Margarette Gervais Obituary (1967 - 2023)

Today we celebrate the beautiful life of Margarette Gervais. On January 24th Margarette got her wings at the age of 55. She was a caring, giving and selfless soul. Margarette is survived by her three amazing children Claude Jr., Johanna, Jean and her Husband. Her children were her life and if you worked with her youd know. Not a day would go by that she didnt brag about them. Despite having to care for her children and husband, she also provided financial support to her family in Haiti. A perfect example of her selfless spirit. Margarette was born on November 7th, 1967 in Arcahaie, Haiti to parents Ermithe and Anois. She grew up in Port Au Prince and was raised by her late Aunt, Elpidia Francois. When she was young she traveled to Norwalk, Connecticut alongside her aunt and other family members. Upon arrival knowing no English, Margarette began working and living the American dream. Those who know Margarette knew she was a hard worker and resilient even through times of adversity. Margarette was never scared to take on new opportunities, she did everything with honesty and integrity. She had very strong values, always kept a positive mindset and was loved by everyone. A woman with profound patience and always found a way to help others. To know her is to love her, her big heart and giving nature. Although Margarettes life seems short to many, those of us who were blessed to be touched by her existence understand the imprint she left on our hearts. It exceeds the quantity of time that she stayed here. Her legacy will carry on forever reminding us that we are in control of our attitudes. Margarette is now at peace and in heaven, surrounded by the light of the Lord. Thank you to friends and family members for all the love and support you have given. We truly appreciate it.
