Obituary for / Nécrologie pour Gilles Boulianne
C'est avec profonde tristesse et le cœur lourd que nous partageons le décès paisible de Gilles Boulianne, le mercredi 17 février à 65 ans. La famille s'est tenue à ses côtés et a réalisé ses dernières volontés dans le confort de sa maison. Les passions de Gilles comprenaient la menuiserie, le golf et la motocyclette, ainsi que les voyages en famille et entre amis. Il a été employé à la Spruce Falls pendant 42 ans avant sa retraite et pendant plus de 20 ans fut un membre dévoué du Service des pompiers volontaires de Kapuskasing, où il a passé d’innombrables heures avec sa deuxième famille.
Il laisse dans le deuil son épouse, Shirley; sa fille bien-aimée, Cindy Boulianne-Smith (Shaun), et ses petits-enfants adorés Ethan et Olivia d'Ottawa; son fils précieux, Brian (Lorraine Viau) de Cochrane et son aimable petit-fils Bruce; ses frères et sœurs: Lise Lacroix (Claude) de Hearst, Roger (Corinne) de Moonbeam et Carole Audet (Robert) de Sudbury. Il fut prédécédé par ses parents: Marie-Jeanne et Edmond.
La famille souhaite recevoir ses proches à une célébration de la vie; cependant, en raison des circonstances actuelles et malheureuses, on a choisi de reporter cela jusqu'à ce que tous ceux et celles qui tenaient Gilles près de leur cœur puissent y assister.

The family stood by his side and carried out his last wishes within the comfort of his home. Gilles’ passions included: woodworking, golfing and motorcycling, as well as travelling with family and friends.

He is survived by his wife, Shirley; his beloved daughter, Cindy Boulianne-Smith (Shaun), and adored grandchildren Ethan and Olivia of Ottawa; his dear son, Brian (Lorraine Viau) of Cochrane, and loving grandson Bruce; his siblings: Lise Lacroix (Claude) of Hearst, Roger (Corinne) of Moonbeam and Carole Audet (Robert) of Sudbury.
