SACO – Yvette L. (Cote) Thibeault, 86, passed away peacefully on Dec. 17, 2025, at Gosnell Memorial Hospice House surrounded by her loving family.
Yvette was born in Biddeford on May 20, 1939 to Philip Cote and Fedora (Picard) Cote. She grew up in Biddeford where she attended elementary school and high school.
In 1962, Yvette married Normand Thibeault and they had five children, Donna, Donald, Raymond, Brian, and Diane, before purchasing a house and moving to Saco in 1973. She was also the proud “Grammy” of three grandchildren, Casey, Brianna, and Sixx.
After dedicating most of her life to successfully raising a happy healthy family, Yvette worked for the Maine Turnpike Authority for 22 years until retiring in 2011.
She enjoyed spending time with her children and grandchildren, who were her proudest achievement. She will be missed and remembered dearly for her kindness and compassion to all. May she rest in peace.
