It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Robert Laliberté, on April 10, 2025, in Ottawa, at the age of 79.

Born in Hawkesbury, Ontario, Robert was a man deeply devoted to his family and friends. A lifelong teacher, he touched the lives of many young people with his kindness, humour, and love of mathematics. An avid athlete, traveller, joker and storyteller, Robert had a gift for making people laugh and bringing them together. His empathy and warmth made him a ray of sunshine in the lives of those around him.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Jocelyne Laliberté (née Latrémouille), his children Geneviève (Michael Duke) and Philippe (Nicole Wood), as well as his cherished grandchildren Sophie, Jason, Brianne, and Noah. He is also survived by his brothers Raymond and Patrick, several brothers- and sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews, and many dear friends. He was predeceased by his parents, Irene and Lionel Laliberté; his nephews Charles Laliberté and Luc Latrémouille; and his parents-in-law Rita and Irenée Latrémouille, along with his brother-in-law André Latrémouille.

The family sincerely thanks everyone who supported Robert over the past months, and especially during his final days. He will remain forever in our hearts, with his mischievous smile and the stories that lit up the eyes of everyone around him.

Friends, family, colleagues, students and all who wish to honour him are invited to attend a Celebration of Life on May 30 at 1:00 p.m. at Beechwood Cemetery, where we will gather to honour and remember Robert together.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Ottawa Hospital Foundation (Cancer Research), in gratitude for the exceptional care and support Robert received.

We would like to extend our deepest condolences to Robert’s family and all whom he touched. We will never know all the people he has touched on his journey through life but we know he will be missed. May you smile more than you cry when you think of him. Because you know he is smiling in our Lord’s house as he welcomes him home! Love David and Sharon James

Quel privilège d’avoir côtoyé un être qui se veut une démonstration éloquente de bienveillance. Un amoureux vaillant, un père attentionné, un pédagogue inspirant et surtout l’ami qui va me manquer au plus profond de mon être. Toutes mes condoléances à Jocelyne, à Geneviève, Philippe et les petits enfants. Comme je suis triste pour nous tous… l’univers sera un peu plus terne sans lui, mais le ciel aura une nouvelle étoile…

Chère Jocelyne, Je veux te transmettre mes sincères condoléances pour la perte de ton cher époux Robert. Gérald a toujours apprécié travailler avec lui. Mon cher Gérald a également quitté cette vie ce vendredi dernier, le 9 mai donc les deux pourront avoir de longues discussions ensemble, j'en suis certaine. Prends soin et je vous garde dans mes prières.

Robert a été un collègue au sourire généreux, intéressé aux élèves qui lui étaient confiés, fin pédagogue pour allumer en eux la soif d’apprendre. À toutes celles et ceux qui pleurent son départ, je vous souhaite de retrouver au-delà de la peine et de la tristesse sa présence tout autre dans vos vies
