He enjoyed visiting family and friends during Sunday drives with his loving wife of 49 years L\u00e9a who was always by his side, together till the end. His son Bruce was his pride and joy without forgetting his love for Bernadette, his son\u2019s common-law wife and two grand-children, Craig and Loressa.<\/p>\n
