Hi Jules
12 years have passed. It’s surreal.
The world is tops turvy right now but our family is OK.
I’m pretty sure it’s because you are looking out for us all.
You would be so proud of your kids, big a small.
We miss you so much. How often would we need to hear your advice and give you a great big hug.
Love ❤ you Jules
Always will.

Well Jules, another Christmas has come and gone.
It is the 11th to be exact.
So much has gone on this year. Kim, Tony and the kids are working their homestead in BC. I know you are there looking out for them. I think they will keep you pretty busy.
Jen and Jason are establishing their new home. Please keep an eye on them as well.
Otherwise, despite the Covid pandemic going on for the last 2 years, we are all well.
We all think of you and miss you so much.
Love , Lou

Happy Father's Day Jules
You were and always will be the best Dad our children could ever have..
Your love, your compassion were a great inspiration and we are all better people because of it.
I am hoping you have a special place in mind for Kim, Tony and the kids to call home. I'm sure you are looking over them every step of the way.
Jen has also embarked in a new adventure in her life. She still looks to you for guidance. That is love

Merry Christmas Jules.
It’s definitely an odd one. As you well know 2020 has had its challenges.
Still hard to believe that we lost Lorraine last month. Say Hi when you see her.
On the bright side though, The kids are back in Canada. They are staying at Lynn’s farm for the time being.
I’m pretty sure you had something to do with the fact that we will all be spending Christmas Eve together. Thank you . It will be the last one for a very long time.
Kim, Tony, Hailey, Oliver, William, Jen, Jason, Justin and I will raise a glass to you tomorrow Dad.
Miss you every day

Hi Dad,
Happy Birthday!
It's hard to believe your 70! I'm sure you would still be in top top shape training with your boys! and of course enjoying a burger and a beer for your bday!

Like mom mentioned it's been a very odd year and the world is experiencing drastic change to our everyday. I know you are watching over us and really hope you can get Kim and family back to Canada safely in their next journey or chapter in there life , which I am excited for. I know that would ease our worries for all of us. It could be moms birthday gift

With Love,
Miss you Dad

Thank you for helping out with Kim, out there in Seattle. She starts work on Monday. Everything will work out.
The great news, is that Tony, Kim, Hailey, Oliver and William, are coming home for Christmas . Jen and I are thrilled. . Did you have something to do with that as well?

8 years have gone by. It's still seems unreal.
I went to Seattle last week to see Kim and the kids. You would be beaming, if you could see them at Taekwondo. Hailey takes it a little more seriously than the boys at the moment and is doing so well.
Think of you every day, miss you so much.

So much has happened in the last year. Kim, Tony and the kids have been in Seattle for a year and a half already. They are all doing well and are very happy.
Jennifer is happy as well. She has met a very nice young man, as you probably know already.
I'm ok too. Got my knee done in the fall and am recuperating well.
We all miss you so much. I am sending you pic of the kids. They are growing up so fast.

We all miss you so much, there are no words except we LOVE you.
Merry Christmas Lad.

Jules, Lou, Kim and Jen

A quiet man stands in the background. He watches and listens to a boisterous group of friends and family at a gathering. He ensures everyone has a drink and a place to sit....welcome to all.

Suddenly, a corny joke or off the wall comment is heard through all of the noise and chatter, followed by a laugh that cannot be forgotten nor duplicated.

There is a brief silence in the room, followed by an outburst of hysterical laughter by all. All eyes are upon this quiet man, blessed with a sense of humour which is second to none.

Jules, my brother, thank you for the many memories. Thank you for your humour, generosity, selflessness and unpretentious wisdom.

My heart is broken, I miss you, I will never forget you.

Hi Jules
66 this year! It has been 6 years on the 6th of the 6th month. I don't know what it all means, but there you have it.
I need to ask you to look over Kim, Tony and the Kids, as they embark on this new adventure. I know that we have always encouraged our kids to find their way in life and I am proud of that, but it is still difficult to let them go, especially when it takes them so far away. Knowing that you will be there with them, will make it a little easier.
We all miss you so much babe, we miss your laugh, your wisdom, your loving arms.
Talk to you soon.

