Obituary for Monica Ann Rondeau (Bruce)
On a windy cold day on March 7, 2023 Monica Rondeau reached to the endless sky and gathered her golden wings while surrounded by her loving family at the McClure Miller Respite House in Colchester, Vermont.
The bubbly spirit, Monica was born on March 18, 1947 to Fay and Vera Bruce. She spent her childhood on their family farm in Williston and attained many of her skills in gardening, canning, sewing and baking during her youth.
After graduating from C.V.U Highschool Monica chose to work in the health care field and became a Phlebotomist and Lab Technician at the U.V.M medical center for 45 years. In addition to her years of service Monica was always busy gardening, canning, quilting, embroidering or cooking up some of the tastiest dishes in her kitchen. Which of course she shared with everyone, especially her family. Monica Married her life long partner, David Rondeau on December 22, 1979. They resided in Hinesburg for many years until her death.
Monica is survived by her husband of 43 years, David Rondeau, her son Joshua and Beth Rondeau of Colchester Vermont and her beloved grandson Wyatt Rondeau. Her siblings, Dianna and Joe Dufresne, Lydia Blackburn, Fay Clarke Bruce Jr (Joe) and Sharon Bruce, Shirley and Roger King, Michael Bruce, Kathie Bruce and Noreen and David Rivers.
