Grace Fournier (née Doucet) passed away on September 15th at the age of 91. She will be dearly missed by her children, Susan and Michael (Anne), former son in law Gary McCarragher (Angela) and lovingly remembered as “Nanny” by her grandchildren James, Erin, Patrick, Victoria, Sophie and great-grandson, Thomas. Grace is survived by her siblings Gerard Doucet (Jackie), Ronald Doucet (Paula), Cletus Doucet (Anne Marie), Ettie McManus (Ray), Alvin Doucet (Charline), Alice Arbour and David Doucet. She was predeceased by siblings Howard Doucet and Elsie Kane and brothers-in law Bernie Arbour and Donald Kane and sisters-in law Peggy Doucet and Doreen Doucet.

Grace’s family was her greatest treasure. She was not only a wonderful mother but also a cherished grandmother, imparting wisdom and joy to her grandchildren. Her legacy of unconditional love will leave a lasting impact on the countless lives she touched with her great sense of humor and compassion. Born in Bathurst, New Brunswick, Grace’s empathy and desire to help others blossomed early in her life as she pursued a career in nursing, later transitioning to teaching. After marrying Bob, their early years were filled with many moves until they finally settled in Lachine, where she lived for 56 years. Grace dedicated many years to volunteering for Lachine Youth Soccer and was an active member of the former Resurrection of Our Lord Parish. An avid card player, she loved her weekly games with her card group friends.
