To Renée, Tony & Kristen, Marie-Louise, and Nadine.

My most sincere condolences to all of you. Michel's sudden and unexpected passing must make it all the harder to bear for you. I hope you find comfort in knowing that your lives have been enriched by having shared his love for you all.

As Michel's favourite thing on earth was to be in the backyard with his family, I'm sure that you now have an angel in heaven to watch over you.

A lasting impression...
I work for Michel back in 1987. He had a small office which you had to get to, through Nesco Insurance. I believe it was on Gladstone. I had just graduated and I was so happy that Michel gave me my first opportunity to work as a bookkeeper, part-time. He was patient and a kind man to work for; and, for that reason I have never forgotten him.
Please accept my deepest sympathies and heartfelt prayers, God Bless!
