NARRAGANSETT - Vera (Thomson) Forcier 87, formerly of Narragansett and Woonsocket, passed away Saturday, May 28, in the St. Elizabeth Home. She was the wife of the late Roland Forcier whom she met while he was stationed in England, serving the US Air Force.

Vera was a former member of the St. Agatha Senior Citizens in Woonsocket and served as a volunteer for the Coast Guard Auxillary and was a devoted animal lover.

She is survived by her daughters Donna Theroux and her husband Dr. James Theroux of Narragansett, and Kim Morgado and her husband Ray of Swansea, MA, and her sister-in-law Jeanne Forcier of Woonsocket. She was also the mother of the late Garry Forcier.
