Marc Robitaille

ROBITAILLE, Marc (1930-2019)

In loving memory of Marc who passed away at the Kirkland & District Hospital on Sunday, November 24, 2019. He was predeceased by his parents, his brothers: Yvon, Jean-Paul & Hector, one sister Louisette and his first wife Pearl of fifty years. He is survived by his second wife Grace Nychuk-Robitaille, his children: Denise (Dennis Taillon), Linda (Ghislain Labreque), Ann (Jean-Guy Labreche), Richard Robitaille (Maureen) and Carol (Yvon Sanche). Marc is also survived by his step-children: Rick Nychuk (Cathy), Terry Nychuk (Louise) and many grandchildren & great grandchildren.

He enjoyed living in Kenogami after he retired from FPAPA. He spent hours in his gazebo & garage doing wood carvings and chopping wood was his passion.

The family wishes to extend warm and heartfelt thanks to the staff at Extendicare for the care and compassion shown towards Marc over the last year.

In keeping with Marc’s wishes, cremation has taken place and a private family service will be held at a later date.

    My dear friends: It pains me to hear of Marc’s suffering and passing. It was my wonderful joy to be the organist at Marc and Grace’s wedding . And now so much time has passed. In the midst of pain and suffering and the endless flow of time we can count on the kindness of others and the mercy of God’s presence. All the best, David G.

    We are so sorry to hear of Marc’s passing. He was a wonderful son-in-law to George and Laura Perron; taking the time to drop in for a long chat during his many frequent visits, sometimes with Pearl and other times without her, but always with their gift of a couple of pairs of slippers that she had knit for them.

    He will be remembered as a kind person with a beautiful smile and an infectious laugh who will be missed by all. Our condolences to everyone.
