It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Lucille Carrière (née Vandale) on Tuesday, November 26, 2024, at the age of 88. Lucille passed away peacefully with her family by her side at the Villa Youville in Ste. Anne, Manitoba.

Beloved wife, mother, sister, grandmother, great-grandmother, and great-great-grandmother, Lucille had an enormous heart and was devoted to her family who were always her priority.

Born in Hoey, Saskatchewan, Lucille moved to Manitoba to pursue her passion in education, and had a fulfilling career spanning over 38 years as a teacher, finishing at École Saint-Joachim in La Broquerie. In retirement, she enjoyed cruises, golfing, gardening, playing cards, and entertaining family and friends.

Moreover, Lucille was an active participant in her community. She was a board member at the Chalet Nursing Centre, and volunteered at the Bibliothèque de La Broquerie and the Paroisse Saint-Joachim. Despite her numerous medical hardships, Lucille remained optimistic and determined.

Lucille leaves behind a legacy of love and devotion, cherished by her husband of 68 years, Jean, her children Roland, Jeannine (Gilbert), Simone, Colette (Grant), Marc, and also Raven, Aaliyah and Jean who she raised as her own, as well as 10 grandchildren, 11 great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren.
