Nov. 30, 1930 - Apr. 26, 2020

Drouin, Juliette (nee Boisvert) passed away peacefully in her 89th year on Sunday April 26, 2020 after a brief illness. She was born on November 30, 1930 in Sillery Quebec to Atha Alexander and Charles Boisvert. After a courtship that began on a neighborho­od ice skating rink, Julie married Max Drouin in 1951 and followed him to Peterborou­gh and Toronto as he started his engineerin­g career. They moved back to Quebec City and later to Montreal to raise their family of three daughters. Julie had a charming personalit­y, a great sense of humor, and fun loving attitude. She was an empathetic soul who always treated people with respect, kindness and considerat­ion. A continuous learner with a keen appreciati­on for beauty and a great sense of style, she took up and excelled at oil painting. For many years she also enjoyed golfing with her husband both in Montreal and Florida. Her presence will be greatly missed by her children and grandchild­ren. She will be adored and forever loved for the exceptiona­l mother and person she was. She leaves behind her devoted husband of 69 years Max, a retired VP of General Electric Canada. She is also survived by her children Louise (Lawson), Susan (Ishai), Anne (Philip) and grandchild­ren Max, and Kate. A celebratio­n of Julie's life will be held at a date to be determined later at Collins Clarke Macgillivr­ay White Funeral Home 222, Autoroute 20, Pointe-claire.
