LEWISTON — Therese B. Moreau, 95, of Lewiston, passed away peacefully Thursday, April 12, at Montello Commons in Lewiston.

She was born in Chisholm, May 6, 1922, a daughter of the late Ejide and Emma (Bibeau) Lacasse. She was educated in Chisholm schools.

On Feb. 23, 1946, she married Roland Moreau. She worked in various mills and helped raise and take care of foster children for many years. Her last job, at the age of 60, was when she worked in a day care center.

Some of her favorite enjoyments were spending time with her grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren, and playing bingo, different card games and singing. She will always be remembered for her favorite saying: “A chocolate a day keeps the doctor away,” and every time someone told her they loved her, her response was always, “I love you more.” She will be deeply missed by many.

She is survived by her son, Philippe Moreau, and his wife, Anne, of Greene; her daughter, Doris Page, and her husband, Robert, of St. Leonard d’Aston, P.Q., Canada; her adopted son, Paul Moreau, of Florida; her adopted daughter, Pauline Moreau; her many grandchildren; great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren.

She was predeceased by her loving husband, Roland Moreau, and her seven siblings, Louis Lacasse, Marie-Ange Lacroix, Cecile Beauchesne, Rita Bellmore, Roger Lacasse, Normand Lacasse and Roland Bibeau.

The family wishes to express their sincere thanks to all of the wonderful people who work at Montello Commons who took such good care of Therese. She was always shown a lot of love there.
