Age 67, Petit Etang, passed away on Thursday, May 26, 2022 at Sacred Heart Community Health Centre, Cheticamp, after a yearlong battle with cancer. He was the son of the late Wilfred and the late Marie Emma (Poirier) Aucoin.<\/p>\n
Roger came home from out west in 1979, and worked at different jobs, mostly carpentry. His last job was with Camille Chiasson Construction, where he worked for the last 20+ years.
