Estelle Lorraine Bolduc Morissette, 92, of Biddeford went to be with the Lord on April 15, 2025, leaving a legacy of love and faith that will always be cherished.
Estelle was born in Biddeford on September 7, 1932, to Arthur and Alphonsine (Collette) Bolduc. She was mother to Caryn, Michael, Diana and Leonard. She raised her children as a single mom with love and devotion in Biddeford.
Estelle held many jobs in life, but her favorite was being a mother and grandmother. She loved to visit and spend time with all of her family. Estelle enjoyed painting ceramics, finding solace and inspiration in the strokes of her brush. With a keen eye for detail, she excelled in the creative process. Although she loved painting, she delighted in giving her finished pieces away and offering them as tokens of her affection.
Estelle was a dedicated parishioner of Good Shepherd Parish all her life, a testament to her commitment and love for her faith community. Her faith was a cornerstone of her life. She was a humble intercessor. Firmly believing in the power of prayer and dedicating countless hours to quiet reflection, interceding for her family and friends. Her deep connection with her belief was a distinctive quality that set her apart, guiding her through life's challenges.
In her later months, Estelle faced health challenges that tested her strength, yet her spirit remained unshaken. Even during difficult times, she continued to pray and listen to the Father's heart, inspiring us all with her resilience. Her love for her grandchildren and "adopted" great-grandchildren knew no bounds and she always had a special place for them in her heart.
Estelle left this world with a heart overflowing with faith. We will forever remember her unwavering love for God and those around her. Though she was relocated to Heaven, her spirit lives on in our hearts. May we honor her memory by embodying the love, humility, and compassion that she so effortlessly shared.
Estelle was predeceased by her parents, sons Michael and Leonard, grandson Dustin Demers and sister Rita Morin and her husband Gerard.
She is survived by her daughters Caryn (Richard) Lambert of Biddeford and Diana (Benoit) Demers of Yulee, Florida. She is also survived by her grandchildren Jonathan (Angela Hines) Lambert of Biddeford, Justine Demers of Yulee, Florida, Joseph (Lorrin Province) Lambert of Hollis, ME, and Daniel (Kate McAfee) Lambert of Waterboro, ME as well as by her "adopted" great-grandchildren Aurora Hines and Leigham Puthoff. She is also survived by her sisters Priscilla Lessard and Violet Beaudoin of Biddeford, Helen (Ronald) Brouillette of Peach Tree City, Georgia and a brother, Clement (Marguerite) Bolduc of Saco, and many nieces and nephews.
Services will be held at St. Joseph's Church, Elm Street, Biddeford on May 9, 2025, at 1:00 pm and internment will be at St. Jospeh's Cemetery, West Street, Biddeford.
Arrangements are by Hope Memorial Chapel, 480 Elm Street, Biddeford, Maine. As per her wishes, there are no calling hours.
