BELISLE, Reginald –
Reginald Belisle, age 82, of Lake Helen Reserve Nipigon, Ontario passed away peacefully on Thursday, November 18th, 2021. At the time of passing he was at the Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences in Whitby, Ontario. He was born April 22, 1939 in Pembroke, Ontario. Reg truly lived an experienced life and through these times he has earned many nicknames; Bones, Hulk, Reg two-canoes and his favourite of them all was Papa & Gramps. In his younger years he lived on a farm where he grew a strong work ethic. He carried this throughout his life-time between Fish Guiding, Fire-fighting, Logging, Mining, and Security. In his leisure time he was a backyard mechanic, berry picker, fisherman, hunter, played baseball in black dress shoes, cooked, bowled, baked and played cards. He trapped with his wife and mother in-law on her trapline where he gained more experience skinning & tanning hides. Reginald’s favourite saying was “One more cast”. He showed patience teaching his grandchildren life-skills; He made many people laugh and was an avid storyteller, some of which involved the wild animals that came to sit with him. Reginald is predeceased by his parents Andrew and Lila Belisle, wife Mildred Jeannette Belisle. Siblings Alphonse Belisle & Loraine Belisle-Logan. Son Rheal Belisle, daughter Amy Bouchie. Grandchildren Michael, Dominic and Emma-Jade. He is survived by his sibling Omer Belisle(Leonie). Son Victor Boucher (Tammy) – Jesse, Justin, Montana & Dakota.
