In memory of Bette Le Portel, who passed away peacefully on June 15, 2023, at the age of 87. Born on July 4, 1936, in Calais, France, Bette lived a remarkable life filled with love, laughter, and unwavering strength.
Bette spent her childhood in a quaint cottage by the sea. She was the eldest of four children and helped raise her younger siblings with love and care. At the age of 20, she met her beloved husband, Jean Le Portel. They married a year later and went on to have three children who became the center of their world.
Bette dedicated her life to her family. As a mother, she instilled in her children the values of kindness, compassion, and perseverance. As a grandmother, she cherished every moment with her seven grandchildren. She always had a warm smile and a listening ear, providing endless love and support to those who knew her.
Beyond her family, Bette was an active member of her community. She volunteered at the local hospital and was a member of the women's auxiliary. Her infectious enthusiasm and bright spirit inspired countless others.
Bette's memory will forever be cherished by her loving husband, Jean, their children: Marie, Jacques, and Pierre, her grandchildren: Sophie, Lucas, Chloe, William, Emma, Max, and Lily, and her extended family and friends.
A private funeral service will be held on June 20, 2023, at St. Mary's Church in Calais, France. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to the Alzheimer's Society in Bette's memory.
As we mourn the loss of our beloved Bette, let us take comfort in the memories we hold dear. She was a pillar of strength, a beacon of hope, and a shining example of what it means to live a life filled with love. May her spirit continue to guide us and inspire us for years to come. Rest in peace, Bette. We love you now and always.
