My deepest and sincerest condolences George's family. I only knew George a short while before he went to Tache. He was such a nice and entertaining man. He had a charming personality. - Posted by: Tracy ((homecare) @ Villa Aulneau ) on: Feb 25, 2015

Len, Ron and Larry, my condolences to you and your families. Your father was a kind and gentle man and I have many memories of family reunions in La Salle. I am happy that I had a chance to see him at Uncle Albert's birthday this past summer. I am in Florida and will be unable to attend the funeral. My thoughts and prayers are with you. - Posted by: Cecile Simard (Niece) on: Feb 23, 2015

I express my condolences to Len, Ron and Larry who have lost their father. I also extend sympathy to Laurette who enhanced my uncle's life during their marriage. It is the end of an era where the Cherlet family who immigrated from Belgium to Marhall, Minnesota and then Swan Lake, Manitoba has passed. When you grow up on a farm you learn many values that sustain you through life and I know he passed those on to his sons. I spent a lot of time with my uncle when first wife was ill and got to know him a little better. My he rest in peace. Maggie Nishimura - Posted by: Maggie Nishimura (niece) on: Feb 22, 2015

Our sympathies to Laurette, Leonard, Ron, Larry and families. We have fond memories of Uncle George and Tante Jeanne. I was able to visit with him a few times when visiting my Mom at Tache. We are currently on holidays in Phoenix and will not be able to attend the funeral and be there for all of you but will be thinking and praying for you on Saturday. He was well loved. - Posted by: Diane and Girardin (Niece) on: Feb 22, 2015
