We are very deeply saddened to hear of Monique’s passing… She was always a wonderful and caring person, good friend and great neighbor… she will be missed.
To Allan & family, we offer our deepest condolences. Monique was my cousin. We grew up a few houses apart in St-Boniface, MB. We lost touch over the years but re-connected several times here in Calgary over the last few years. We were traveling and returned home to the news of her passing and her service announcement. We wish we could have attended.
