Bernadette Marie Paulin 1930 — 2020

Bernadette Marie Paulin

Our Beautiful Mom, Bernadette Marie (nee Thomas) passed away at the Overlander Personal Care Home in Kamloops, BC on Sunday, December 6, 2020 at 90 years of age. She is lovingly remembered by her children, Fernand (Linda), Laurent (Jackie), Gilles (Berthe), Jeremy (Missionary Priest in Madagascar), and Claire (John), Grandchildren Ryan (Angela), Jonathon (Megan), Chantal (Steve), Matthew (Jenny), Jamie, Madison & Mackenzie. Great Grandchildren, Damen, Garrett, Wyatt, Hunter, Mack, and Ruby.

Leaving behind Brothers and Sister; Arcade (Antonia),Antoine (Jeannette), Pierre (Claudette), Agnes and many nieces and nephews.

Mom was born in St-Isidore and was predeceased by husbands Romuald Morais and Edmond Paulin, son Reginald Morais and grandson Raynald Morais, three sisters Eugenie, Emerentienne, Clara, and three brothers Sylveste, Richard, Gerard.

Mom was very proud and always eager to help. She was very social and enjoyed get togethers with family and friends and loved to entertain at her home. There was always a place at her table and she  was loved by all that met her.

Mom was very proud to receive her 60 year pin with the Catholic Women’s League and was a member of the Women’s Auxiliary (Legion).Mom was so caring that it brought her to become a Home Care Worker for many years. She also took care of foster children, and for many years was a Mother to international high school students. Mom also spent much of her time visiting with the sick and shut-ins which brought her much peace.

A source of great joy to Mom was her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. She lived a long and faithful life. She loved her family without exception, always worried about them and always had them at the fore front of her life. Her faith will always be here in our hearts. What is left is that we continue her legacy of being a loving family always united as one.

 A loving Mother so gentle and kind, what a wonderful memory she left behind.
