Not sure what to say?

i MET MR. MONGRAIN OVER THE PHONE IN 2023. I HAD VOLUNTEERED TO HELP DORNBEKERS AND NEEDED SOME ONE TO PROVIDE THE MATERIAL FOR MY PROJECTS. HE VOLUNTEERED TO PROVIDED A PALLET OF CUTOFFS AND HE SAID HE WOULD DO MORE IF I NEEDED MORE. IT MADE THE DIFFERENCE TO A LOT OF LITTLE CHILDREN AND I THANKED HIM PROFUSELY. I LOVE THOSE THAT GIVE TO HELP OTHER AND THAT WAS WHAT I EXPERIENCED WITH MR. MONGRAIN. I AM SO SORRY FOR HIS LOVED ONES.

Chris and I met while working at North Pacific Lumber. It was hard not to know how outgoing he was. I was sitting across aisle from him. We became friends and stayed friends. He was so kind to me, my family and friends. Meeting his family and friends, you could feel the love people had for Chris. Rest in Heaven and God Bless.

Our family knew Chris through CRYC and Emerson Hardwood. He was dedicated to preserving the memory and contribution Slim Jordan made to CRYC and the current location of the Club. We appreciated his kindness to our family, especially when Chris (2005) and Wayne (2018) passed...and, at the Poker Runs. Our prayers and condolences to his family. May your memories bring you solace.

Chris was my customer. I enjoyed our time spent talking business, his humor and passion. Thanks for being a friend.

Chris was one-of-a-kind. He filled the room with his big personality and nonstop energy. I could always count on him for support, kindness and good laugh. My thoughts are with Sandra and all his family.

I am Chris Mongrain´s cousin Catherine. I always appreciated his wit and knowledge shared at family gatherings. Meg´s 80th birthday was a dazzling party and my parents loved it. My Dad, Bob Rudolph, was Meg´s cousin but they looked like siblings. He always said that all the family gift of gab had landed in Chris (his grandfather Bill was active in politics). A good man, with a lively personality.

My heart is with you, Sandra, during this difficult time.

There will never, ever be another Chris Mongrain. He will be sorely missed. Pete & Michelle Grillo
