Roger Robichaud, 88, of McKees Mills, passed away peacefully
surrounded by family on Tuesday February 7, 2023 at the
Stella-Maris-de-Kent Hospital in Sainte-Anne-de-Kent. Born in
Saint-Paul, he was the third child born to the late Antoine and Anna
(Richard) Robichaud and was predeceased by his wife of 57 years,
Claire (Ladouceur).
Roger was the deeply loved partner of Geraldine Robichaud
Leger, and world’s greatest Dad to Norm (Karen) and Michelle (Eric);
super grandfather to Nick and Luna, and grand-pepere to Adele, Blair,
and Lyanna; best brother to Jeannine (late Roger), Rita (Archille),
late Ulysse, and late Geraldine (Robert); loving adopted stepdad to
Phyllis (Kenny), Jean (Gisele), Paul (Jennifer), Roger, Marie-Paul
(Yvon), Lucille (Claude), Adrienne Allain (Rhéal), and
their families; loyal ami to his many cousins, favourite uncle to
numerous nieces and nephews, and tremendous friend to all. He was so
well respected and caring that it is impossible to name all those
whose lives he touched.
Like many at the time, he left home to make his fortune in
Ontario. He became a window washer and eventually owned his own
business, all the while working for Rodger’s Maintenance out of
Toronto. He was so fast and unafraid of heights that his coworkers
nicknamed him “Jet”.
After years in Scarborough/Oshawa and a short time in
Moncton, Roger and Claire moved to Ottawa to be close to their
daughter, Michelle. Roger was a devoted husband and caregiver to his
wife until her death in 2015.
Roger met Geraldine in 2017, and it was love at first sight.
They were inseparable ever since, with one final move for Roger from
Ottawa to Saint-Antoine so that they could be together. He often said
how happy he was in this final phase of his life.
Roger left laughter and love in his wake wherever he went,
and will be sorely missed. Roger, we love you. Rest in peace in
heaven.
The family would like to thank the nurses, doctors, and staff
at Stella-Maris hospital for their exceptional care during the last
month of Roger’s life. Please consider donations to the palliative
care services of Stella-Maris-de-Kent Hospital in Roger’s
name.

mass will be celebrated on Monday February 13 at 2 pm. Visiting hours
