LAMARRE: Aldege John "Foune" Passed away peacefully at the Mattawa Hospital on Friday, November 15th, 2013 at the age of 83. Predeceased by his wife Beatrice (Tang) 1999. He is survived by his loving children, Ernest (Diane), Richard (Claire), Monique Joanisse (Randy), Suzanne Goulet (Robert), Maurice (Rhea), Lisa Hoorelbeck, Barbara Racine (Raymond), Janet (Teddy Joanisse) and Jocelyne Deschamps (Ron). He will be greatly remembered by his grandchildren, great- grandchildren, nieces, nephews, brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law. Predeceased by his grandchildren, Melissa and Jordan. Cherished brother of Alda Sivert (Raymond). Predeceased by his parents, Desiree and Blanche Lamarre and his siblings, Lorenzo, Albert, Arthur, Claude, Claudette, Doreen Pitt, Florence Turcotte and Francis Lantz. Foune enjoyed the life that Northern Ontario provided. While he spent a great deal of time camping and fishing, he will be greatly remembered for his “green thumb” in the garden, especially for his tomatoes. While Foune will be missed for playing a great game of crib or checkers he will be truly missed for his kind, generous and humorous nature. At this time the family would like to send a special thank you to his sister, Alda, for never leaving his side and sharing your precious memories. We would also like to thank Dr. Gushe and the nursing staff for the care that they provided to our father during this difficult time. Aldege's wishes were to be cremated, as such, please join us for a celebration of his life at the Martyn & Sloan "Mattawa Chapel " on Monday (today) from 3-5 & 7-9 PM. A Memorial Mass will be held at St.Anne's Roman Catholic Church on Tuesday November 19th, a. 11:00 am. Donations to the Canadian Diabetes Associations will be gratefully acknowledged as expressions of sympathy. Online condolences at www.martynfh.com
