Soeurette Dorilus, affectionately known as “Joujou,” peacefully departed this life on April 17, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. in Port-au-Prince, after courageously enduring two years of illness and suffering.
Born in Port-au-Prince into a family of twelve children, she was the tenth child of the late Laura Belizaire and the late Hilaire Dorilus. Quiet, humble, and reserved by nature, Joujou was deeply loved and appreciated by all who knew her. She completed both her primary and secondary education at Collège Blaise Pascal, where she developed a strong passion for cosmetology, a field she greatly cherished.
Soeurette Dorilus was a devoted mother who leaves behind her beloved son, Ricardo Lozandieu, to forever treasure her memory and unconditional love.
Our deepest sympathies goes to her aunts, Marie Anne Lemaire and her husband and her dear siblings: Marie Rolande Dorilus; Franck Dorilus; Laura Dorilus and her husband; and Jean Ricot Dorilus and his wife.
She leaves to mourn her passing many cherished nephews and nieces: Edou Civil; Delphine Augustin and her husband; Yves Kerline Cadet; Martine Cadet; Jean Mike Cadet; Junior Sandair; Mackenson Jean-Baptiste and his wife; Daphney Toussaint; Jose Ketler Dorilus and his wife; Joschie Dorelus and her husband; Jose Kender Dorilus; Jethro Dorilus; Stephen Dorilus; Cendy Laure Conserve; Datney Conserve; Danny Dorilus; Robert Dorilus; Sophia Dorilus; and Nehimar Dorilus.
She also leaves behind her beloved great-nephews and great-nieces: Tyson Civil; Dawson Civil; Lawsen Civil; Bedjine Sandaire; Kaim Lael Derosse; Daphne Alcide; Jodel Val; Aliah Val; Mylah Jean-Baptiste; Markryan Jean-Baptiste; Kerns Ander Prosper; Noah Gabriel Dorilus; Mason Mikael Dorilus; and Joshua John Dorilus.
She will also be deeply missed by her cousins: Yvena Noel Germain and her husband; Venos Noel and her husband; Agate Philogene and her husband; Barbara Barbancourt; Betty Barbancourt; Jean Ronny Noel and his wife; Johnny Noel and his wife; Wilkens Noel and his wife; Job Noel and his wife; and Daniel Philogene and his wife.
Though she has departed from this earthly life, the love, kindness, and memories Soeurette “Joujou” Dorilus shared with her family and friends will remain forever in our hearts.
