It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother on February 6, 2025.
She leaves to cherish her memory her children, Diane, Lorraine (Bruce), Jackie, Janet, Robert (Carlene), Pat (Dino); her grandchildren, Danielle, Joël, Jean-Paul, Kevin, Katie, Mitchell, Matthew, Kyle, Nicole, Mélanie, and Josée; and her great-grandchildren, Carter, Rémi, Éric, Nora, Isla, and Joëlle; her sisters, Lucienne Tougas and Patricia Lanovaz; special friend Firmin DeRiviere; and many dear nieces and nephews.
She was predeceased by her husband Ron DePape; her parents, Omer and Antoinette Tougas; her three brothers, Ulysse Tougas, Gérald Tougas, and Lionel Tougas; sisters, Cécile Tougas, Laurette Théberge, and Lucille St. Amant; her son-in-law Gil Laurendeau; and the father of her children Léo Vouriot.
Raymonde was born and raised in Ste. Anne, Manitoba. After Teachers’ college, she taught in Dufresne, Fort Garry and La Salle where she met and married Léo. The last 14 years of her career, Raymonde taught at St. Norbert Immersion School. She enjoyed working with young children and was always amazed at how eager her students were to learn. She had fond memories of those years and her students.
Summer weekends were reserved for camping and fishing. Raymonde and Ron explored different campsites in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Ontario. She always enjoyed bowling and dancing with her relatives and friends. Later, she returned to her passion for reading and word games. If you passed her condo door you could often hear laughter, animated conversation, and spirited competition. Raymonde said that those times were the most precious.
Raymonde was a strong, proud woman who lived her life with grace, integrity and a deep love for her family.
According to Raymonde’s wishes a private inurnment and Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in her memory to a charity of your choice.
