GEORGETTE MARIE MITCHELL nee LAROSE

With deep sorrow and sense of loss, our family announces the peaceful passing of our mother, Grandmother, and Great Grandmother, Georgette, on August 21, 2024.

Mom was the 6th child of 11 children born to Jerald and Yvonne Larose in Dryden, Ontario.  She worked as an LPN until she met our Dad who worked for the CAF.  They traveled to many places due to work assignments in Canada & abroad, US, Bermuda, Inuvik, Holberg, BC to name a few, before settling down in Kamloops.  Mom was very busy raising her 5 kids but eventually went back to work as a Care Aide at Ponderosa Lodge for another 15 years before her retirement. Family was always her number one priority and her pride and joy.  Later becoming a loving  grandma to many and great grandma (Nana) to 5 five more.

She will be forever remembered by her Children, Joanne, Lisa (Gino), Cheryl (Mark), George, and Natalie (John).  Her Grandchildren, Ashleigh (Kevin), Quinton, Bryce, Zachery, Jarod, Jacob, Joshua, Jaden. Her Great Grandchildren, Aliyah, Brooklynn, Jasmine, Mitchell and Lucas.  She is also survived by her sister Gisele and Brother Jacques, as well as many other relatives, too many to name.

Mom is now reunited with our dad, Edward, her little dog Rocky, and many other predeceased friends and family.

Mom loved all her Family to the fullest and was kind to all those who knew and met her.  She loved Gardening, flowers and outings to the markets, for coffee and road trips.

Cremation took place at the Kamloops Funeral Home.  As per the request of our mom, there will be no service.

Our family wishes to express our gratitude to numerous Doctors/ Nurses/ Caretakers/ Staff,  at Royal Inland Hospital and Kamloops Hospice.

    What a beautiful and ‘true to her’ obituary in honor of your Mom…. She was truly a lovely person who will be sadly missed by so many…. I remember visiting you guys when the kids were little and Joanne and Lisa too (I believe) babysat them while we went out for a night on the town with MaTante Georgette and Uncle Ed…they were so much fun to be around….. hugs to all of you and my deepest condolences and love to all 5 of you.

    I remember seeing her at my grandfathers store in Lac Ste-thérèse, Ontario. When she came to visit my grandmother Yvonne Larose-Gratton, she used to come to our home with her husband Eddy. I wish to offer my condolences to all members of her family.