A day I will never forget. It still feels so unreal. We say goodnight, and a few hours later, you are gone. I often look back on that night and wonder...if I had not gone to bed, would you still be here with us. I know what you would say, but I can't help but wonder. The girls and your beautiful grandkids will all be here this weekend. I pray that you will always look out for them all. You are truly missed Jules.
Love you always

Time got away from me. William turned 2 on Feb 21st. I wish you had met him as well, even though I'm sure you know and look over him. What a great little guy. Started talking. He sometimes gives Oliver a run for his money. You would be so proud of Kim and Tony. What wonderful parents they are. All the kids get so excited when tante Jen comes around. She is an incredible aunt.

Hi Jules
Another year has gone by. So much has happened, but in the end all that matters is that the kids, big and small are all doing well.
Poor Danny has lost his Jocelyne this December, just before Christmas. I hope that both of you give him and his children the courage and strength to carry on during this difficult time.
Please look over us this year again. We will always need you.
Love you, miss you

Cuttest Little Panda's

Hello Pops,
Happy Fathers Day! Hope you are enjoying a Labatt 50 and delicious Hamburger with melted cheese.
Played in a volleyball tournament today in the rain and cold but overcame the weather and won first place! Mom came to watch us and cheered in the rain like a trooper. I guess all those years of camping in the rain paid off as it doesn't effect our spirits to play outside on days like this! A few weeks ago, we went to see Hailey and Oliver's ballet recital as Panda's. It was the best recital yet! Hailey following all the right cues and leading all the kids and then Oliver the clown. We could not stop laughing at during and after the entire piece. Only the video can explain and then he ends up with a fat lip! Here is the cutest picture of our two little panda's for you to enjoy on Fathers Day. I know you were there in spirit and got a few good chuckles with us all. Miss you muchly and are forever in my heart. Love you Dad!!

This whole process with the house has been a nightmare from the beginning. Please help N deal with her issue in a proper manner.
You know that none of this would be happening if you were here. I promise to try to make better decisions in the future. Please just get me through this.
I miss you so much. It seems that I cannot accept that you are gone.

Love you lots babe

Hi Jules
Thank you. Everything is falling into place. I know you are still always there for us all. Thank God for that. We will always need your guidance.
It is Easter, a time for new beginnings, a time for resurection. I still dream that you will be back one day. In the meantime look at all your beautiful children. I wish you were here to see them grow.
Happy Easter my love.

OOSS Jules,
Another year has passed without your guidance and friendship. I hope you are looking down on us with approval. We have been doing our best to remember, pass on and train by your teachings and philosophy.

I can still feel your presence in every class I teach. It was such a proviledge to have had you as a friend, mentor and instructor.

As time moves on we gain even more respect for what you've done for the Ninja Fellowship. You have provided me and the Fellowship with enough to work on for several lifetimes.

I can't thank you enough for all you've done to make our lives richer and more fullfilling. Your kind and generous nature has provided us with a model to emulate and a goal to achieve.

You are missed beyond words my friend and are still in our daily thoughts.
Always,
Ray

December 24, 2012

Hi Jules
Well, it's Christmas Eve yet again. Another Christmas without you hon. It does not get any easier. I know you look over all the kids, so you know how much our grandchildren are growing. Hailey had a little Christmas pageant last week. Jen and I went down to see her in action and spent the day with Kim in her new home. Oliver is a mini you. The funniest little guy you will ever see. William is only 10 months old but he is strong as an ox. I guess he's also a lot like his grandpapa. We are truly blessed. I only wish you were here, in the physical world with us,to see them grow. I am grateful however to have your spirit with us all the time.
Hope you like your Christmas Wreath. It has become a very important part of this special holiday. Please give my Mom, my Dad, my brother Marcel as well as Pauline, Art and your Mom and Dad a big hug from all of us.
We miss you very much, we love you even more.

They all miss you very much. Things were never the same at work after you left.
It has been 2 years since that fateful night. I will never forget our last moments together and will be eternally grateful that they were shared with me.
Please keep an eye on the girls, they still need their dad.
Jen and I will see you tonight. Talk to you there.

