Bissonette, Helen Passed away in her 85th year at her home in Minett, surrounded by family on Sunday May 1. A kind and gentle woman, she was married for 49 years to the late Charlie Bissonette and was the much loved mother to Mike (Jacci), Carmen, Melvin (Cheryl), Vicky (the late Michael Lynn), Dale (the late Larry English), Kelly (Tim) and Lori (Murray). Daughter of the late Jeanie Beatty Allan and Culbert Gonneau. Sister to Francis (Theresa), Irene (Neil), Allan (Donna), and the late Barbara Campbell (Ed). Helen's greatest joy was being with her grandchildren Joey, Shannon (Derric), Nancy (Craig), Ashley (Andy), Myles, Rachel, Emily, Caroline, Liam, Aidan and Bronwyn and great grandchildren Landon and Jaxon. She gifted them with a wealth of memories, experiences and life lessons. A special place in her heart was reserved for her late grandson Justin. It was her wish that she be laid to rest at his side in the presence of her children and grandchildren. Expressions of sympathy can be made to the Children's Foundation of Muskoka. Helen lived a simple but rich life. She loved animals, whether it be the many dogs and cats she had over the years or those outdoors, especially the birds and the deer. She was at her finest gathering her family together, preparing the Sunday roast beef dinner and engaging in the commotion and hilarity that always ensued. We are all better for having had her in our lives. Messages of condolence can be made at www.reynoldsfuneral.com
