Obituary of Mary Baillargeon
Baillargeon, Mary (nee Swestun)
November 8, 1929 - July 23, 2022
Mary Baillargeon, formerly of Romney Township, has passed away. May the start of her new journey let her reunite with her husband, Earl, who left her behind 21 months earlier after 67 years of marriage.
Mary was the daughter of the late Adam & Sophia (nee Malanchuk) Swestun.
She will be dearly missed by her son, Randy & his wife, Tracey, daughter Judy & her husband, Ed, and daughter Debbie and her husband, Steve. Also loved by grandchildren, Marlene, Destin, Chase, Lisa, Michelle, Jason & Ryan. And 11 great-grandchildren.
Survived by sister, Olga Glogowski & brother, Bill Swestun, and his wife Sharon. She will be sadly missed by many nieces & nephews.
Her many years of hard work alongside Earl, toiling on the farm, eventually led them to a comfortable life, where they were able to travel frequently and enjoy the results of their labour.
A Private Ceremony has been arranged.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimer's Society.
Online condolences may be left for the family at www.mckinlayfuneralhome.com.
