Lacroix, Sylvia (nee Lefebvre)

It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Sylvia Lacroix, 78 years, on Thursday, April 5, 2018, at Health Sciences North. Born in Sudbury to the late Michel and Marie-Jeanne (nee Sabourin) Lefebvre. Predeceased by her husband Emile Lacroix. Loving mother of Michelle Gaudaur (John), Denise Lacroix and Robert Lacroix (Tracey McAuliffe).

Beloved sister of Theresa Anthony (Lawrence), Rene (Leona) both predeceased, Jean Paul (predeceased) (Pauline), Mariette Robineau (Geatan, predeceased), Edmond (predeceased), Richard (Anita) and Bernard (predeceased). Sadly missed by many nieces, nephews, relatives and friends. Sylvia worked for Sears for many years, retiring after the closing of the warehouse. She was a member of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 76, where she enjoyed playing cards and socializing. Sylvia's children and grandchildren meant everything to her. She was blessed with family members and very close friends that she held dear. They were all a big part of her life. The family would like to express their sincere appreciation to the doctors, nurses and support staff at Health Sciences North and St. Joseph's Continuing Care Centre, the amazing staff at The Walford on the Park retirement residence and the NE LHIN for the excellent care and overwhelming support they provided. As per Sylvia's wishes, there will be no visitation. A Celebration of her Life will be held at a later date. Donations to the NEO Kids Foundation would greatly be appreciated www.neokidsfoundation.ca.
