Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

In the early 1954, Emilie decided to take the veil and enrolled as a postulant at a convent in Ste Agathe, north of Montreal. That same year, in August 1954, Emilie died alone in her bed at the convent. She suffocated to death during an epileptic seizure. The world was shocked. No hint of her condition had ever crept into the newspapers. The affliction had not become apparent until she was twelve - three years after she moved into her family home. The Dionnes, feeling that it was shameful, had kept it a dark secret.

Today, only C㩣ile and Annette are alive of the quints. They still live together in St Bruno (A suburb of Montreal).

In February, 1970, after Marie had moved into and apartment of her own in Montreal, Annette became alarmed because her sister's daily phone calls suddenly ceased. There was no answer at her apartment, and Annette's husband gained entrance through a window and discovered what had been suspected: Marie had been dead for several days, apparently of a blood clot in the brain.

Yvonne died on June 23, 2001 from cancer.
