It saddens us to announce the passing of Simon Pierre LeFort on May 2, 2022 at Sacred Heart Community Health Centre, Cheticamp at the age of 86. He was born in Cheticamp on April 10, 1936 son of the late Geoffrey and the late Flavie (Aucoin) LeFort. Simon Pierre was involved in many community organizations.