Kim and Tony moved to St-Lazare in January, William Julien was born on Feb. 21st, Oliver turned 2 in April, Hailey is now 3 1/2 and is a wonderful big sister to her 2 brothers. I know that you are looking over us all but we miss you so much. You should be here to watch your grandchildren grow. How I wish we could go back 2 years and change the course of life. Wishing does not make it so. Rest well my love but please never let us go.

Hi Jules

Well, Christmas #2 has come and gone. You were greatly missed my love. We were blessed this year to have Art's family with us this Christmas season. You would be so proud to see all big kids and all grandchildren together. All of our lives both you and Art kept the families together by visiting each other every year. Your dream has come true, the kids have made it a point to continue this tradition in your memory. Be assured hon, that all the love, all the words of wisdom you have given our daughters throughout their lives, are now bearing fruit. Jen and Kim have grown up to be wonderful, thoughtful, generous and loving women, and that Jules, is because of you.
2012 is going to be another year full of changes and challenges. Please continue to look over us all, we need you, we love you, we miss you...

The boys passed their Shodan test. Four and a half hours of fun! I know you were there with us - I could feel you. Thank you for introducing Jitsu to me and carrying it forward to my two sons. The Sensei Jules legacy continues with this next generation. By the way, we named our dojo - Pathway Jiu Jitsu dojo in memory of you (with Louise's and Ray's blessing). I love you my friend.

My Dearest Jules –
Well a year has gone by and today is Father's Day. I think about you often but today of all days I think of you most. The man who took me in as one of his own and often introduced me as his other Daughter. How much I miss you, miss our chats and your wisdom and wish you were here to see how much life has changed. I think you would be proud of how things have come full circle. I often wonder why things turn out the way they do, and look to you to remember that life is worth living everyday to the fullest. Never take what you have had, have and will have for granted. Missing you so much and forever grateful that I had the pleasure of having you in my life.

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!

With much love to my other Father.
Big smiles, kisses and hugs to his Great Uncle Jules.
With loving memories to an Uncle who changed his life.

Love Erinn, Chace and Marcel.

Its been a year since your passing my friend and there are no words to express the loss we feel in your absense. Mike and I mention your name in every class we teach. Your legacy is secure as is the continued value of what you have taught us. We, in turn, continue to train, use the knowledge you imparted to us and pass these lessons on to future generations of students. You will always be in our hearts and minds.

What I miss most is that you were the person I called when I had good news to share or wanted advice or needed something fixed [I still have bags of your "extra parts" I wouldn't need, as you would say.] Thank you again for everything. Love.
Ray

I still sit and talk with you Sensei. I know you hear me. I see your smile and hear your voice still to this day. You are a huge part of my family and I thank God for putting you in my life. I love you and miss you dearly Jules.

Hi Jules
It has been 1 year since you left us. I was told that the 1st year was the most difficult for those of us left behind.
I'm afraid that may not be the case. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and miss you. As I begin my seocnd year without you here with me, to talk to, to laugh with, to share all of lifes blessings with, I fear the pain becomes more intense, more real. You would love to hear Hailey speak and watch Oliver crawl like lightning. I'm sure he will be walking soon. You are forever in our thoughts and in our prayers. Just remember that the kids and I still need you and love you with all our hearts.
Nous t'aimons gros comme le ciel mon amour.
Love you forever
Lou

A life well lived, never to be forgotten.

Dear Family and Friends,

During this time of sorrow, we learn how much our family and friends really mean to us.

Jennifer, Kim, Tony and I wish to thank you, for your kindness and sympathy at a time when it was so needed.
Your presence, be it in person or in thought, truly helped to lighten the burden and gave us courage and strength.
Your hugs and words of encouragement will always be remembered.

Jules was a good man, a kind man and an honest man.

“Great men are not found only in history books.
Great men walk among us every day, we have only to see them, to feel them, to allow them to guide us.”

Jules was such a man, let him inspire you in your daily life.
You will be amazed at the results.

God Bless you,

Louise Ladouceur
