Melancon, Marcel

In Loving Memory of Marcel Melancon. Marcel passed away February 21, 2020. Today we celebrate the life of Marcel Melancon and his many accomplishments. Through dedication and hard work, Marcel gave 100% of himself. His commitment to his wife of 62 years was evident in every action and every word. He would address her with the following ‘Mon petit Coeur. Eldest of six children, he left his home in Quebec to start a new life in Ontario. He started at Inco in 1964 and retired in 1991 with 27 years of service He is survived by his wife Therese, his children Jocelyn (Brenda), Manon, Carole (Denis), Stephane, Marie-Therese (John) and Louise (Paul deceased) and his grandchildren and great grandchildren: Normand Jr. (Cheryl), Amanda (Eric), Chantal (Grant), Eric, Stephane, Robert, Kamyl, Sophie, Roseanne, John Jr, Marie-Louise, Micheal (Kathy), Elizabeth, Kristopher, Neomie, Chloe, Mackennah, Jayden, Olivia, Noah and Mila.
