It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of our cherished husband, father and grandfather, Rosaire. He will be deeply missed by his beloved wife of 62 years, Helen and their three children: Vic (Lesley), Sharmaine (Brent Moir), LaReine (Robert Saukarookoff). He also leaves to mourn his seven adoring grandchildren: Vicki, Melissa (Steve), Allison (Scott), Amanda, Chelsea, Bobbi (Chase) and Cole. He was anxiously awaiting the arrival of his first great grandchild due in August. Papa leaves behind a strong legacy based on family values, faith, work ethic and commitment, as well as his quick wit and memorable sense of humor. He is survived by his siblings: Lawrence, Therese, Simone, Simeon and Lou, as well as many treasured in-laws, nieces and nephews.
