A ses eleves...

Mme. Desgroseilliers was already a mature professor, when i met her in highschool. She presented as confident and a truth teller; intimidating to some students who wanted to get away with not reading their French lessons i imagine. Little did i know that she would have such an impact on my life; in fact i still have the painting of her i did when i was barely 16; she road the bus with us from the Quebec border to Kirkland Lake every morning; I had to draw her I thought. "She is special". As an adult, I followed her writings and watched her intently as an independent female academic; she had a political life and progressive mind; traits she knew I admired about her. Gaby knew about life, living and cherished her history; she lived a simple yet vibrant lifestyle in her own way. My favorite moments were when i would go see her in the bush and just listen to her talk about how she toiled the land to build her home. I think about her often and celebrate her writings; the last newspaper article remains posted on my office wall. Sometimes i wonder if she was not "La Petite Poule Rouge", because of her progressive view points and the moral courage she had to share them as well as her ability to question the world around her with such a calm disposition yet inquisitive mind. I can only hope that she felt satisfied with the life she lead; I certainly watched her (even from afar) in wonderment as someone who would become an important character in the fabric of Abitibi and ultimately an important elder in the fabric of my life. As I plan to commemorate my blood elders this spring, I will ensure to do the same for her.

Tante Gaby

I very much admired and looked up to my Aunt Gaby. Her strength of character, independence and witty sense of humour never ceased to amaze me throughout the years. She was always available with infallible advise which was very much appreciated. My fondest memory of her was from my early twenties. While visiting, I mentioned how much I had hoped that my father would take me fishing but he never had. She intended to fix that and within minutes, fishing poles in hand, we were walking down to the dock. We spent an absolutely lovely afternoon fishing on the lake. I especially loved the many stories she told of her time spent as a missionary in Africa. Gaby was very much loved and is sorely missed by my daughter Sophia and I. It is very difficult to know that there will be no further visits, phone calls and letters. Yet, we are comforted by the knowledge that felt deeply that she was returning “home”.
