The family announces with great sadness the peaceful passing of Gabrielle Dubé (née Desrochers) surrounded by her guys and family on Monday June 3, 2019 at the Timmins and District Hospital. She was predeceased by her parents Clara and Gerard Desrochers, her husband Louis Dubé (1996) and by her daughter Carole Dubé (2018). Loving mom to Diane (Serge) Gagné, Jean-Louis Dubé, Lucie (Roger) Millette, Yvon (Brenda) Dubé and Marc (Jackie) Dubé. Gabrielle was mémère to 13 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren and was a special matante to many nieces and nephews. Gaby was fortunate to have her special friend André Lamothe in her life. Gabrielle owned and operated Timmins Upholstery with her husband Louis for years and continued sewing from her home. She was well known in her community and recognized for her volunteer work with many organizations including the Lord's Kitchen, Les Filles d'lsabelle and the Timmins Senior Centre. She was an avid bowler at Midtown. Gabrielle was most famous for her meat pie sales, her eggrolls and her baking. She received wonderful care at the Sudbury Cancer Centre and the Hospice at the Timmins and District Hospital. Heartfelt thank you’s to Kaitlyn Hensen in Sudbury and Chrissy Barbuto in Timmins. A very special thank you to Gaby's grandson, Serge Gagné Jr. for his unconditional care and the laughters he shared with his gramma. In lieu of flowers, remembrance donations to the Timmins and District Hospital Foundation/Hospice would be greatly appreciated. A committal graveside service will be held on Thursday June 6, 2019 at 1 pm at Timmins Memorial Cemetery. Funeral arrangements and cremation has been entrusted with LESSARD-STEPHENS FUNERAL HOME.
