      Adam's Funeral Home Online Obituaries (Web)[SD], (Adam's Funeral Home).
      A contributor has cited material deemed to be pertinent to this story.
      It is described as "Janine-Vigier".

      It was described specifically or transcribed by them as "Janine (née Brick) Vigier, January 21, 2022; Last year, Janine reminded us that she had bought her wedding dress at Eaton's for $40. Memory was fading, yet Janine vividly remembered the start of her loving marriage with Guy that lasted 72 years unt".il her death in the early morning hours of January 21, 2022 one day shy of her 90th birthday.

      Guy and Janine started their married life in Cardinal before moving to the farm where they raised their family, and where today a third generation of Vigier children still have run of the yard. At 18 and 19 years old, it's fair to say that Janine and Guy grew up together while finding their way as parents and partners in life, trying always to model loving kindness and respect.

      In 1970, Janine trained as a nurse, living and studying in Winnipeg until she returned home with a snow-white nurse's cap that marked the start of a long nursing career first at the hospital in Swan Lake then in Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes, and later in Saint Boniface.

      In 1974, Guy and Janine moved outside of Winnipeg, taking with them the home they'd built on the farm and that Janine refused to leave behind. Throughout there were travels to Mexico, France, Texas, Hawaii, Florida, California, and New York where she loved the museums, the Broadway shows, the opera, and shopping trips to Macy's.

      Janine is survived by Guy, her husband of 72 years, her children Charlotte (Don Segal†), Rachel (David Koosis), Guy (Thuy), and André (Cheryl, her field companion); grandchildren, David (Angelmarie), Sarah and Emma, Rebecca, Tavis (Tahnea), Dylan (Leiah), great-grandchildren Alec and Flora (who made a surprise visit one day outside Memère's window); her sister Lorraine and niece Josanne in France, and her brother Gérald (Sharon). She was preceded in 1988 by brother Hubert, daughter Micheline, and in 2011 by son-in-law Don.

      The family is grateful to Charlotte, André, and Cheryl who cared for Janine and were with her until the end when we all could not be there and to the staff at the Foyer Notre Dame who made family visits possible during trying circumstances.

      So come, my friends, be not afraid.

      We are so lightly here.

      It is in love that we are made

      In love we disappear

      -Leonard Cohen

      Il y a quelques mois, Janine nous rappelait qu'elle avait achetée sa robe de mariée chez Eaton pour 40 $. Bien que la mémoire s'écoulait, les premiers souvenirs de son mariage de 72 ans avec Guy lui ont restés sur le cœur jusqu'à sa mort aux petites heures du matin du 21 janvier 2022, un jour avant son 90ème anniversaire.

      Guy et Janine ont commencés leur vie ensemble à Cardinal et ensuite sur la ferme au sud-ouest où ils ont élevés leur famille, et où aujourd'hui une troisième génération de Vigier s'amuse toujours dans la cour. Au jour de leur noce, Janine et Guy n'avaient que 18 et 19 ans. Il faut bien dire que ces deux jeunes ont grandis ensemble tout en faisant leur chemin comme parents et partenaires dans la vie, toujours avec amour et tendresse.

      En 1970, Janine a suivie une formation d'infirmière à Winnipeg. Elle est rentrée chez elle avec son bonnet d'infirmière, aussi blanc que la neige, pour commencer une longue carrière d'abord à l'hôpital de Swan Lake puis à Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes, et enfin à Saint Boniface.

      En 1974, Guy et Janine ont déménagés à l'extérieur de Winnipeg, emportant avec eux la maison qu'ils avaient construit sur la ferme et que Janine a refusée de quitter. Au cours des années, il y a eu des voyages au Mexique, en France, au Texas, à Hawaï, en Floride, en Californie, et à New York où elle a jouie des musées, les spectacles de Broadway, et de l'opéra. Il ne faut pas oublier non plus, le plaisir du shopping chez Macy!

      Janine laisse dans le deuil Guy, son mari depuis 72 ans, ses enfants Charlotte (Don Segal†), Rachel (David Koosis), Guy (Thuy), et André (Cheryl, qui l'accompagnait aux champs pendant les moissons); petits-enfants David (Angelmarie), Sarah et Emma, Rebecca, Tavis (Tahnea), Dylan (Leiah), arrière-petits-enfants Alec et Flora (qui un jour a surpris Memère devant sa fenêtre); sa sœur Lorraine et sa nièce Josanne en France, et son frère Gérald (Sharon). Elle a été précédée en 1988 par son frère Hubert, sa fille Micheline, et en 2011 par son gendre Don.

      La famille est reconnaissante envers Charlotte, André, et Cheryl qui se sont dévoués au soin de Janine et qui ont été avec elle jusqu'à la fin quand nous ne pouvions tous pas être là. Merci aussi au personnel du Foyer Notre Dame qui a rendu les visites familiales possibles dans des circonstances difficiles.

      Alors mes amis, venez, n'ayez pas peur.

      On est ici que légèrement.

      C'est en amour qu'on est fait

      En amour qu'on disparaît.

      -Leonard Cohen
