ETHIER, Hervé - Peacefully passed away at his residence, surrounded by his loving family, Wednesday, June 24, 2009 at the age of 73 years, after a courageous battle with cancer. Son of the late Donat and of the late Lucienne Ethier (née Bazinet). Beloved husband of 52 years of Lorraine Ethier (née Ducharme) of Sudbury. Loving father of Daniel Ethier (Anne) of Montreal, Denise Rancourt (Marc) and André Ethier (Paulette) both of Sudbury. Lovingly remembered by his grandchildren Mélanie (Yanik), Richard (Jennifer), Sylvie (Booby), Mathieu, Josée (Chad), Éric and by his great-granddaughters Jenelle and Amber. Dear brother of Noëlla Laforest (late Albert) of St-Charles, Marguerite Laforest (late Harry) of McFarlane Lake, Roland Ethier (Jacqueline) of Alban, Rachel Roy (late Jean-Paul) of Hanmer, Claudette Brisebois of Dowling, Gérald Ethier and Armand Ethier (late Muriel) both of Sudbury, Suzanne Carrière (Gerry) of Bracebridge.

For those who had the good fortune of having him in their life, he will be remembered as a loving, caring and generous man. He was happiest when surrounded by his family, especially when at his summer cottage where he spent as much time as possible. Even through his many hardships, he always found time to help others. With such a joy for life, he was always whistling and singing and found the silver lining in every cloud. Will be sadly missed by family, friends and neighbors. The family will receive relatives and friends at the CO-OPERATIVE FUNERAL HOME, 222 Lasalle Blvd. E. (at Notre-Dame), Sudbury, Sunday from 2-5 and 7-9:30 p.m. Mass of Christian burial will be celebrated Monday, June 29, 2009 at 11:00 a.m. in St- Dominique Church, Sudbury.
