DUGUAY, Lionel

DUGUAY, Lionel (Poune) - (1931-2011) - The family announces with sorrow his death in Sturgeon Falls, Thursday, April 28th, 2011, at the age of 79 years. Son of the late Jean-Baptiste Duguay and the late Elizabeth (née Baronette) Duguay. Loving husband of Yolande (née Thibert) Duguay of Sturgeon Falls. Dear father of Daniel (Francine) of Sturgeon Falls, Joanne Tessier (Richard) of St Charles, Yvon (Laurette) of Sturgeon Falls and Suzanne (Dennis) of Sturgeon Falls. Sadly missed and lovingly remembered by his grandchildren Danica, Danielle, Dafeny, Annie, Devin, Daniel Jr., Josée, Melissa and by his great grandchildren Jazmine, Joshua, Alyssa and Kimberly. Also survived by his brothers and sisters Murielle Gagné (late Roger) of Hamilton, Yvonne Paquette (Roger) of Sturgeon Falls, Jeannine Racine (late Aimé) of Sturgeon Falls, Armand (Claudette) of Azilda and Rollande Malette (Léo) of Cache Bay. Predeceased by his brothers and sisters Conrad, Reine, Laurette, Gérard and Laurent. Lionel retired from Falconbridge Smelter in 1986. He was a member of the Knights of Columbus in Sturgeon Falls. He was an avid hunter and angler. He also had a flare for baking and cooking, with a patience of gold for details, which he was often teased by his family and friends. He would bring to everyone's eyes, warm tears or a good laugh with his songs. He will be sadly missed and always remembered for his devotion and kindness to his family. The family wishes to express a special thank you to the staff and nurses at the West Nipissing General Hospital and also to the staff on 3rd floor and the palliative care at Au Château who gave Lionel such devoted care. The family will receive friends for a funeral mass to be held Wednesday, May 4, 2011 at 11:00 in Ste Thérèse d'Avila Church, Cache Bay. Donations to Au Château (Palliative Care) or the West Nipissing General Hospital Foundation (Long Term Care) would be appreciated (cheques only).
