GERTRUDE ST. ONGE
GoffstownâGertrude St. Onge, 75, passed away after a period of declining health at Catholic Medical Center in Manchester, surrounded by her loving family. She was the daughter of the late Adrien and Ida (LaBrie) Dionne.
Gertrude was born and raised in Manchester where she met and married her husband of 54 years, Donald D. St. Onge.
