Obituary

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear father, Jacques Catellier, at the age of 85. He reunited with mom, Irène Catellier (Labossière) on March 19, 2025.

Jacques was a man of unwavering work ethic and a deep love for his land and cattle. For over 50 years, he tilled his soil, harvested his crops and nurtured his cattle. He understood being a farmer was not always easy, but he faced the challenges with honor and determination. He knew the joys of harvest, the hardships of the seasons, and the importance of helping his fellow neighbour. His legacy is one of resilience, hard work and perseverance. He will be missed dearly.

He leaves to mourn his girls, Joanne (Alain Barnabé), Andrée (Alain Huberdeau), Claudelle (Dan Beaudette), Chantal (Allan Goertzen); grandchildren, Justin, Brianne, Daniel, Lysanne, Alex, Janique, Sylvie and Miguel; step-grandchildren, Heather Beaudette (Kyle Burky), Roger Beaudette; great-grandchildren, Nora and Theordore Burky.

He also leaves behind his siters, Irène Roy, Huguette (Laurent Robidoux) and Pauline Roy.

He was predeceased by his parents Lucien and Blanche Catellier; his siblings, Gabriel (Anita Catellier ), Lucienne (Emmanuel Godin ) and Gisèle Grand-Maison and brothers-in-law Dominique and Antonio Roy .

He also leaves to mourn Nicole (Marcel Courcelles), Marcien (Suzanne), Antonio (Lorraine), Rachelle (Gilbert Vigier), Thérèse, Angèle (Tom Kostelnyk), Norbert Alarie, Cécile (Étienne Hebert).

He was predeceased by Hortense Alarie, Diane Burke, Rita Couture, Lorraine Rondeau, Patrick, Marcel, Adrien, and Angeline Labossière.

The family would like to thank the staff at le Chalet Malouin and le Repos Jolys, Father Paul Nguyen Hung Tuan, the honorary pallbearers, René and Ronald “Jeff” Catellier and all those who assisted with the funeral service.
