Bourgault, Père Jean Legault and members of the CCAC staff including her nurse Sylvie Bourass, Helen Shank (Case Manager), Sandra Nicholson, RoseAnne Church and Amanda Sergerie as well as the staff at the West Nipissing General Hospital. One of our mother’s most cherished dreams was to remain in the home she had built with our father until the day came when our Lord was ready to bring her to heaven. There we believe she will once again be reunited with her beloved Marcel and her beautiful son, Ivan, as well as the many loved ones who have gone before. Donations to the West Nipissing General Hospital Foundation or the Heart & Stroke Foundation would be appreciated (cheques only).
