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.
