North Bay community reflects on life of Annette Dionne, last of famous quintuplets

December 28, 2025

The death earlier this week of Annette Dionne, the last surviving sister of the famous quintuplets, is the end of a difficult era, but it is not the end of their story, her nephew says.

Brian Callahan’s mother was an older sibling to the Dionne quintuplets. He said in an interview that his aunt, like the other four sisters, was a private person after being in the spotlight for the first 18 years of her life.
