Death notice for the town of: Edmonton, Province: Alberta
To Mary and all of Rogers family,
Please accept our sincerest condolences on Roger’s passing. We met Roger and Dianne at the Therrien Family Reunions in years past. We always enjoyed speaking with Roger and hearing the many stories he had to tell of his earlier years on the farm and his camping trips. He was always very supportive of the Therrien Association and for that we are very appreciative. He was blessed with a long and very interesting life.
We will miss his presence but still remember him at future Therrien Reunions.
Sincerely, Michael DeConti
Therrien Association Board Member
