JEAN-MARIE (JOHN) BERTHELETTE
John Berthelette passed away on April 24, 2022 in his home, surrounded by the people he loved, after a hard fought battle with cancer.
John was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba on August 22, 1949 to the late Albert Berthelette and Madeleine Berthelette (nee Brodeur) and was the youngest of three children. He grew up in St. Adolphe, Manitoba.
John loved his family and his numerous animals over the years. He was a long haul trucker across Canada and the US and he was a skilled renovator/carpenter. He also has a talent in sports including being a champion archer, great tennis player, hockey player and golfer. He used to race his Chevy Beaumont on the ¼ mile track in Ste. Anne, Manitoba. He was a huge Jets and Packers fan!
He is survived by his wife of 52 years, Shirley Berthelette (nee Reimer); daughter Jennifer Berthelette; his sister Lorraine Ross (William); sister-in-law Sharon Trudel (Roger); pups, Bruno and Buster; as well as many cousins, nieces, nephews and friends.

I am shocked to hear that you passed away. I will always remember you as an athlete. It was nice to keep in touch over the years. Wish we could have done it more often. May you rest in peace and my sympathy to the family. - Posted by: Gilles Hebert (Friend and classmate.) on: May 02, 2022
