Obituary of Valencia M. Martel

– Val would like to let you know that her work here is done. She received her call, a sort of an offer you can’t refuse, for an appointment from which she will not be returning.  This assignment comes with a huge sign-on bonus, a reunion with family and friends she has not seen in a long time.  Predeceased by her parents Napoleon Martel and Regina LaRouche and brothers Paul, Edward (Ida), Donald (Georgina), Edmond and sisters Pauline, Blanche, Beatrice, Aline and Rhea. Dear mother of Gloria (Herb), Jeannine (Tony) and Edward (Cindy).  Memere of Alain (Lisa), Tania (Larry), Marc (Amy), Tamie, Jason (Michelle), Joey, Lisa (Josh), Aimy and Julie.  Great grandmother of Austin, Matara, Benlee, Madeleine, Abby, Charlie, Ella, Liam, Azaria, Jaxun, Brooklyn, Tori, Emily, Alexa and Nathan.  Great great grandmother of Bryce.  Her furry grand dogs Rocky and Maya.  Val will be missed by her special nieces Debbie, Danielle, Janet, Darlene, Coleen, Cheryl-Lynn, Paula and many other nieces and nephews.  At Val’s request there will be a private family visitation.  Memorial donations to the Alzheimer Society would be greatly appreciated.  A special thank you to the staff of the Ontario Finnish Resthome for their care and love shown to our mother.
