Wendy Marie Remoué
It is with great sadness that the family of Wendy Marie Remoué of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, announce her passing on Sunday, November 17th, 2024, at the age of 70 years. She was predeceased by her parents, Annie and Joseph Remoué; brother-in-law, Merle Bisson; and nephew, Jason Bisson. Wendy will be lovingly remembered by her children, Chris Stephens (Erin) and Jenn McRae (Chad); grandchildren: Anna, Morgan, Emma, Dalton, and Elliot; siblings, Terry Remoué (Marilyn) and Bertha Bisson; as well numerous nieces and nephews. Wendy was born December 20th, 1953, and grew up in Rockglen, SK. She loved telling stories of how she helped her dad on the farm as a young girl, whether it be driving vehicles field to field as young as 7 or 8 years old or riding a tractor to help pick bales. She was the baby of the family, always trying to keep up with her older brother and sister who were 12 and 10 years older. After high school, Wendy attended Teachers’ College and earned her teaching diploma. She then returned to Rockglen to teach. After a few years of teaching in Rockglen, she briefly lived in Alberta before settling in Moose Jaw in 1980. She took time off to raise her family before returning to teaching. Wendy continued her education and worked to earn her teaching degree all while raising her kids and working. She tremendously enjoyed being a teacher and taught for 27 years at the Rockglen School, Sunningdale School, and Westmount School. After her retirement in 2018, Wendy’s love for teaching was only surpassed by spending time with her grandchildren. Nana enjoyed attending their activities, sporting events, dance recitals, and never missed a birthday. She also enjoyed doing some traveling with family and friends. An especially memorable vacation for her was taking her 90-year-old father on a family trip to his birthplace in France. Her smile and seeing her blue truck coming in the distance will forever be missed and not forgotten by the many who knew her. The Funeral Service will be held on Friday, November 22nd, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. at Moose Jaw Funeral Home. Pastor Marvin Seaborg will officiate and interment will take place in Quantock Cemetery, Rockglen, SK. Those not able to attend may view the service by going to www.moosejawfuneralhome.com/webcast/. In lieu of flowers, donations in Wendy’s name may be made to a children’s charity of one’s choice. Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane.

My sincere condolences to Chris, Jen and families. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.
I loved working with your mom (grandma) at Sunningdale School. We had many laughs together over the years.
I’m very sorry for the family’s lost and my condolences are with them. I was a previous student of Wendy and she really made an impact on the ones she taught , she will be missed
Jenn, I was shocked to read that Wendy had passed away. I loved subbing for her, she was an awesome teacher and I felt privileged that she allowed me to take over her class when she had to be absent.
Hold on to those precious memories and they will become treasures in your heart forever.
You may not remember me but you went to school with my daughter, Natosha.
Chris and Jen, my sincerest condolences on the sudden passing of your mother (grandmother). I taught with Wendy in Rockglen when she first started teaching, and I was pleasantly surprised when she phoned me when your family moved to Moose Jaw. At conventions and in-services we always had a short conversation and laughs about our years in Rockglen. Keep your memories of your mom secure in your hearts, since they will become moments of happiness when you remember in the future.
I send my heartfelt condolences to Wendy’s children and her family.
I am so saddened to hear of her passing.
I taught with Wendy at Westmount School, for 7 years. She was a most dedicated teacher who wanted the very best learning experiences for her students. Toward that end, she was always well informed about the latest professional developments in the curricula. And she was just the best supervisor of students in my Division 1 Choir.
I know she will be sorely missed.
