Anna Larocque passed away on June 3, 2026, at the Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre (RVH), with her daughter and son-in-law by her side.
Her last six months were difficult. Anna was moved to Barrie by her daughter, Rosemary, who ensured she was kept as comfortable as possible during her remaining time.
Anna was predeceased by her husband, James, on March 4, 2026. James must have been getting impatient, as she passed away just three days before what would have been their 67th wedding anniversary on June 6.
An avid quilter, Anna deeply valued the companionship of her “quilting girls”. They kept her active and gave her a reason to get out and about. T he many quilts she created throughout her life each carry a story and will remain cherished keepsakes for her family and friends.
Anna loved to feel the sun on her face, a gentle breeze, and the scenery of Lake Huron. At the end of the day, the big red ball was a welcome sight.
Above all, Anna was dedicated to her grandchildren. She took great pride in watching them grow and shared her own unique words of wisdom with each of them.
She will be missed by Chris, Rosemary (Chris), David (Paula), Sasha (Bri), Carolyn, Justin, Geoff, Patricia, Noah, and Simon.
