July 28, 1926 — May 12, 2018

LEOMINSTER- Fleur Ange (Chapdelaine) Bachand, 91, of Leominster, died Saturday, May 12, after an illness. Fleur- Ange was born July 28, 1926, in St.Victoire, Quebec, daughter of the late Euchariste and Attala (Leroux) Chapdelaine. She attended schools in Canada and immigrated to the United States in 1951 with her husband and young daughter. Fleur-Ange was a person who pursued her dreams with a “can do” spirit that served her well throughout her life. She was generous with her time, always willing to help those in need. During her many years as an Avon lady, she truly enjoyed getting to know different people. She and her husband traveled throughout North America in their motor home, and all over the the world. Fleur-Ange was known for her love of flowers and plants. Her French Canadian heritage was very important to her and she was a woman of deep faith. She was a member of St. Cecilia’s Parish and along with her husband Guy, was a devoted volunteer for over sixty years. In her later years, she was also a member of Our Lady of the Lake parish. Her husband of 60 years, Guy Bachand, died in 2007.
