Mariette was born July 26, 1936 in Trois Riviere, Quebec. Her dream as a young child was to become a teacher, she achieved that dream teaching for over 40 years in Manitouwadge and Thunder Bay.

Mariette was involved in many activities throughout the years, some of which included the catholic Woman’s Society, sporting events, volunteering, meals on wheels just to name a few.

Mariette will be fondly remembered for her friendly demeanour and kindness by all who knew her.

She was especially proud of her two children, Roberto and Gina Scapinello and her grandchildren /great grandchild Michael, Melissa and Mason.

Gerard Beaulieu, her partner for over the past 10 years loved her dearly. Our family will forever be grateful for his care of our dear mother throughout the years.
