<div itemprop="description">It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our mother, Muriel on August 16, 2017 at the age of 86 at the Centre d'Hébergement de Lachine. Predeceased by her husband Wellington Paul Gavin, (deceased 1977). Much-loved mother to her 11 children, Brian (Jennifer), Burt, Gregg (Rita), Gail (Wayne), Karen (Mike), Kim (Carole), Wellington (Kasia), William (Lee), Angela (Günter), Agnes (Stéphane) and Cecilia (Geoff). Muriel is also survived by 18 grandchildren, 4 great grandchildren, her brother Arnold, her sisters Olive, Marina and Eileen plus many nieces, nephews and friends. Muriel will be remembered as a mother who lost her husband early in life and was then challenged with the task of still raising the children that remained at home with her. She instilled determination and high standards in everything she did. Visitation will take place at Rideau Funeral Home, 4275 Sources Blvd on Saturday, August 26, 2017 as of 12 pm followed by a Celebration of Life Service at 1 pm. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to La Fondation du Centre d'hébergement Lachine. Muriel’s final resting place will be in Parrsboro, Nova Scotia. She will be missed but not forgotten. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br></div>
