Peacefully at Gateway Haven – Wiarton on Friday October 24, 2025 at the age of 75 years. It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Francine (nee Gareau), a devoted wife of 52 years to Robert Hepburn. Francine was a loving mother to Brian and Michelle (William Hofman), and a cherished grandmother to Anthony (Rebecca), Tyler (Chelsea), Sonya (Josh), Jarrett (Brittney), and Mason. She was also a proud great-grandmother to Bishop, Asher, Brant, Harris, and Wade. Sister of Georgette (Roland Grenier).
Predeceased by parents, Henry and Simone; and siblings, Jacques (Doris), Pierre (Michelline), and Huguette (Ed Cohen).
Francine had a love of music, jamborees, darts, horseshoes, and to make people laugh while cooking and sharing food. She devoted her career to supporting others as a committed support worker for Gateway Haven, touching countless lives with kindness and empathy. Her gentle spirit and tireless efforts brought comfort and hope to those in need.
We would like to thank Gateway Haven staff for the loving care Francine received as a resident during the last 2 years.
