On the morning of November 1, 2023, Marguerite Cherfils passed away peacefully at her home in Brockton at the age of 85. By her side, her two children -Salandre and Slandy Cherfils.

She was the widow of Salnave Cherfils. Together they happily shared 44 years of marriage, until his passing in April of 2021.

The youngest of Louidor and Ulia Julien's six children, Marguerite or Tidre, as she was affectionately known, was born in Cap Haitien, Haiti.

As a result of their generous spirits, Marguerite and Salnave were both regarded with great esteem within the Haitian community of Brockton. Until her retirement at the age of 65, Marguerite worked as a dedicated CNA at several rehabilitation facilities including Woodridge Nursing and Rehab, West Acres, and Blue Hills Health. She was widely regarded and recognized as a hardworking and compassionate caregiver.

A woman of deep faith, she carried an unwavering belief that there was no trial or struggle greater than God's grace and she held onto that belief fiercely and confidently.

Along with her surviving children, she will be remembered by her stepsons Pierre and Salex Cherfils; her step grandson Michael (son of Pierre); niece Marie Manigat and her husband Ernst and their daughter Laryssa and son Alain; nephew Louidor Julien and his wife Foufon, and their sons Andy and Lubens and daughter Angela (also Marguerite's goddaughter); her sisters-in-law Astrid Cherfils, Luciene Cherfils, Rose Baptiste and countless extended family and friends: Cherfils, Baptiste, Talcius, Dominique, Eugene, Dubois, Belizaire, Silvain, Grandchamp, Mondesir and Julien Family

From the very beginning she was raised to believe God walked through life with her and she goes to rejoin Him now.

She will be missed by many.

Marguerite's funeral mass will be held at Christ the King Church, 54 Lyman St., Brockton at 11:00 AM followed by interment in Calvary Cemetery, Brockton. Calling hours will be held prior IN THE CHURCH from 9:30-10:45 AM.
