Obituary for Robert "Bob" Laberge

Robert  "Bob"  Laberge
La famille regrette d’annoncer le décès de Robert (Bob) Laberge le 6 janvier 2014 à Kapuskasing. Âgé de 83 ans, il vécut dans la communauté depuis 1965. Père de Gérald (Nola), Linda (Jim), Pat (Jamie), Pauline (Guy), Donald et Denis (Jackie) et pépère ou grand-pépère à plusieurs petits-enfants (époux et épouses) et arrière-petits-enfants. De plus, Bob sera manqué par ses neveux et nièces ainsi que ses belles-soeurs, beaux-frères et beaucoup d'amis. Il laisse dans le deuil sa compagne chérie Vivianne Richard de Hearst ainsi que toute sa famille. Il laisse aussi un frère (Albert et Susan). Bob fut précédé dans la mort par sa femme Gertrude (1988) ainsi que 3 frères.
Bob a travaillé en tant que gérant de l'aéroport à Pagwa, Earlton et Kap. Il a adoré voyager avec sa famille à travers le Canada, les États-Unis, l'Europe. Son dernier grand voyage fut en Afrique avec sa fille. Chaque année, il faisait son pèlerinage avec Vivianne pour visiter les enfants, la famille et les amis éparpillés un peu partout. Grand amateur et pilote d'avion, dans les années 1970-80, avec des amis Bob a construit son avion dont il était très fier. Grand « bretteux », on le retrouvait souvent dans son garage en train de réparer ou confectionner ce dont il avait besoin.
La famille accueillera les parents et ami(e)s le vendredi 10 janvier 2014 de 14h à 16h et de 19h à 21h au salon funéraire Guénette à Kapuskasing. Les funérailles auront lieu le samedi 11 janvier 2014 à 14h à l’église Immaculée-Conception.
Des dons à l'hôpital Sensenbrenner de Kapuskasing, au manoir de Kapuskasing, à l'Association des amputés de guerre ou une charité de votre choix seront grandement appréciés.
