Real Chabot
1935-2018
CHABOT, Real Joseph Adrien: Our Dad slipped into eternal peace on
Tuesday, December 4th in his 84th year. His life was woven together
by many events beginning as a young boy in Quebec, until his final
days in Cambridge, Ontario. Real’s devotion to his wife Mary, of
61 years, was evident as he continually called out to hold her hand
right up to the final moments. As a caring father, he quietly showed
his support to his children. His dry sense of humour and quick wit
made people around him laugh out loud. Summer months were filled with
time spent at the horseshoe pits and tending his garden, especially
the tomato plants; while the winter months allowed for card playing
with his family and snowmobiling. His children Bob (Shelly), Mike
(Jackie), Steve (Clare), and Diane (Glynden Cross) received his gift
of learning through listening and the ability to be present.
Real’s grandchildren, Jacob, Christina, Lindsey (Alex Segler),
Reid, Jennifer (David De Guzman), Mirranda and Cameron were able to
bring out the youthful side of dad with silly antics and funny faces.
His two great grandchildren Marisa and Maverick will have the honour
of continuing this legacy. He will be dearly missed by his caring
brothers and sisters who gave so freely of their time and gifts. Thank
you: Gisele, Marcel (Brian), Claude, Roger (Sandy), Jocelyne, Denise
(Roger), Carol (Ken), Daniel (Nancy), and Richard (Mary). Dad is
predeceased by his two beautiful children David and MaryAnne, his
siblings Yvon (Louise), John, Huguette, and Andre (Linda) and parents
Rosaire and Prezilda Chabot. A special thank you to all the staff at
St. Andrews Terrace, you are wonderful. “Into your hands I
commit my spirit; deliver me, Lord, my faithful God. “ Psalm
31:5. Family and friends are invited to a visitation at
