Georgette T. (Rochette) (Tousignant) (LaJoie) Bilodeau, age 94, a longtime resident of Tyngsborough, passed away on Sunday, August 31, 2025, at her home. She was the wife of the late Arthur Tousignant, the late Henry LaJoie, and the late Yvon Bilodeau.
She was born in Lowell, MA on December 6, 1930 and was the daughter of the late George and Jeanette (Gagne) Rochette, owners of Rochette’s Diner on Merrimack Street in Lowell. She received her early education at Notre Dame Academy in Tyngsborough and was a graduate of Lowell High School. She then furthered her education to become a medical technician in Miami, Florida.
Georgette was a kind and gentle woman who was selfless and always giving to all. She was an excellent cook and looked forward to family visits. Everyone who knew her enjoyed her homemade fudge, delicious pies, and fruit squares. Her kitchen door was always open to anyone who came by. She was a foster parent for many years, welcoming multiple children into her home. Georgette will always be remembered as a true lady who was reserved, traditional, soft-spoken, and had a kind word for everyone.
Georgette is survived by five children, Paul Tousignant and his wife Dottie, Linda Odlum, Pam Rae and her husband Gordon, Brian Rodrigues and his partner Lisa Carpentier, and Nicole Bilodeau; five grandchildren, Jeff Tousignant and his partner Shirley Smith, Kristin Tousignant and her partner John Philbrick, Alia Mohammed and her partner Justin Vuylsteke, Brandon Bilodeau, and Leeann Rae and her husband Nicholas Evans; three great grandchildren, Jenna, Kaylee and Jacob; and one great great grandchild, Skylar. Georgette was predeceased by her son Todd Bilodeau, who she cared for during his lifetime with love and affection. She also leaves behind two caring friends, Donna and David Brandt. The family would like to thank Beacon Hospice for their care and kindness during Georgette's last few weeks at home, as well as Tom Hoang and Arnie Camerom of Adult Foster Care, for their many years of caring service.
In accordance with her wishes, Funeral Services were held privately for her family.
