Lynn, I am so sorry for your loss. It is so difficult to lose a parent. Thinking of you and your family. Take care.

Yvon was a valued member of our Parish and Knights of Columbus Council. He was always there with a patient ear, a kind heart and a helping hand. He will be sadly missed. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Barbara and the family. May God grant him eternal rest and may He hold him always in the palm of His hand.
Shirley and Jim McSavaney
We will treasure the memories of our many coffee gatherings that we shared. Rest peacefully Yvon.
Our condolences to Barbara and family. We remember Yvon’s support to the Knights of Columbus and who will ever forget his unique sense of humour. He will be sorely missed.
May God welcome Yvon into His kingdom.
