Obituary of Michael James Robicheau, Sr.
Michael “Mike” James Robicheau, 52 of Lakeville, passed away August 17, 2021 in Grafton on Highway #221. Born in Kentville, he was the son of Sandra (Forsythe) and the late Robert “Bob” James Robicheau.
Michael woke up every day wearing his heart on his sleeve ready for an adventure and eager to help anyone anywhere anytime. He had an abundance of love that didn’t just stop with his family. He shared it with his extended family and friends throughout Canada.
Michael died doing what he loved doing …. riding his Harley! It was therapy he earned. The wind in his face took him where he wanted to be. His favorite times were spent when his brothers and sisters rode with him. His family and the brotherhood were a gold shield to him and extremely important in his life. Some of the other favorites Mike liked were reminiscing over old photos, listening to older country music and driving his Dodge truck.
During Mike’s career, he made many friends while working at Synergy, Merks, Leggs, Dykeview Farms, Sarsfields and Robicheau’s Live Receiving.
He was looked upon for guidance and protection and a sense of direction from many.
In addition to his mother Sandra Robicheau a.k.a “Ma”, Mike is survived by (in no particular order); his loving partner Erica Wellwood; brothers Kevin (Marjorie) Robicheau, Mark Robicheau and Jimmy Maillet; chosen sister Carolyn Ells; sons Michael (Gill) Robicheau, Jr. and Justin (Teia) Schofield; grandchildren Rielyn Schofield, Grayson Schofield, Jacob Durber, Peter Durber and Kirsten Durber; step-daughters Xenia Wellwood, Mystical Lynch and Nikita Macquarie; uncles Ron (Juanita) Robicheau; aunts Florence (Paul) Millett and Marilyn States; nephews Kyle Robicheau, Connor Robicheau, Josh Bourque and Justin Bourque; nieces Kayla Robicheau and Danielle Bourque; as well as many cousins and friends.
Besides his father, Mike was predeceased by grandparents Robert and Ann Patterson; Wylie and Lois Forsythe; great-grandfather Ridge Robicheau; and niece Sydney Atwell Robicheau.
Rest in peace Mike. We love you and will always remember you.
