She was a graduate of Notre Dame High School. She was married to Laurier Poulin for 60 years. For the first part of her life they lived in Berlin and for 30 years they lived in the Clearwater, Florida area where they owned MONACO MOTEL and later retired in a retirement area, playing golf with friends and neighbors and playing cards with Berlin friends. She loved Clearwater Beach and certainly spoiled all her kids and grandkids.



Beatrice is survived by her children Gerard Poulin and wife Sylvia of Berlin, Lillian Gauvin and husband Raymond of The Villages, FL, Marcel Poulin of Berlin and Rachel Fysh and husband Gary of Upton, ME (Umbagog), her loving sister Lorraine Lachapelle of Berlin and sister-in-law Rita Payette of Dover, NH.

In addition to her parents and husband, she was predeceased by her brothers Emile Payette of Dover, NH, Jules Payette of Berlin and sister Louise (Payette) Demers of Berlin.



During her lifetime she had many hobbies. One special one was her wonderful years of playing enjoyable piano in Berlin and in Florida with family members and friends. Other hobbies were ice and roller skating, skiing, bowling, golf (even at age 90). Her swing was so beautiful. Lets not forget all the quilts and afrgans she made for everyone. For the past few years, she kept herself busy with crossword puzzles and going for day trips with her kids.



She had close relationships with her extended family in the Quebec City area where she visited often. She also kept good relations with her many nieces and nephews.
