Dear Pat,
On behalf of our family I would like to express our Sincere Sympathy for the loss of your dear husband and soulmate. As young girls our connection to the Nicholson family is such a fond memory. I know mom held both you Pat and Rene in high regard. Our visits to Rocanville as kids and the family times with the Nicholsons in Lafleche and Moose Jaw have given us special memories. Both Mom- Clarice (march 03) and Henri (Nov 00) have passed away. Please know our thoughts and...

Rene Poirier was one of the finest men I have ever known, and was well loved by the Nicholson family. I was lucky enough to be his sister in law for 20 years and feel a terrible sadness that I will never see him again.

Uncle Rene was a kind and gentle man. It is with great sadness I heard of his illness and passing. His family loved him very much and we wish we had been able to spend more time with him in his later years,
Loving niece,

Dear Pat
I was sorry to hear of Rene's passing. I enjoyed talking to him at the Locker Plant when I would pop in after school. I have thought of you both often over the years
Sincerely

Dear Pat,
I was so sorry to hear of Rene's passing I was just an average guy who's life was made better by knowing someone as fantastic as Rene. I will never forget his humour and kindness.
Warmest regards, John Saunders

Dear Pat,
It was with great sadness that we read of Rene's passing. We know this must be a very difficult and lonely time for you Pat and would like you to know that it is with sympathy that we send these too few words to you.
We remember you both with affection and cherish the bright moments you gave us over the years on our many visits to Oak Bay.
Thinking of you at this time.

I would like to send my heart felt condolescences to the family of Rene Poirier.
I worked with Renee many years ago at Graham's Meat.
My memories of Rene are fond ones. He had such a pleasant, caring and helpful nature. As my supervisor he was very patient and tolerant. Always had a wonderful smile to share with those he worked with and those he was serving. It was my first real job and Rene made it a wonderful and pleasure experience for me.
Thank You
Sincerely
Catherine...
