We Remember
GELINAS, Yvon
—
Yvon went to be with the Lord suddenly and unexpectedly July 31, 2019 at the age of 67. Survived by his loving wife Marie of 33 years; sons Chris (Kristann) Allan, Greg (Trina) Allan, Jeremy Johnson, and Miguel Gelinas; daughter Renee (Lam) Dinh; 6 grandchildren; sisters Celine, Louise, and Lise; and brothers Gaston and Mario. He was predeceased by brother Ron and parents Bernard and Estelle.
A special thanks to Dr. Jen Bruce and the staff of KGH and Kelowna Fire and Ambulance for their compassion and efforts to save Yvon. “I could not have asked for a more professional team of people and the two young men that performed CPR on my husband before the paramedics got here. Forever grateful to you all.”
A private local Memorial Service will be held near the end of August and a Graveside Service will take place at a later date on the East coast.

C’est un immense vide que de perdre un membre de la famille. Vous en savez quelques chose. Même s’il vivait très loin, il restait toujours votre frère d’amour de coeur et de sang. On est avec vous. Fernande XXXX
