1961-2025
It is with deep sorrow that the family of Marc Lalonde announces his sudden passing after a brief battle with cancer. Predeceased by his sister, Micheline (Joe), and brothers, Guy (Pauline) and Yves (Jo), he leaves behind his wife, Beverly Gillis, sons, Michael (Paloma), and Benjamin, sisters Claudette (Bill) and Marie (John), and a joyfully large number of nieces and nephews and their many children.
Marc had four passions in his life: the Montreal Canadiens, playing guitar, his work and, above all, his family. He passed on his work ethic and his love of hockey and music to his sons. He was exceedingly proud of them.
When Marc began a BA program at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, he immediately set a goal to teach at the university level. He did not yet recognize his academic ability but liked to dream big. He thrived on challenge and leaned into his studies at Concordia University where he earned an MA and PhD, then began teaching. Lecturing and publishing, when time allowed, he found great pleasure and kinship in his work in Concordia’s department of Religions and Cultures.
He will be dearly missed.
A visitation will be held at J.C. Cardinal Funeral Home, 560 chem. du Bord-du-Lac-Lakeshore, Dorval on January 16 (2–5 pm and 7-9 pm), followed by a Celebration of Life ceremony at Sarto-Desnoyers Community Center, 1335 chem. du Bord-du-Lac-Lakeshore, Dorval on January 17 at 12 pm.
