It is with great sadness that after living a long and wonderful life, our mother Francisca (Cisca) passed away peacefully on July 3, 2020. Born in Cowansville, Quebec to Kathleen (Cusack) and Franz Joseph Delicaet. Francisca was the sister to Paul and Leonard. They moved to NDG in the 40’s and grew up as part of the St. Ignatius of Loyola parish. Francisca was a graduate of Sacred Heart and married LeBaron Joseph LeBlanc Jr. in 1952. In 1955 they purchased a home in a new development of Lachine which the family would live in for the next 60 years. Throughout that time they had five children and the family was an active part of the Resurrection of our Lord parish. She was a proud member of the Beaver Lodge Alumni.
She will be missed by her children, Paul (Pat) of Oakville, Brian (Kim) of Calgary, Michael (Lina) of Montreal, Andrea (Steve Buckle) of Winnipeg and Kenneth (Valerie) of Kirkland, her many grandchildren, Laura (Bill), David (Nicole), Meaghan, Steven, Katie, Matthew, Ashley, Bradley, Kevin, Shannon, Gregory, and Theo and her great grandchildren Jacob, Chloe and Clara. Also mourning her are her sister in law Anne and her husband Bruce Garland of Lac Marois and many nieces and nephews. The family would like to thank the staff of the Sunrise Residence in Beaconsfield for the exceptional care and love they gave her over the last 8 years. At Cisca’s request, there will be no visitation. A funeral mass for family and friends will be held on Tuesday, July 21, 2020 at Saint John Paul II parish (formerly Resurrection of our Lord) 34 34th Ave in Lachine. Please contact the family directly for details.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation, a cause to which she gave much of her time.
