Françoise Marie Emery

John and I are so sorry to hear this news. She was a great friend to John's mother Roisin. We are forever greatful for that. Our thoughts are with you

I’m sorry to hear of the premature passing of Françoise. She was a very gentle and caring person, and a wonderful aunt to my girls. Deepest condolences to Louis, Jean, Julie and Matthieu.

We are saddened to hear of the passing of Mlle Emery. She was a very talented and dedicated teacher to her students . All of my 4 children were very fortunate to be taught religion by Mlle Emery. I have such fond memories of her tie dye T-shirt's she made with the kids . Sending love and peace to the family may she rest in Peace

I remember when Francois came to Cobourg. My husband hired her to teach at St. Michael's School. That had to be many years ago. I can't believe that she has past away so young. Peace and Prays be with her family. Anne Jones

Francoise and I crossed paths many times throughout the years. Firstly during our theatrical acting stints with Northumberland Players in the late 90’s and later, after retirement, we became golf buddies. Francoise loved the game, always trying to improve with such patience especially when searching for lost balls. (mostly mine). Rest in Peace my friend. I will miss you!

Mlle. Emery was a very dedicated teacher that had a true interest in her students. She cared to understand their interests. She had an incredible faith. We’re glad she discovered her artistic abilities well before her retirement. I was inspired by her talent for observation. Rest in peace dear Francois.

So sad. Francoise was an original thinker. She articulated her thoughts well. That said, I was advised not to say this, but having known her for a time, I found Francoise, "delightfully eccentric". She knew her mind and wasn't shy about expressing her thoughts. I am glad to have known her.

Francoise was a teacher whose lessons extended beyond academics. I will always remember her student's tie dye t shirts hanging to dry on the playground fence. I enjoyed our days working together at St. Michael's School. Rest in peace, Francoise.

I am sad to hear of Mme Emery's passing and seeing her photo posted here, I remember her face so well. My family and I have such fond memories of growing up in French immersion at St Michael's School and we still talk about the amazing teachers we had there, Mme Emery being our Grade 1 teacher. Sending hugs and warm thoughts to her family as they grieve this sad loss 💛

I was privileged to be part of Françoise’s helping team toward the end of her life. She was always interested in MY life as the conversation steered away from her own; so completely self-less. Godspeed my friend 🕊️

I am blessed to have such fond memories of working with Francoise at St. Michael’s. The love and faith she so willingly shared will live on in all of us privileged to have known her and been taught by her. The entire Sweet family send our condolences.

We are saddened to hear of the passing of our son-in-law's sister, Françoise. We extend our sincere condolences to Matthieu and family. May the many fond memories sustain the entire family through this difficult time.

I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of Francoise. I have many fond memories of working with her. She was always at work later at night and we had so many great chats about her life and family. Sending peace and love to her family.

Sending love and peace to the family.🤍🕊

We were so saddened to hear of Mme. Emery’s passing. She had a beautiful spirit and shared it with all that were fortunate enough to have known her. Francoise took delight in sharing her first language with her students and they in turn, benefited from her caring passion. This is one of her many legacies. May her family (and her many Cobourg friends) find solace in the shared happy memories of times spent together. May they provide some semblance of peace and comfort during this sad time.

I am so sorry for the Emery family loss of this amazing woman. She had a kind heart and cared for everyone she came in contact with. Francoise was an amazing teacher at St. Michael School where we met. Our friendship continued outside of school. We took lessons to learn how to watercolor paint. We shared many ideas when completing other art projects. My children, Trevor and Rosalyn sent time with her talking about their future hopes. I imagine her in heaven teaching art lessons to the angels. The Lawton family will miss her greatly.

Emery Families, My son had Mme Emery years ago for a 5th grade teacher. She was a great teacher, caring for her students. I'm sure she will be missed by many. Condolences to the family.

May flights of angels sing you to your rest, Françoise. I will miss you very much. My prayers and thoughts are with the family as you mourn your loss. God bless you all!

Oh Francoise. Such a beautiful soul. Dors en paix My prayers are with her family friends and former students.

I was sorry to hear of Françoise' passing. My deepest condolences to Julie and family at this time of change. May the Saviour she believed in cradle her as tenderly as you hold her in your own hearts.

So sorry to hear this. Mme Emery taught my daughter many many years ago and whenever I met her on the street she always asked me how Connie was doing. A true teacher who will always be remembered by Connie and I .

Francoise was an active member of our Bible Study group. She will be sorely missed by all of us. She exhibited a strong Christian faith and a positive outlook at all the meetings she attended. We know that a place has been reserved for her by our Lord.

Our sincere condolences to the family on the passing of Francoise. Our son was in her first class of teaching in Cobourg and she always remembered his birthday. I think he tested her a lot. She always had a kind word & smile when we saw each other about or at Church.
