It was with great sadness that we share the passing of our beloved mother Claire Ducharme (nee Proulx) at the Ottawa General Hospital on Sunday, December 11, 2022 at the age of 89. Claire passed away due to complications to the RSV Virus. In Mom’s own words as she wrote her own obituary and selected the photo that she wanted to include with her obituary. Claire was the daughter of the late Rosa (nee Galipeault) and the late Jean-Louis Proulx. Dearly beloved wife of the late John Ducharme, my soul mate for 67 years. I leave behind my 6 children, Denise Alexander (Ernie), Pauline Maxwell (late Joe), Louise Hankey (Wesley), Helene Klimo (Tony), John Ducharme (Susie) and Nicole Ducharme (Jean). Also there are my 9 grandchildren, 10 great-grandchildren, 2 great great granddaughters and also 1 great great grandson. I leave behind my brother Marcel Proulx (late Louise) and many nieces, nephews and friends. I want to mention my brothers, John Proulx (Ethel), Jacques Proulx (Georgette), André Proulx (Carmelle) and my sister Hélène Proulx (Wilfred “Ted”) all deceased. In lieu of flowers, I would appreciate donations to the Ottawa Mission. A celebration of life will be held at a later date, whereby my family will receive family and friends before the service at the St. Laurent Chapel of Hulse, Playfair & McGarry, 1200 Ogilvie Road, Ottawa, Ontario
