Marie Marthe Gosselin

Marie passed suddenly and peacefully on July 22, 2016. She is now reunited with the love of her life, her husband Raymond, and their infant daughter as well as other family members and friends. Left to cherish her memory are her daughters Karen and Lorraine (Marcel Magotiaux); sister Mary Anne Arnold; step-grandchildren Michelle Michaely (Rene and children Sawyer and Sage) and René Magotiaux (Suzy and children Owen and Drew); as well as her much loved nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews.

 Marie was born in Gravelbourg and lived there until Raymond’s passing in 2006, when she moved to Regina to be close to “the girls”.  She married Raymond, her childhood sweetheart, in 1947 and together they showed us what true love is. Marie enjoyed the rural way of life and took great pleasure in her large garden.  She was a hairdresser and truly enjoyed her long career.  Family and friends were important to Mom and held a special place in her heart to the end.  She greatly cherished every conversation and every visit.  She had a special gift for listening and understanding, and often said just the right thing at the right time.  Marie was a quiet, reserved person with an underlying sense of humor that sometimes surprised.

 Funeral Mass will be celebrated in Paroisse Saint-Jean-Baptiste, 2517- 25th Avenue, Regina, SK on Saturday, July 30 at 1:00 pm. Private family interment at a later date in Gravelbourg Cemetery. We would like to say a special thank you to Lorelei Fletcher and the staff at Selo Gardens Personal Care Home for the wonderful care and kindness provided to Mom since 2009. Memorial tributes may be made, in Marie’s memory, to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, 1738 Quebec Avenue, Unit 26, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan S7K 1V9 (www.heartandstroke.sk.ca).
