AGNES (MCGRATH) BUISSON It is with the utmost sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our precious little Mom, Agnes Buisson (nee Rouire), at Actionmarguerite (Foyer Valade), on Friday, February 6, 2015 at 98 years of age. Left to mourn her passing are her eight children, Margaret, Lawrence (Eleanor), Annette (Tony), Patricia, Bernadette (Bob), Norman (Pierrette), Gerald (Marlene), and Lynne (Barry). Also mourning her loss are 16 grandchildren, 35 great-grandchildren, and nine great-great-grandchildren. Mom was predeceased by her first husband, Hugh McGrath, her second husband Arthur Buisson, sons-in-law Raymond Tessier, Louis Trudeau and Maurice Hebert, daughter-in-law Faye McGrath, grandson Larry Tessier, and twin great-granddaughters Eva and Vanessa Saurette. Even though she was a petite woman, there was not much she couldn't do. At the age of 96 she still managed to knit a beautiful blanket for her latest great-grandchild. She was a doting mother, always putting the needs of others before her own. A Wonder Woman she truly was! Mom wanted to ensure we made special mention of two friends, Dean and Asmir, and also Gabrielle Desaulniers who was very special to her. The family would also like to thank the staff at Foyer Valade for the compassionate care given her during her stay. We will never forget that. Funeral services will be held in the St. Denis Roman Catholic Church of Haywood, MB on Wednesday, February 11, 2015. Memorial service at 10:30 a.m., Funeral Mass at 11:00 a.m. followed by family interment in the Parish Cemetery with Father Alain Guenou officiating. All are invited to join the family for a lunch in the parish hall following the service. In lieu of flowers, if friends so desire, donations can be made to The Arthritis Society, Manitoba/Nunavut Division Office, #105 - 386 Broadway, Winnipeg, MB R3C 3R6. Adam's Funeral Home of Notre Dame de Lourdes, Manitoba in care of arrangements. Phone 248-2201 or 1-888-400-2326. www.afh.ca To our Mom who was the best In our hearts you'll always be It is now time for you to rest From pain and suffering you are now set free "Fly little white dove fly - we will love you always"

I have so many wonderful memories visiting ma tante Agnes and mon oncle Arthur with Therese, Joe, and Rene. Though I didn't see them often they always made me feel so loved and welcome. My deepest sympathy to all the family. - Posted by: Joanne Farmer (Niece-in-law) on: Feb 18, 2015
