Leonard’s Obituary
Passed peacefully at home, surrounded by his family, Leonard Michael Briand on Thursday, December 16th, 2021, at the age of 84 years.
He was the youngest and last living child of Annie and Noel Briand.
Leonard leaves to mourn with many loving memories: wife Dorothy, whom he married on December 27th, 1962 and spent 59 wonderful years with; six children: Glen Retieffe (Lynette), Robert (Paula), Leonard Jr., Alicia (Eugene White), Glen (Janice), and Shelley; six grandchildren: Dillon, Kiara, Cassady, Ethan, Adam, and Quentin; as well as a circle of extended family and friends.
The family would like to say a special thank you to Dr. Michaels and all the caring staff at the hospital, especially the dialysis unit.
A deep thank you to the ambulance workers who encouraged and supported Leonard.
A heartfelt thank you to his caregiver, Gerard Hinks. He brought Leonard much joy with his stories and songs. Gerard made possible a visit from Peter Jacobs whose songs comforted Leonard through his long illness. Thank you Peter Jacobs.
