Maurice est né le 6 mars 1917 dans la maison de ses parents au sud de Cardinal. Il était le 7e enfant d'une famille de 8. Ses parents Joseph Boisvert et Éva Gareau l'ont précédé dans la tombe lorsqu'il était encore très jeune ainsi que 2 frères et 4 sœurs: S. Bertha (Sœur Marie-Archangela), Éméla LaFrance, Adélard et Yvonne décédés en bas âge, S. Yvonne et Adrien. En 1939 il a épousé sa bien-aimée Lucie Pantel qu'il laisse dans le deuil après 65 ans de mariage. Il laisse aussi dans le deuil dix enfants : Normand (Léonie), Lorraine, Joseph (Catherine), Roland (Yvette), Aurèle (Rachel), Estelle, Marcel (Linda), Ronald (Anita), Maurice (Rita) et Roseline (Charles). Les 17 petits-enfants manqueront beaucoup leur grand-père : Alain (Louise), Ray-Allen (Chantelle), Denise (William), Samuel, Richard, Joelle (Michael), Christine (David), Stéphane, Pascal, Jonathan, Dominique, Noël, Jacqueline, Josée, Daniel, Claude et Nicole en plus de 10 arrière-petits-enfants. Il laisse aussi dans le deuil sa sœur Irène Leece, et ses quatre belles-sœurs: Angèle Brundige, Jeanne Fouasse, Marie Comte et Suzanne Comte et ainsi que de nombreux neveux et nièces. Maurice a passé presque toute sa vie à Lourdes sur la ferme paternelle. Le métier de fermier qu'il a exécuté avec beaucoup passion et d'ardeur, lui a apporté beaucoup de satisfaction. Faire les foins et les battages avec les voisins lui étaient très chers. Il avait un profond attachement à sa communauté de Lourdes et il était davantage reconnaissant pour le support reçu lorsque sa santé a commence à l'affaiblir. Il nous rappelait souvent les bons soins reçus à domicile et l'attention particulière qu'il recevait des médecins et de tout le personnel de l'hôpital. La famille remercie le Grand Maître, qui lui a accordé 22 années de santé de plus après qu'un diagnostique avait indiqué qu'il avait un cancer terminal en 1983. On se souviendra toujours de son bon sens d'humour qu'il garda jusqu'à la fin ainsi que de sa grande générosité à l'égard de toute sa famille. Adieu mon cher époux, papa, grand-père.

In her years of retirement she has given herself totally to hours of prayer and meditation. Her heart was full of love for the prayerful people she met in charismatic prayer groups. The time she spent in listening to people in pain, in praying with sick people, in helping people search their way to God, were her beloved, and time with them was so precious.
