Graziella Martine Dorsainvil

Graziella Martine Dorsainvil loved deeply and cared so much about providing comfort, while also being a role model to all of us. She was a woman of faith that truly embodied the meaning of being a Christian. Martine was a support system for so many people. She was a beacon of wisdom and unmatched love to anyone who had the pleasure of knowing her. She was a joyful spirit that loved to laugh and always saw the humor on any situation.

She was born in Haiti in 1963 to Marie Lyse LaFleur and Generose Colatrella. She is survived by her beloved children, her sister and many nieces and nephews. To know her was to love her. She was a devoted wife to her late husband, and loving mother to her children and an incredible sister, aunt, friend, colleague or so much more.

Martine lived with prayer, with grace, with open arms to everyone, and with a constant willingness to help. Her door was always open. We will miss that deeply, but we should also carry it with us and walk the same path she showed us.

There are no words to fully explain how grateful and blessed we are to have had her in our lives. Even in this sad time, I find comfort knowing she is with her mother, siblings, and husband, and no longer suffering.

Let us celebrate her life, honor her legacy, and never forget her.
