• Monique Moncrieff (nee Sincennes)

Monique passed away peacefully on January 16th, 2026, at the age of 70.

Dear daughter of the late Gérard Sincennes and the late Françoise

Desjardins.

She is lovingly remembered by her children Patrick (Julie Chartrand) and

Mélissa, who were her greatest joy. She was the cherished grandmother

to her beloved Carter, whose presence brought her immense happiness.

She will be deeply missed by her partner, Philip Gerrard, whose

companionship brought her comfort and joy. She also leaves behind her

sister Joanne Serafin (Robert), along with extended family, nieces, and

nephews, all of whom will hold her memory close.

A loyal and steadfast friend, Monique built lifelong bonds defined by

warmth, sincerity, and quiet generosity. She will be remembered for her

genuine kindness, her hospitality, and the love she shared with all.

A celebration of Monique’s life will be announced in the coming weeks.

Interment will take place in the spring at Notre Dame Cemetery in

Ottawa, Ontario.

The family extends heartfelt gratitude to the doctors and nurses at The

Ottawa Hospital – General Campus for their compassionate care.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the CHEO Foundation are appreciated in

honour of her deep fondness for the organization.
