Catherine (Gaudet) Allain
It’s with sad hearts we announce the passing of our wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, Catherine. Catherine is survived by her husband of 63 years, Joseph (Zie) Allain; her children Tracey (Peter) Jacobs, Whitehorse; Milford (Sandra) Allain Whitehorse; and Dawn (Al) Badke, Red Deer, Alberta; grandchildren Kasey, Jake, Jessie, Dawson and Sylvana; great-grandchildren Madisyn and Ryan; her sisters: Mary Anne Harrach, Whitehorse; Josie Albert, Dorothy Thibodeau, Eileen Bernard, Eva Clements, & Sheila Gaudet of Prince Edward Island. Catherine was predeceased by her parents Edmond & Mary Gaudet, and her brother Eric. Catherine and her family moved to the Yukon from P.E.I. in 1982. Catherine worked at the Whitehorse General Hospital in the kitchen for over 18 years. Catherine loved playing Bingo and playing crib while skunking her opponent at most games. She also loved camping and sitting by the fire. She was greatly loved and will be truly missed. The family of Catherine would like to thank all the wonderful staff of Copper Ridge Place for the extraordinary care and compassion they gave our wife/mother. We would also like to thank Dr. Chau & Dr. Quong for the care they provided mom. As a family we are going to truly miss her big smile and wit! Mom had no problem letting you know what she thought but she also had the biggest heart! A public viewing will be held Monday, August 13th, 7-8 p.m. at Heritage North Funeral Home. The Funeral will be held on Tuesday, August 14th at 2 p.m. at Sacred Heart Church, with refreshments to follow in the church basement. At this time there will be no burial.
