Alexina Dussault

Description

Alexina Dussault was born in Saint-Hyacinthe on March 5, 1882. Her life, from what I gathered, was one that ended in quite a tragedy. The cause of her death was drowning which, in and of itself, could have been avoidable. She seemed like a person that easily conformed and portrayed her love for the craft, as brought by her willingness to accept the terms of her enlistment. Considering she was single for quite a while, this meant that she fully devoted her efforts strictly to her job/work. She did not have many people to return to, except her small family, which ultimately makes her death rather an unfortunate one. She was eventually buried in Nova Scotia. Overall I could not gather too much information, and judging from the outside would be difficult as I cannot assume how her life was simply based on some details, but I could generalize that she was an honorable worker and devoted her life to the craft.
