SIRSLY,
Claude
Eugene
It is with deep sadness that Claude's family announces his sudden
death on Thursday, May 8, 2008 as a result of complications from
surgery. Claude was 59 years of age, and was predeceased by his
parents, Joseph and Antoinette
(FICHERA.) He leaves, in sorrow
and bewilderment, his wife
Christena
(KEON,) his brother and
sister-in-law, Tony and Carol-Ann
(TETRAULT,) and his nieces,
Francesca and Dominique. Claude was always close to his wife's
family - his sister-in-law, Mary
KEON and her partner Lewis
McCALL
his brothers-in-law, Jim
KEON and his wife
Kathleen
(BAKTIS)
and David KEON and his wife
Jane
(BLOOMER.) He enjoyed following
the progress of his nieces and nephews by marriage: Jody and
Holly KEON;
David
KEON Jr., his wife
Linda and their children
Kaitlyn and D.J.; Anne Marie and Jim
NEMETT and their children,
Laura and Liam; Kathleen and Joe
ZOLDOS, and their son Michael
Tim and Sheila
KEON and their sons, Patrick and Benjamen. Claude
was passionate about everything he undertook, but particularly
focused his attention on the three 'C's': cooking - he was an
exceptional cook and enjoyed entertaining Friends and family
construction - he had a talent for creating solutions to complicated
problems in the apartment and at the cottage in Magog; and Christena
- he advised her on her career and life choices throughout their
Friendship of 39 years and their marriage of 32 years. One day,
we will be able to make sense of losing this insightful, kind
and considerate husband and friend. We will keep the faith until
that day. There will be visitation at the Centre Funeraire Cote-desNeiges,
4525 chemin de la Cote-des-Neiges, 1-888-3426565 on Wednesday,
May 14, 2008 from 17: 00 to 21:00. The funeral will take place
on Thursday, May 15, 2008 at 10: 30 at St. Patrick's Basilica,
460 Boulevard Rene-Levesque West. Should you wish, donations
in Claude's memory may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation
of Canada.
