Eugene was a miner all his working career, which brought him from Quebec to B.C. and everywhere in between. He was full of energy, always puttering, building or inventing some masterpiece. He was
known as the man who liked to brighten his world with many lights and was the master of bling. He loved the outdoors with fishing and boating. Gene was passionate about music and always had music
playing. Respecting his wishes, there will not be a service. A Celebration of Life will follow at a later date. Donations in Gene’s memory may be made to the charity of your choice.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of DUGAY Eugene Gene 1945 2022..
