and her sweet, innocent children.
Love, Auntie Mary

Jason and Jasmine both attended the after school program that I ran at their elementary school. I had the pleasure of getting to know Rosalee and her wonderful children over the past few years of working with them. Rosalee was one of the nicest, most attentive parents I ever encountered, we always found ourselves chatting it up at pick up. Jason and jazzy would get so excited every time she was there to pick them up and they would run into her arms (or try to beat each other to the car ). She was the type of parent who always asked them how their day was and greeted them with so much love. Sending Jason, jazzy, Josh and the rest of her family so much love and strength during these difficult times. I´ll never forget Rosalee´s beautiful smile, Forever In our hearts.

As one of Rosie's teachers in elementary school, I was deeply saddened when reading of her passing. Such a vibrant, young life ended far too soon. Rosie, at age 11 in fifth grade, was a fun-loving girl, had a perpetual smile on her face, and was everyone's friend. I send my sincere condolences to her family. Mrs. Bourbeau
