Charlie Joe was a loving husband and life partner to the love of his life of 60 years, Lucie Ad\u00e8le.\u00a0 He was a wonderful, loving and patient Dad to his children, and a wonderful P\u00e9p\u00e9re to his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.\u00a0 Charlie Joe lived life for his family who were his pride and joy and to whom he gave the best of himself.<\/p>\n
Charlie Joe always worked hard at everything he did and always gave his 110%.\u00a0 He was not the kind of guy who would ever seek the limelight.\u00a0 To those who knew him they would say he was kind and generous.\u00a0 He\u2019d always do his best to look out for family, friends, neighbors or co-workers in need without ever expecting anything in return.<\/p>\n
Charlie Joe was always a fun-loving guy.\u00a0 He was an undefeated champion pool player for many, many years \u2013 and that he would brag about. He enjoyed hunting, playing cards with friends, listening to music and fiddle tunes, dancing and going for a drive and, watching the Montreal Canadiens play \u2013 even though they lost most of the time, they were still his favorite team.<\/p>\n
Charlie Joe grew up in Plateau in a family of 13 children. He is survived by his brother, Louis Pat (Am\u00e9lia) Harris; and his sisters, Lina Poirier, Marie Ad\u00e8le Evers, and Geraldine Harris. He is also survived by brothers in-law, Pierre Joseph (Carol) Deveau, Eddy Joe (Jeannette) Deveau, Andr\u00e9 (late Lorraine) Deveau and Joseph Tommy (late Zabeth) Camus; sisters in-law, Sophie (Deveau) Taylor and Casilda (Deveau) Larade; as well as by many nieces and nephews.<\/p>\n
He was pre-deceased by their son, Tony Harris; his brothers, Henri and Thomas (Tommy); and sisters, Marguerite, Nannette, Julitte, Sophie, Elizabeth (Zabeth) and Doris.<\/p>\n
Many will remember Charlie Joe in different ways throughout his 84 years.\u00a0 But we, his family, will remember him as a gentle, tender, quiet soul who loved us all unconditionally, with all of who he was, and who gave us all the best of himself.\u00a0 He will be missed, but he will be remembered, always.<\/p>\n
