We have missed seeing you since Covid. I still remember carpooling with Joann to Chorus and working out with Roland at the club. Where did the time go? Bon voyage Roland! We are thinking of you, Joann. Our love to you and your family, Deborah and John

I could not have worked for a kinder and stronger leader than the general! He was always steady, strong and compassionate. The world will miss General Lajoie because of his intelligent, confident and leadership by example.
