C’est avec une profonde tristesse que je reçois les nouvelles de Cyril. Mais au même temps, c’est avec joie que je célèbre sa vie. Il était toujours un homme avec énorme talent et savoir-faire. C’était un honneur de vivre avec lui comme voisin. Je vous offre mes condoléances dans ce temps difficile.

Just heard about Cyril's passing on, and instead of grief, I feel happy because he has lived a full life and had the privilege of growing old with family. I remember Cyril and my Dad concocting weird projects together, while snickering and hoping that the wives would not find out what was goin' on! A gentle, but firm Bus Driver whose stare would destroy you when you misbehaved on his bus(then you sat down and shut up!) Late night raids on his garden would yield a couple of the juiciest and sweetest cucumbers on the planet. Even our raids would command respect for this man as the realization set in that he was a Master Gardener. In conversation with Cyril, it seemed that every second word was "here". If I had a nickel for every time I heard that word commin' out of his mouth, I would be rich! He'd brag about his kids, here! Tell me what every one of them was up to, here! You could tell he was really proud of them, here! Pauline is doing this, here. Pauline is doing that, here. Indeed, a family man who has truly lived life to the fullest! It is my fervent hope that he and my dad are still getting into mischief and giving God a hard time to the point that God swears at the both of them! Rest in Peace Cyril! And thanks for fixin' my furnace!

Our sincere condolences to the family on Cyril's passing. We remember Cyril with great fondness and laughter, and know he will be missed by all.

Dear Aunt Pauline & Cousins...it is in deepest sympathy that we send our condolences. It seems there's very little anyone can say or do to ease the loss of Uncle Cyril's passing. May you find comfort in the sorrow that you bear, knowing there are many of us that understand and care. Through your faith, you will find the strength to understand that Uncle Cyril is now HOME with his parents and siblings living without earthly pain and suffering! God Bless each of you with good memories of days gone by...hold them in your hearts!! Much love from Aunt Leona's girls XO

Pauline,Louise, Robert and family I wouild like to extend my most sincere sympathy on the passing of a well respected community man My memories of him are when he drove me to school and I remember one day before Christmas he handed me a present and said this was from him and Pauline and when I un wrapped it and it was a soldier for the Christmas tree I can say that was the best gift I could have got and every year I put it up it reminds me of Cyril and Pauline and Cyril will always be remembered for his kindness to me

Dear Pauline: Please accept my sympathy on the passing of your husband. When Bev was alive we were kept up to date on the Gallant family. Everyone spoke highly & with affection of your husband. Please pass on my condolences to family. *Buzzy

Hope that knowing he has touched so many lives and put smiles on us as we went to school. He was liked by many and will be truly missed. my condolences goes out to the whole family. God has another angel.

Our deepest condolences on Cyril's passing. May you all remember the good times and know that he is now at peace.

Pauline please accept our most sincere condolences and sympathies on hearing of Cyril's passing. He was such a joy on our many trips with la RANE. His many stories and jokes made these trips memorable. He will never be forgotten. At this most difficult time, please know that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Celeste, I'm so sorry to hear of your dear Dad's passing. I hope happy memories will help you through this difficult time. He lived in a different time from us--I loved that he accepted the 'catch of the day' for payment in lieu of cash. Sounds like a great man!

Pauline, our sincere condolences to you and your family. We never got to know Cyril, but his obituary drew a picture of a fine man loved by everyone.

Pauline & family: Sorry to hear of Cyril's passing. He was a real kind man, when I ran for Councillor four years ago he gave me some grapes out of his greenhouse. He is now reunited with his God who loved him dearly. There will be no more pain for him only joy everlasting. From his place in heaven, he will watch over all of you and keep you safe. I will keep you in my prayers and may God Bless all of You. R.I.P. Cyril.

Chère Pauline et la Famille Boudreau Nos plus sincères condoléances et l'assurance de nos prières en ce temps de deuil. Toutes les Soeurs se souviennent de Cyril et garde un très bon souvenir de lui et de la famille. Que Dieu lui donne le repos bien mérité. And God Bless you all.

Condolences to the family, especially Pauline. Whenever I think of Uncle Cyril, I smile because he made me laugh. Perhaps his greatest gift to all. Prayers and good thoughts to all.

Aunt Pauline and family, Jamie and I and the boys were very sorry to hear of your loss.
