Obituary
Harold Desveaux
December 25th, 1947 – January 21st, 2021
Harold passed away peacefully on January 21, 2021 at the Gimli Community Health Centre after a heroic battle with cancer.
He is remembered and missed by his beloved wife, Mary Desveaux, his children Danny (Alex), Kim (KC), Christine (Mark), Victor and Darryl (Sarah), and his grandchildren Clare, Grace, Mackenzie, Ruth, Regan, Tess, Camryn, Solomon, and Liam. He also leaves behind his siblings Imelda (Hugh), Paul (Joan), Lucille (Dave), Bernice (Victor), Nora (Charles), and Dina (Pete). He was also close with his brothers and sisters-in-law Jennie Lowther, Tony Michaluk (Delores), Michael Michaluk (Shirley) and Leo Aucoin, and all nieces, and nephews.
He was predeceased by parents Jimmy and Therese Desveaux, father-in-law and mother-in-law Michael and Mary Michaluk, sister Isabelle Aucoin, and brothers-in-law Emmanuel Doucet and Ken Lowther.
He will be forever missed by his family and his friends. He was our rock with a heart of gold who loved a good story, and a laugh. He was most at home in the bush, on a boat, or in the sky. He had many talents as a hunter, pilot, fisherman, avionics specialist, and archer, but his greatest gift was being the best husband, dad, and friend you could imagine. We will always love you, and hold your memories in our hearts.
Thank you to his health care team and the Gimli Community Health Centre for the thoughtful care he received throughout his illness, and in his final days.
His remains were cremated at his request, and a celebration of life will take place later this year.
