Ronald B. Séguin

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our father, Ronald Séguin.

For Ronald, nothing was too challenging. He carved out a path for himself that required him to return to school on several occasions. He worked as a delivery driver, a mechanic, and a car salesman. After many years of sacrifice, tenacity, and study, he fulfilled his dream and became a teacher of automotive mechanics and carpentry. Traveling was essential to him; it was a way to continue learning, relax, and meet new people. A self-taught musician, he played many instruments, including the guitar, violin, harmonica, and accordion. A sociable man with a gift for conversation, he would strike up a conversation with anyone, anytime. A great prankster, he never missed an opportunity to play tricks. Above all, he had a deep love for his family.

Married for 50 years to the late Colette Fournier and son of the late Lucien Séguin and the late Simone Bertrand, he is survived by his children, Daniel, Sylvie (Kevin Brant), and Anne (Eric Marcotte); and his grandchildren: Zachary, Bailey, Jacob, Max, Kieran, Angelika, and Tara. He is also survived by his brother Ernest (the late Denise Lacroix), his sister Claudette (the late Gérald Meloche), and his brother Réjean (Marjolaine Gravelle), as well as numerous nephews, nieces, and friends.

He was predeceased by his son Robert (Julie Connolly) and his sister Nicole (the late André Laviolette).
