In
Loving Memory
of
Henry “Harry” Dubreuil
92 years

at
Extendicare Falconbridge
Beloved husband of 64 years to Helen (nee Johnson). Loving and devoted father of Dennis (Barb), Kevin predeceased and Riki (Rachel). Predeceased by his parents Henry & Marion Dubreuil (nee Leclair). He will be sadly missed by family, friends and all who knew and loved him.
Harry was born in Orilla in 1925 and moved to Gogama where he resided until 1939 when his mother passed away. He then attended school at Scollard Hall in North Bay. When he was 17 he enlisted in the army where he served in WW2 in France, Germany and Holland. He was discharged in August of 1946 and started a job at INCO where he worked for 44 years in transportation. He met and married Helen Johnson in 1953 and had 3 sons. Over the years they enjoyed their trailer on Manitoulin Island. Harry loved golfing, the Blue Jays, going for coffee at Tim Hortons with his friends and talking with people. He truly was a good soul who loved people.
Death is something none of us can avoid, we can only hope that in our last days we have surrounded ourselves with people that will help us die with love and dignity. We truly wish to thank all the staff at Extendicare Falconbridge who gave Harry just that.
