In Loving Memory of Harold Adolphe “V.A” Olivier 85 years who passed away at Health Sciences North Sunday, April 29th, 2018 Beloved husband of 63 years to Rita Olivier (nee Robinson). Born in Hornepayne on December 6th, 1932 (home from hospital by dog sled). Son of Adolphe “Milly” & Jennie Olivier (nee Sorenson) both predeceased. Harold grew up and lived in Coniston for the better part of his life. Beloved and dedicated father of Dr. David Olivier (Elizabeth) and Robert Olivier (Rasa). Brother of Jim (Pauline) (Helen predeceased), Barry (Jeanette), Charlie (Linda) and predeceased by sister Cheryl Gellately (Ed). Survived by many nieces and nephews. Harold worked at Falconbridge Nickel Mine for 36 years and hoped to equal the number of retirement days to his work days, but he didn’t quite make it. Harold was always into sports; fishing and hunting in his earlier years, then came baseball, hockey and curling and especially golf. He was a member for many years at Lively Golf, Twin Stacks and while wintering in Lakeland, Florida a member of Cleveland Heights Golf Club. He enjoyed many outings with “The Boys” both his own and golf buddies. He was a Mine Rescue participant while employed at Falconbridge. One of his proud accomplishments was getting his private pilot’s license. Many thanks to the care shown to Harold and his family at Health Sciences North – 4th Floor North Tower. As per Harold’s wishes, cremation has taken place. A memorial mass will be held on Friday, May 4th, 2018 at 11:00 am at St. John the Evangelist Church (255 Church Street, Garson). A private interment will take place at St. John’s Cemetery in Garson. Donations to the Lung Association and Heart & Stroke Foundation would be appreciated by the family. Arrangements entrusted to Sudbury Park Lawn Cremation Service.
