In Loving Memory of
Elaine Boisjoli
June 17, 1953 - September 18, 2024
With a huge hole in our hearts and lives, we announce the sudden passing of Elaine Boisjoli on September 18, 2024 at the age of 71 years.
Elaine, formerly of Barrhead, leaves behind her husband Gerry, her daughter and best friend Loreen Gomes, son-in-law Mike Gomes, grandchildren Talia (her angel), Teagan (her super star) and Tanner (who could always make her laugh). Her family, of St Albert, will carry on her legacy and memories.
She was predeceased by her dad Peter Oskoboiny in 2008 and mom Elsie Oskoboiny in 2020. She is survived by her siblings Gary Oskoboiny of Barrhead and Danny (Vi) Oskoboiny and family of Blue Ridge.
Elaine Boisjoli…
Loving, caring and generous to a fault. Loves flowers, famous for her cooking and taking care of her family. Feels compelled to give and give, anxious when she is the centre of attention, joy filled in celebrating holidays and birthdays. Sends leftover food or meals with family and friends, buys too many Christmas presents, always picks up the phone when Loreen or Talia call. Loved to see sunshine in May, her famous garden bloom in July and her grandchildren grow and blossom into adults through the years. Shared her time, love, gardening and cooking advice with family and friends. Is intelligent, hardworking, creative and humble. A tremendous daughter, a super wife, perfect mom, thoughtful sister, extraordinary Gram and friend.
As Elaine never liked being the centre of attention, in lieu of a celebration of life, the family asks that you remember her in prayer with joy and loving hearts.
If you would like, in lieu of flowers, please make a donation to a charity of your choice.
