Marguerite Leroux Guimont

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Marguerite Leroux Guimont, which occurred at the CHRDL on Sunday, May 17, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family, just a few months before her 95th birthday.

Wife of the late Henri Guimont, she is survived by her children Suzanne (Jeff), Pierre (Chantal), and France (Sylvain), as well as her beloved grandchildren: Jessica, Alexandre, Josianne, Victor, Florence, Madeline, Marie-Soleil, Julie-Ann, Jeremie, and Jérémy.

Over the last decade, she also had the joy of welcoming her great-grandchildren: William, Boaz, AbbiGrace, and Zachary.

Aunt Marguerite was loved and cherished by her many nieces and nephews, with whom she made an effort to keep in regular contact and whose visits she deeply appreciated.

A woman of deep faith, Margot devoted long moments to prayer every day.

Margot will be fondly remembered by her friends and colleagues at the Diocese of Joliette, where she served as a pastoral worker and dedicated volunteer within the parish community of Notre-Dame-des-Prairies and the surrounding areas.

Her passing leaves a great void in the hearts of all those who knew and loved her.
