It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that the family announces the death of Pauline (née Dionne) Guérin, who passed away peacefully at Health Sciences North in Sudbury, on Thursday, October 20, 2022 after a hard and courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. She was 81 years old. Beloved wife of Gilles Guérin for 53 years and loving mother of Vincent Guérin, both of Noëlville. Pauline is survived by her brothers Roger Dionne (Jeannette) of Sudbury, Rhéal Dionne (Jean) of Orillia, Michel Dionne (Joanne) of Hanmer, and Gilles Dionne (Pauline) of Ottawa. Predeceased by her very close and dear sister Claire Dionne-Cauchy, her father Roland Dionne, and her mother, Bernadette (née Guilbeault) Dionne.

Pauline was an elementary school teacher in Noëlville for 18 years. After retiring, she devoted her time in becoming an excellent homemaker and incredible cook for her husband and son. Her homemade soups, spaghetti with Italian sauce, and lasagna dish were among some of the many meals she excelled at creating and took pleasure sharing with her family. Pauline could always be found cleaning because she loved nothing more than a sparkling clean house. She took great pride in always keeping her home neat, spotless, and well organized.

Pauline will be remembered for her enjoyment of her favourite pastime of fishing on Lake Nipissing and camping at Shuswap Camp. It made her day when she would catch a smallmouth bass or northern pike while having a picnic on her favourite island on the lake. She liked travelling with her family and especially enjoyed the fun summer trips to the Rocky Mountains and Gaspésie, and the multiple winter trips to Florida. She also enjoyed reading, crossword puzzles, and watching movies and television series. You could never disturb her when she watched her two favourite soaps, The Bold and the Beautiful and The Young and the Restless.

Pauline is deeply loved and will dearly be missed by her family, relatives, and friends.

As per the wishes of Pauline and that of her family, a cremation has taken place and there will be no funeral service or celebration of life, since she celebrated every day of her life surrounded by the love of her family. Cremation services provided by Cooperative Funeral Home in Sudbury. Entombment in the St. David Municipal Cemetery in Noëlville.
