Mary-Ann Garand

Mary-Ann will be sadly missed by her loving husband of 36 years, Fern Garand, children Monique (Jeff), Monica, Arthur (Lauren), grand children Kyle, Sierra, Mackenzie, Matthew, Emily, Kain, and Avery, her special kids A.J., Alicia, Jessica, Brandy, Ryan, and Nelson as well as numerous nieces and nephews.

She was pre-deceased by her parents Clarence and Simone Desjarlais, mother and father in law, Achille and Adelaide Garand, and nephew Neil.

Mary-Ann worked previously as a nurse, HCA and also a palliative care nurse for over 20 years working out of 1001 Corydon Ave with the most amazing people she referred to as her second family. Her family and work meant everything to her as well as being an avid blood donor with 77 donations to date.

You've been our rock when we needed strength, our teddy bear when we needed hugs, our glue when we needed to be put back together and our map when we've lost our way, never did you judge and always let us know how much you loved us all.

To our wife, mother, mama, sister, cousin aunt, and friend, you will be forever missed and always in our hearts. May you rest in peace our beautiful angel.
