Lorraine Gloria Boisvert, 88, passed away peacefully on August 6, 2025, surrounded by love. Born on December 8, 1936, in Woonsocket, RI, she lived a life defined by joy, faith, and selfless devotion.
Lorraine delighted in dancing in her younger years and later worship dancing in her churches—her laughter and grace lighting up every room. She loved to read and spending time in her gardens, finding joy and peace where she could escape the stresses of life. Most of all, she cherished gathering her family together as often as possible, creating memories filled with warmth, laughter, and love.
Her hands crafted more than quilts; they stitched together comfort and compassion. She lovingly created quilts for those in the hospital, handmade toys for children, and devoted her time to the local food pantry, offering help with both skill and heart.
Lorraine’s life was anchored in her deep faith in Jesus Christ. She carried a firm belief that God would always provide, and she extended that assurance to everyone she met. She loved and cared for all, gently encouraging others toward salvation and sharing her trust in God’s provision with a sincere warmth that left a lasting mark.
Her quiet acts of service, caring spirit, and unfailing faith breathed peace into the lives of many. Through her humble kindness and steady faith, Lorraine quietly transformed the world around her.
Lorraine was preceded in death by the love of her life, husband, Richard T. Boisvert. She is survived by her children, Michael Boisvert and wife Phyllis (deceased), Daniel Boisvert and wife Kathryn, Lori-Ann Arnold and husband Eric, Richard M. Boisvert, Russell Boisvert and wife Sally; brother, Robert Anger; 18 grandchildren; and 18 great-grandchildren.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, September 6, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at Summer Hill Baptist Church, 663 Summer Hill Church Road, Carthage, NC 28327. Family and friends are invited to gather to celebrate a life lived fully in love and faith with a reception to follow in the fellowship hall.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to St. Jude Children’s Hospital.
