At the Grove Long Term Care, Arnprior on Sunday, January 25, 2026. Thérèse Fulford (née Conliffe) of Deep River at the age of 82 years. Beloved wife of Donald Fulford. Dear stepmother of Allison Fulford (Heather) of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Melanie Fulford of Ottawa, and the late Jennifer Fulford. Cherished sister of Mary Walker and her husband Bill of Camrose, Alberta, Eve Corrin of Arnprior, Lucie Lemaitre and her husband Paul of Westford, Massachusetts, and Timothy Conliffe of Scarborough. Predeceased by three brothers David, Mark, and Christopher Conliffe, and three sisters Gloria Hanschell, Ingrid Barnett, and Jeannette Conliffe. Also survived by sisters-in-law Ena and Rosemary Conliffe who will cherish her memory. She was a fun loving and deeply adored Aunt to 25 nieces and nephews.
Thérèse was born in Barbados, the eighth of eleven children, the daughter of Rev. Clement and Marjorie Conliffe and at the age of thirteen moved to Pakenham.
She went on to pursue her calling in Nursing at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Montreal before embarking on a remarkable career as both an ICU and Emergency Room Nurse.
Thérèse served communities across Canada with her dedication and deep caring. For the past forty years she made her home in Deep River, where she was known and respected for her professionalism and generous spirit.
The family cannot express enough its thanks to all of the staff at the Grove, for taking such loving care of Thérèse.
Cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Life will be planned for the spring. In memory of Thérèse, donations to the Deep River and District Health Closer to Home Campaign, or to the Grove Long Term Care Friends & Family Council, Arnprior, would be gratefully appreciated.
Thérèse will forever remain in our hearts.
