Loving brother of Gerald (Bernadette), Guy (predeceased), and Andre (Rita). Cherished Brother-in-law to Sylvie Dale (Chris) and Anne Chandler (Bill). Special Son-in-law to Jean-Claude Riopel and Yolande (Gravelle).
Also survived by his nephews William, Darrell (Kristine), Christopher (Tasha), Alex (Kerrie), Nicholas and great-uncle to many.

He was involved with a number of organizations, including being a member of the Chevaliers de Colomb, Dowling (Conseil 10801), past President of the Onaping Falls Minor Hockey Association and amazing coach of many teams throughout the years, especially when coaching his daughter.
