Mrs. Descoteaux worked in the Uxbridge Mills in Lowell as an invisible mender. She also was employed at ITT and BKC of Lawrence for over 20 years.
Mrs. Descoteaux, also known as "Ma", "Grandma" and "Great Grandma" was a wonderful woman who aimed to please everyone. She loved having her family and her granddogs, Bailey and Chloe at her warm, comfortable, wonderful home. She loved to cook and bake, especially for the Holidays. Christmas and Birthday celebrations seemed to make her so happy to be with so many family members that would be there.

She also had many wonderful summers with her family at Salisbury Beach.
