It is with deep sorrow that the family of Joe Fafard announces his passing on March 16, 2019, at his home in Lumsden, Saskatchewan. The international visual artist died peacefully, surrounded by his loved ones.
According to his partner, Alyce Hamon, “Joe died the way he lived, simply, unpretentiously, in complete serenity, with a twinkle in his eye, but above all with the full love of his family and friends.”
He leaves to mourn his spouse Alyce Hamon, and their children Solenne Hamon-Fafard and Julien Hamon-Fafard, as well as his children Joël Fafard (Megan Mansbridge), Misha Fafard (Darcy Jordan), Gina Fafard (Curtis Sheschuk), their mother Susan Wiebe, and his grandchildren Zach, Fynn, Theo, Maren, and Declan.
A ceremony celebrating the life of Joe Fafard will be held privately by the family. A public ceremony will be announced at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, the family encourages those who wish to, to donate to the Regina Palliative Home Care, c/o Hospitals of Regina Foundation, 225 – 1874 Scarth Street, Regina, SK S4P 4B3 in Joe’s memory.
