She was born on June 2, 1941, in St-Ephrem, Beauce Quebec, Canada the daughter of the late Trefflé Turcotte and Rose-Eva (Fortin). She was the beloved wife of the late Renald Plante who passed away in April 2000.

Mariette was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister and friend. She enjoyed cooking and baking; the family will miss her delicious tourtière’s. She enjoyed reading, doing word searches, playing cards and decorating her house for every season.

She enjoyed the simple pleasures of life spending time with her family and friends and will be remembered for her contagious smile, laughter, and loving spirit. Before her husband’s death she worked as his bookkeeper for their company Interior Systems, Inc.

After retirement they spent time traveling and became snowbirds to the warmth of Florida.

She is survived by her children Sylvie (Plante) Bouffard and her husband David, Richard Plante, Michael Plante and his wife Donna (Levesque) and Lynn (Plante) Clarke and her husband Kenneth. Her grandchildren, Brittany Franzek and her husband Derek, Brian Bouffard and his wife Kim, Kevin Plante and his wife Jessica, Donna Plante and her wife Melissa, Angela Desper and her husband Charlie, Lindsay Plante, Nicholas Plante and Matthew Baddeley. Her great grandchildren, Isaac, Levi, Gavin, Garrison, Graham, Kaydence, Trenton, Trevor, Carson and Lilah. Her sister, Laurette Lapointe and brother Jean-Phillipe Turcotte and the extended Plante family members which were like brothers and sisters to her. Also, many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends including Jodi Copp Plante (once family always family).

Mariette was preceded in death by her husband, parents and her brothers Paul Turcotte, Pamphile Turcotte and Dominique Turcotte.

Though our hearts are filled with sorrow, we find comfort in the many memories of her strength, kindness, compassion, and deep faith. She had a gentle heart and a generous spirit, and her love for her family was evident in all that she did. The love and kindness she shared will continue to inspire all who had the privilege of knowing her.
