Thelma Lennia Lajeunesse (Hager)
It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of our Mother, Nana and best friend Thelma Lennia Lajeunesse (Hager) after a short battle with cancer.
Thelma (known as Nana to all) was born December 30, 1927 to Helga and Albin Hager and was raised in Laclu along with her eight siblings: Carl, Harold, Albert, Arthur, Alvin, Eva, Ruby and Viola.
Thelma met and married Reg Lajeunesse in 1947 and in over 50 years of marriage raised six children: Dennis (Barb), Cal (predeceased, 1999) (Wendy), Pat Olson (Dale), Shirley Rumpel (Ron), Melody Alcock, Lisa Gagnon (Marcel). She also has two godchildren, Connie Ahola and Bonnie Robb.
Nana had 16 grandchildren and 21 great grandchildren who have many memories to cherish of endless hours spent swimming off the dock or simply hanging out on Beach Road. Nana was the pillar of our family. She loved each and every one of us unconditionally with all her heart, leaving us all with life long memories to cherish.
Her strength came from her great faith in the Lord. Her church family at New Beginnings were very special to her.
Rest in peace Nana; you will be truly missed.
We love you.
Pallbearers will be Thelma's grandsons Clay Lajeunesse, Ben Lajeunesse, Jon Olson, Chris Hagloff, Cody Hagloff and Justin Harper.
Funeral Services will be held on Thursday, August 16, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. at Brown Funeral Home & Cremation Centre, with Pastors Bill and Carol Lawson officiating.
In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the Cancer Society or charity of choice.
