Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryMARTIAL LAVERGNE C'est avec le coeur lourd que nous annonçons le décès de Martial Lavergne, le vendredi 1er février 2013, à l'âge de 86 ans. Il a passé ses derniers jours entouré de sa famille. Il laisse dans le deuil ses enfants Réal (Val), Norman (Alana), Julien (Angel), Danielle (Ihor Holowczynsky) et Ginette (Gilles Paillé); ainsi que 18 petits-enfants et 6 arrière-petits-enfants. Egalement dans le deuil sont ses soeurs Gilberte, Gisèle et Diane, et son frère Germain. Martial was born in St-Pierre-Jolys on December 6, 1926, the fifth of seven children and two stepchildren. On June 18, 1949, he married the love of his life, Aline Hébert. Martial avait un don pour la construction. Il travailla pour son père, ensuite pour Holmgren Son et le ministère des Travaux publics du gouvernement fédéral. Il fonda finalement, avec ses frères Gérald et Bernard, l'entreprise Triple L Construction Ltd., où il oeuvra jusqu'à sa retraite en 1988. An excellent role model for his children by his strong work ethic and sense of responsibility, Martial, even more importantly, instilled in them a joie de vivre, the importance of family, and an exemplary selflessness. His presence and personality were larger than life, and his unfailing sense of humour and wit brought happiness and lightness to every situation. Martial enjoyed indulging in his own pastimes as well. Throughout the years, he enjoyed playing baseball, golfing, hunting, and fishing. He and Aline were avid travellers, visiting exotic places such as Peru, Africa, Hawaii, as well as spending many a winter in Mesa, Arizona. They also enjoyed countless days at their cottage in Belair, which was one of the many places they shared with family and friends. Martial and Aline were renowned for their generous hospitality and carefree love of joyful get-togethers. La famille remercie sincèrement le personnel du Centre Taché, Sr Louise (Hélène Hébert) sgm et Denis et Rita Hébert pour leurs soins attentionnés et leur soutien indispensable accordés au cours des dernières années. The funeral service will be held on Wednesday, February 13, 2013 at 11:00 a.m. at l'église St-Eugène, 1007 St. Mary's Rd., with Father Roland Lanoie officiating. Interment of ashes will follow at the St-Boniface Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimer Society of Manitoba, 10 - 120 Donald Street, Winnipeg, MB R3C 4G2. 204-586-8044

I have very fond memories of Oncle Martial. He will always stand out in my mind and heart as a happy and kind uncle. It has been a long time since I have seen him but will always remember his love of children when we were growing up and how we all loved being around him and Tanta Aline. My condolences to all he leaves behind. Annette - Posted by: Annette McCoubrey (Niece, Fille de Marcel(frere d'Aline) etTherese Hebert) on: Feb 10, 2013

Our sincere condolences to the entire family. Uncle Martial was a great man, full of life and quite a comedian, that's what I liked the most about him. I still tell his jokes to people. Both uncle Martial and Aunty Aline enjoyed being with Mom and Dad. They travelled together at times, had great parities and splendid family gatherings by the pool. He will be missed by all who knew him. He is now with his wife whom he loved with all his heart. There is a cure for Alzheimer uncle, it's called Heaven. RIP.
