It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Lorraine Elizabeth Fontaine of Winnipeg on June 16, 2026, at the age of 89, following a lengthy and courageous battle with dementia.
Lorraine will be deeply missed by her family and friends. She leaves behind her sister, Cecile (René), and her nephew, Moe (Karen). She was predeceased by her parents, Albert and Laura. At Lorraine’s request, no service will be held.
Lorraine loved spending sunny days at Grand Beach, sitting in her customary spot with her large beach chair and radio. She also enjoyed traveling to faraway places with her nephew and friends. Gathering for lunches or dinners to celebrate special occasions and holidays was something she greatly delighted in. Lorraine was proud to have spent her entire career at Supercrete/Lafarge and always spoke fondly of the company and her coworkers.
The family wishes to extend a special thank you to the staff of the Riverview Health Centre long-term care unit for their care and compassionate support. We are truly grateful
