It is with great sadness that we announce
the passing of Rachelle Pomfrey, at the age of 44 years, who passed away on
November 24th from her battle with stomach cancer at the St. Boniface
Hospital in Winnipeg, MB.
Rachelle will be lovingly missed by her 2
cherished children, Desiree Pomfrey and Dallas Pomfrey as well as her mother Monique
Boulet (Gilles), father Henri Dupont (Lynne), brother Rejean Boulet (Elda), sister
Ginette Ripley (John), brother Daniel Dupont and sister Janelle Dupont. She
also leaves behind her nieces and nephews, Katelyn Hunter, Blake Hunter, Tiana
Boulet and Rafael Boulet. Rachelle was predeceased by her father Gilles Boulet.
Rachelle was a woman of faith and we know
she has been welcomed in heaven by her father Gilles, her 3 children lost in
pregnancy and her grandparents and dear friend Carla who also passed away this
year from stomach cancer. Rachelle was a special woman who loved her family and
friends and had a special place in her heart for special needs children. She
spent her career as a teacher’s assistant in Brandon, MB
where she was able to touch the lives of many children through her years.
Rachelle loved art and passed that love on
to her children. In 2007 Rachelle published a book called “ABC Kids” which she
wrote and illustrated. Rachelle loved to spend time with her children first and
foremost and they were her entire world. Rachelle loved dogs and raised many
puppies over the years which brought her much joy. She also loved to play cards
and cherished her many cribbage games with her Papa Henri.
The family wants to thank everyone for
their many prayers over the last year with her battle with cancer and we are
especially thankful to all the nurses and doctors who showed such kindness to her
during this difficult time. A special thank you goes out to Stacy and Maggie in
Palliative care for being so amazing during her last week on earth. Rachelle’s
family would also like to thank her mother Monique for taking care of her in
her last 5 months during her most difficult battle.
Funeral Liturgy will be celebrated on
Saturday, November 30 at 1:30 p.m. at St. Georges Roman Catholic Church with
prayers at 1:00 p.m. Interment will
follow in the parish cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, Rachelle’s wish was to raise money for a water well through World Vision. Due to her cancer she was unable to drink any fluids and wanted her last mission to be to help those who also don’t have water. worldvisioncan.akaraisin.com/Donation/Event/DonationType.aspx?seid=19553&mid=48
