Marietta Blanc

MARIETTA BLANC WAS BORN IN NOVEMBER 3, 1946 IN ST. LOUIS DU NORD, THE NORTHWEST SIDE OF HAITI. SHE WAS THE DAUGHTER OF MRS. ALTERMISE BEAUPLAN, BORN ALMONOR AND LEBLANC BEAUPLAN, BOTH DECEASED A FEW YEARS AGO. SHE PASSED AWAY ON SUNDAY, JUNE 28 OF THIS YEAR, FOLLOWING UNEXPECTED HEALTH CONDITIONS. SHE LEFT BEHIND SIX CHILDREN, ALONG WITH 15 GRANDKIDS AND A LOT OF FAMILY AND FRIENDS DEEPLY AFFECTED BY HER DEPARTURE. MARIETTA LEARNED VERY EARLY HOW TO WORK HARD. SHE FLEW IN THE EARLY ‘80S TO NASSAU, BAHAMAS TO FIND A BETTER OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE FOR HER CHILDREN; THIS IS ALSO WHERE SHE MET HER SOULMATE, NOW SPOUSE, MR. CIANY BLANC. THEN, SHE TRAVELED TO THE U. S., A FEW YEARS AGO, LOOKING FOR A BETTER LIFE. SINCE HER ARRIVAL, SHE WORKED TREMENDOUSLY HARD UNTIL HER LAST BREATH. SHE WAS A HARD WORKER. ALL WHO KNEW HER WELL CAN TESTIFY OF THAT. MARIETTA WAS ALSO A STRONG WOMAN WITH A FIRM CHARACTER; SHE WAS SWEET INSIDE, THOUGH. SHE LOVED ALL HER KIDS AND HER FAMILY. SHE WAS ALWAYS THERE TO HELP, NO MATTER HOW FAR SHE HAD TO GO, EVEN WHEN SHE HAD TO TAKE THE BUS. SHE WAS A SERVANT OF GOD AND A GOOD FRIEND WHOM YOU COULD COUNT ON. THOSE WHO KNEW HER COULD SAY SHE WAS RESERVED, NOT REALLY SHY BUT SHE WOULD TELL YOU THE TRUTH IN YOUR FACE IF SHE HAD TO. THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PART OF HER LIFE WAS THE DAY SHE ACCEPTED CHRIST AS HER SAVIOR. SHE GAVE HER TIME AND ENERGY TO THE SERVICE OF THE CHURCH. SHE WAS THERE FOR ANYONE WHO NEEDED HER. NOTHING ON EARTH CAN FILL THE EMPTY SPACE SHE LEFT IN OUR HEARTS. MAY GOD HELP US ALL! SINCEREST SYMPATHY TO YOU ALSO, FRIENDS OR ANYONE WHO CAME FAR, MAYBE TRAVELED TO BE WITH US TODAY, DESPITE THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT WE ALL KNOW. THE FAMILY TRULY APPRECIATES YOUR PRESENCE. MAY HER SOUL REST IN PEACE, AS SHE IS NOW WITH THE LORD. THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN. MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND BE SAFE!
