“Rene and Leona will always hold a very special place in my heart. They treated me like family in all the summers I spent visiting with them at their home on Woodbridge when Michelle was there. I grew to love them very much over the years and deeply cherish all the amazing childhood memories I shared with them. Rene was a big teddybear who gave big bear hugs with that kind twinkle in his eye. May you rest in peace with Leona and Brian Please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for your loss.”

“Rene was a presence and he was a great one. We have many fond memories of Rene over the years both in New Brunswick and in Ontario. There were many picnics, visits and birthday parties, and as kids it was all good fun. Anyone there would remember Rene. I can still remember him calling us for our hamburgers. He was always fun to be with. Nice summer days, bikes, good times and Rene was there with Leona and the boys. Rest In Peace Rene. We’ll miss you a lot. Roger and the Caissie Family”
