KEITH RENE LAVALLEE It is with deep regret that we announce the sudden passing of our son, brother, uncle, cousin and friend, Keith Rene Lavallee, on March 3, 2015, at the age of forty. Keith was born on October 21, 1974, in Arborg, MB. He spent his youth on the farm at Lillesve and attended school in Lundar. After graduation he attended the University of Winnipeg and University of Manitoba, graduating in 2002 with a degree in Pharmacy. He was predeceased by his father Louis and by his sister Myrna. He is survived by mother Evelyn and brothers Allan (Virginia), Brian, Warren (Karen) and Marcel as well as nephews Tyson (Nicole), Sophie and Jack, Rene (Tammy), Marc (Mandy), Laney and Nole, Curtis (Meaghan), Freya, Travis (Sam), Kyle (Ashley) and nieces Bailey and Callie, as well as many aunts, uncles and cousins. Keith was a devoted fan of the Bombers and Jets and held season tickets for both teams. He especially enjoyed the annual Labour Day Pilgrimage to Regina to face the enemy Roughriders. Keith touched many lives and the family would like to thank all the friends and family that have offered condolences and contributed food in this difficult time. A memorial service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Monday, March 9, 2015, at the Lundar Legion Hall with Pastor Bill Watson officiating. Service will conclude at the hall with a lunch to follow. All Keith's friends and cousins can consider themselves Honorary Pallbearers.

  • I am saddened to hear the news of Keith's passing. We had a lot of great times in high school! We would walk down the hall, I would be the announcer and he would be Macho Man Randy Savage (posing and flexing as we went)! Good times!! We will miss our "Macho Man"! - Posted by: Jason Hogue (Friend) on: Mar 16, 2015

  • Keith lived life to the fullest, never letting negativity get the best of him. Full of love for life, kindness, a good listener, and creative. Always a good time with him. He was a big wrestling fan and could remember the most funny and obscure details. With all the great memories of Keith the only regret is not having more. He was true a blessing for anyone that knew him. - Posted by: Hollywood (Friend-Neighbor) on: Mar 08, 2015

Keith, life is too short to say goodbye so I'll just say see you soon. When I get there I'm sure you'll have the coffee on for us. We can debate the finer points of hockey and Star Wars like always or re-enact SCTV skits. - Posted by: Jamie Merrick (Friend) on: Mar 07, 2015
