Maurice Francois.

Born on the island of Rodrigues to Edith and Romuld.

Maurice passed away peacefully in his sleep on Monday 13th July 2026. At the time of his passing he was 79 years old. Too soon gone for those that loved him, but a blessed life filled with music, laughter, and unwavering love.

Maurice leaves behind the love of his life and soul mate Marie Renee and devoted children Adrian, Andrew, and Jill. His family was his world, and nothing brought him greater happiness than being surrounded by those he loved most.

A cherished Grand-père to his much-loved grandchildren: Faith, Olivia, Madeline, Ty, Felix, and Marley. They will forever remember him for his playful nature, silly jokes, and secret chocolate supply. To them, he was larger than life, a safe place, and a constant source of fun.

Though his passing has left a profound void in the hearts of all who knew him, the love and laughter he gave so generously and the memories he created will live on in his family forever. He will be deeply missed, lovingly remembered, and always carried in the hearts of those who were blessed to call him theirs.

Messages from Friends & Family

Dear Maurice, You are one of the kindest, friendliest, funniest, and most family-oriented people I have ever known. I remember one time when I went to Olivia’s birthday party. You saw me standing there alone, so you brought me a beer and a hot dog. You told me not to be shy and to keep drinking—and I did! You will be greatly missed. Sapoo Starr

My condolences to Marie Renee, Jill and Andrew. Maurice was a great man, full of fun, laughter. Always happy. He loved his family and was a devoted husband to Renee. A great uncle who always talked to us as children and never came empty handed. Thanks for all the memories and also the chocolates you gifted us as children every time you visited us. Love Desiree and family.

Desiree Francois
