Predeceased by his devoted and loving wife, Carmen Bouchard (nee Lepine). He was the father of Steve (predeceased), Remi (Chrissy) of Elliot Lake, Gaston (Lisa) of Hanmer, and Celine (Eric) of Chelmsford. He was a loving pepere to Miguel, Adele and Benson. He was the son of the late Arthur & Marie-Jeanne Bouchard, and loving son-in-law to the late Gerard and Estelle Lepine.

Dad was a long-standing member of the City of Elliot Lake. He worked in all the mine sites for Rio Algom. He took great pride in his career. He had a passion for hunting, fishing, camping, karaoke, and was a faithful supporter of the local Tim Hortons. He was married to the love of his life, Carmen, for 39 years. He will be loved and missed dearly, but there is some comfort in knowing they are reunited for eternity.
