She was predeceased by her son Kenneth; and sisters, Sonya and Teresa.

Armande worked at Pleasant Mountain Moccasin in Bridgton for 25 years, retiring in 1999. She was a member of The Church of Christ in South Paris, and really enjoyed being with her brothers and sisters in the church.

Some of her favorite activities were crocheting, dancing, listening to country music, playing cards with friends and spending time with her family.
