Norman, Claire, Doris, Jackie
I have so many memories, but first thank you for sharing your Mom with me. She was sure that my life was not total chaos. I loved going every chance I got, and probably drove her crazy, I thought I had the summer she told me I’d make a good nun..then she smiled and her eyes crinkled and I knew I was loved...
Thank you again, my heart is sad for you
Love Joanne

So many great memories including the clam bakes at Sand Hill Road and the Christmas parties at rented venues because the Lussier family was so large.  Those were the childhood days I remember.  The family was so close then.  Now our family is small and I miss all the Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents and Cousins.  I also remember hand me downs of winter coats and how thrilled we were to get some of your coats.  Those were the simpler days.  Life has gotten so fast and complicated.  Families are just no as close.

My condolences go out to all of you.  Aunt Lorraine was a strong woman and the last of that generation of Lussiers.

So many memories come to mind when I think of you, I loved going to your house, from the creak of the swing set to the playroom  in the stair’s , from the clam bakes in the summer ( yes I tried them, I still don’t like them) to the smell of your soap! When I would see you at Ames and than Kmart with Jerry, every week like clock work you would call me by the wrong name, Jerry would correct you and we laugh because next week it was a different sister’s name but never mine, I might not have seen you often but I remember every time you were smiling...Rest easy

Some of my best childhood memories are from the Sand Hill Road days. Aunt Lorraine and Uncle Arthur always welcomed us into their home. We always went home exhausted from playing all day.
I will never forget climbing the pear tree across the street, the Rockies (they really looked big back then) and hockey!
Condolences to the family. (Best cousins ever)

My mom, small in stature but mighty in presence.  Her dedication to her family life was commendable, with five children I rarely remember her sitting idle.  I have so many great memories of life in the Tancrede household on Sand Hill Road.  It was a great place to grow up surrounded by streams, trails, rock quarries and trees.  There were Tarzan swings, wild blueberry bushes, endless places for sliding in the snow, home made ice skating rink on our side yard and plenty of places to play hide and seek.  There were enough neighborhood kids around to form some respectable teams of softball, horseshoes and badminton.  I remember being barefoot most of the summer and dreading the familiar call from our parents telling us it was time to come in for the day.
As our family grew and grandkids entered the picture I noticed a new kind of joy emerge from both my mom and dad.  To this day I have never observed another grandmother sitting on the floor to play with her grandkids. Both mom and dad were fueled by the joy of their grandkids.  In the summer we had many yard gatherings with barbecuing and clam bakes.  I don't remember who would bring balloons to many of these events but,  there always seemed to be a water balloon fight that would take place and mom was always involved!  Norm was the most elusive of them all because he could jump over fences and mom could not. 
So much laughter and camaraderie.  And who could ever forget mom with her juice glass in hand bumming a bit of beer from dad or one of the boys.  Yep!  Mom liked her beer one juice glass at a time.  My you rest in peace dear mother.  When you crossed the rainbow bridge into heaven to be outfitted with your wings and gown to prepare you for your journey ahead I hope an angel remembered to hand you a juice glass.
Until we meet again
Love 
Jackie
