In Memory of Gail Evelyne Chabot (nee Fleming)
Gail peacefully passed away on September 9, 2023 at the age of 85 years. She was the beloved wife of the late Gerald Chabot, daughter of the late James Havelocke Fleming born in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan and the late foster Mom-Osland.
She leaves in sadness her children; Roselle Chabot Rouleau (Dan), John Chabot (Cindy) and Andrea McCulloch Chabot (Kelvin). Cherished grandmother of Annique, Evelyne, Ilyana & Owen, Mitchell, Nicholas & Kyle, Travis & Genoah. Predeceased by her siblings, Joan, Margaret, Ann, and Barry.
Mom was a proud RNA nurse in Winnipeg, MB and at the Riverside Hospital etc in Ottawa, ON for over 20 years. As well, the RCMP for over 15 years.
Mom enjoyed Camping, family games, knitting, cross-stitch, crochet, sewing, baking, gardening, curling, skiing, singing with the church choir, and following many Sports / Olympics on TV.

Dear Roselle, John, Andrea and family,
I will always remember your mom as a cheerful person and always welcoming me as a young teenager into her house with her delicious baked goods and at the campsite. Last year she had a wonderful conversation with my husband John. May you keep your memories of her close to your hearts.

My deepest sympathy on the passing of Gail. I’ve known Gail for several years when she was a volunteer at Madonna nursing home and socially as well. Gail was a very caring
And loving person. Always ready to help others.
I first met Gail in Churchill, Manitoba in the mid 1960’s. She came to Churchill where her foster-brother Les Osland and his family were posted with the navy and where she met her future husband and the love of her life, Gerry Chabot. I attended their wedding and later when I married a navy man, Bob Gray, we followed them from base to base, the last being Gander, Nfld. before finally ending up in Ottawa with our young families. We were at Gerry’s funeral in 2006 and joined Gail and their family in grief at his passing. Gail was a kind, gentle and loving mother and wife and friend. While we lost touch over the years, I have thought of her often and with fond memories. Rest in peace Gail.
Roselle, John, Andrea & family, I’m so very sorry for the loss of your mom. She was like a second mom to me while growing up, she was such an amazing lady with a heart of gold. Thinking of you all and sending big hugs during this difficult time. Take care xoxo
Sincere condolences on the passing of Gail. I met Gail at Madonna Nursing Home many years ago. A lovely giving person she helped the residents with knitting and was always there to help.. will miss her.
We are so sad to hear about your beloved mother/grandmother’s passing. Gail was such a beautiful and warm-hearted person.
We are keeping all of you in our thoughts and prayers. We are sorry we cannot attend the funeral due to sickness.

Roselle, John, Andrea and your families, you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
I was sorry to read of your Mom’s passing. I remember her as a caring vibrant Mom with a beautiful smile (l babysat Roselle and John while she worked the evening shift as a nurse when your Dad was in Alert). And I remember her joy when she showed me the two dozen red roses your Dad sent her while he was gone – and as a 16 year old, I thought it was the most romantic thing I’d ever seen. God willing, their souls are together again for eternity. May your faith and family support you all doing these difficult times and find comfort in a life well lived and well loved.
