Jacqueline Rita Cuillerier

Today we announce the homegoing of Jacqueline Rita Cuillerier born on September 13,1940 in Kapuskasing, Ontario. She has left this temporary home we call earth to return to her true home with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

She was a loving mother to Daniel (Carolyn, predeceased), Michael (predeceased) (Pat), Richard (Predeceased), Gerald and Sandra (Lee).

Predeceased by her mother, Ida Legare and father, Honore Bedard, sixteen of her seventeen siblings and leaving behind her one living sister, Henriette Bedard.

She was an amazing grandmother to Jesse, Shane, Kayla, Shaena, Stephanie, Matthew, Gabriel and Benjamin. Predeceased by her grandson Christopher. She had twelve great grandchildren and two step great grandchildren.

Mom lived her life with love and grace. She instilled in her children and grandchildren to love, help others and forgive always. Her love was truly unconditional, no strings attached.

Her greatest joy in life was spending time with her family, having bonfires and roasting hot dogs and potatoes, sharing meals, playing games, to watching the grandchildren play sports and school plays when they were younger. Later in years it was to celebrating with them when they began having children of their own. Love is the most appropriate word describing who our mother was.

She brought joy to those around her with her lightheartedness and smile. She was fiercely tenacious having overcome numerous medical issues. Her faith carried her through life’s trials and tribulations. She always knew that she was never alone.

Mom will be fondly remembered as a loving, compassionate, tenacious, and supportive mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister and friend.

The family will receive friends at Patterson Funeral Home, 6062 Main Street, Niagara Falls (905-358-3513) on Thursday, November 5, 2026 from 12:00 am to 1:00 pm followed by a Service in the Chapel.
