Elizabeth’s Obituary
It is with great sadness that the family announce the passing of Elizabeth Duffenais on Monday, October 11th, 2021 at Sir Thomas Roddick Hospital, Stephenville, at the age of 76 years.
Liz was well known and liked in the community. She was a devoted member of the church who prayed for the well-being of everyone she met. Her loving smile and warm heart graced the people she served, and worked with at Canada Post.
She was a hard worker, but took time to enjoy life by decorating her house, exercising at the gym, and visiting the hair/nail salon; always looking her best.
Her favourite time was spent with family. She had complete devotion to her children and grandchildren. Her love came without conditions. Even though the suffering could have given her reasons to be resentful, she loved until the end.
She leaves to mourn with many loving memories: husband Alphonsus; son Roy; daughters: Annette, Paula, Barbara, and Jessie; grandchildren: Paul, Terri-Lynn, Claudia, and Kendal; brothers: Leo, Alfie, Morgan, and Billy; and sisters: Allie and Sylvia; as well as a large circle of extended relatives and friends.
Liz was predeceased by parents Marguerite Snook and Alfred Peters.
A funeral Mass was held on Friday, October 15th at 10:00 AM from St. Stephen’s Parish, followed by interment at Hillside Interfaith cemetery.
As expressions of sympathy, in lieu of flowers, donations in Elizabeth’s memory may be made to St. Stephen’s Parish.
Liz was deeply loved, and will be greatly missed by those fortunate enough to have been in her life.
Mom, your memory is a gift we will hold forever in our hearts. Thank you for giving us your strength.
Go Rest High on That Mountain
Do to others as you would have them do to you.
Luke 6:31
