With heavy hearts, we said goodbye to the love of Mom’s
life, a great husband of almost 55 years, the best Dad ever,
and the most awesome Pé-père. As per his wishes,
he died peacefully at home with his family last Friday evening, after
losing his 3rd battle with Non-Hodgkin’s
lymphoma. His life was his family and especially
his grandkids since they came along. A life long fisherman,
first lobster fishing for many years, then herring seining aboard the
Lady Janice for his last 17 working years with Ti-Mel, Dad always
enjoyed being on the water. Roger was also a 25 year past
member of the West Pubnico Volunteer Fire Department. After
retiring from fishing, he still traveled to the wharves, and checked
AIS for who was fishing, especially for the boats his son Richard was
on. He always looked forward to the daily yarns he
shared with the boys, especially at Roy a ‘Spark’s’, and since
retiring, enjoyed spending lots of time with Mederic in his
shed.
Dad was a kind and gentle, loving man with
patience galore, and will be remembered fondly by everyone who knew
him.
Special thanks go out to the paramedics, the first
responders, the various doctors and nurses at Yarmouth Hospital, Dr.
Forward and his nurse Danielle in Halifax, to our pharmacists Adam and
Angela, and the various VON nurses who have helped Dad through his
ordeal. Also very touching were the several visits by Glenn Diggdon,
who was very compassionate, helpful and understanding during our
difficult time.
Donations in memory can be made to VON Yarmouth or the Gilles Boudreau
Cancer Fund.

Death notice for the town of: Middle West Pubnico, Province: Nova Scotia
It is with great sadness that I heard of Roger’s passing. He had a long battle that he faced with positivity, a smile, and much faith and courage. Roger was unending in his love with Anne and faith in those who were trusted with his care. It has been my extreme pleasure to have been a small part in Roger’s journey.
