Obituary for
Edmond Chenard
Chenard, Edmond Armond Joseph
August 22, 1937 – October 25, 2018
For 81 years, « Ed », « Gramps », « Bingo » brightened the lives of those around him with his kindness and unwavering willingness to help others. He will be greatly missed and forever loved by his wife of fifty-nine and a half years Muriel, as well as his children and their families (Cynthia, Damian, Jocelyn & Barry, Logan & Jack, Tony, Cathy, Ryan & Stef, and Ally). He will be fondly remembered by friends and extended family for his love of playing cards and dancing, for his bountiful gardens and « fix it » abilities, for singing & theatre shows and guitar sing-a-longs on the front porch. A man of deep faith, Ed loved his church community and being a member of the choir. He was a dedicated and active member of the Knights of Columbus for fifty-nine years. His volunteer community involvement included The Bayshore Tenants Association, Build a Mountain of Food, the Community Christmas Dinner and he was a founding member of the Perth Food Bank.
Ed leaves us here to join his grandsons Kyle & Connor in eternal life, having made the world a little better place for those of us who remain.
Ed’s wishes were to forgo a wake and funeral, but all are invited to a Memorial Mass at 11:00 AM on Tuesday, October 30, 2018 at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, 38 Wilson Street East, Perth immediately followed by a reception at noon a thet Blair & Son Funeral Home, 15 Gore Street, Perth ON.
