Jacqueline M. (Fleurant) LaBaire of Upton, died peacefully surrounded by family and friends on Tuesday, October 21. Her husband, Philip Michael LaBaire, of 56 years died in 2017.

Jacqueline, “Jackie” was born on June 3, 1936, in Milford, MA, the only child of Armand and Georgine (Lapierre) Fleurant. Raised in Upton, she attended Upton Public Schools, later graduating from St. Mary’s High School in Milford in 1954.

Jacqueline lived a full life. She enjoyed gardening, traveling with her husband and son, as well as spending time with her family in Quebec. Her faith gave her great strength.
