GERARD JEAN JOSEPH GENDRON
March 21, 1954 – June 11, 2022
It is with the happiest of memories and greatest sadness that we share the peaceful passing of our amazing and beautiful Gerry Gendron, who died at home June 11, 2022, surrounded by his family. Beautiful husband, wonderful father, precious grandfather, beloved brother, uncle and friend.
He leaves behind those who will honour and pass on his values of loyalty, kindness, integrity and his quirky humour: spouse Jeannine, children, Joël (Carmelle), André (Marie Claude), Nathalie (Scott) and Robert: his amazing grandchildren that he loved so much, Jean Michel, Cédric, Rosalie, Thomas, Mélodie, Vincent, Annabelle and Emilie; his sister Dianne (Bert) Verzyl, brother Adélard (Anneli) Gendron, and lifelong friends, Robert Fontaine and François Gratton.
Gerry was predeceased by his parents, Agénor and Emma Gendron, siblings, Léo and Anne-Marie Gendron, sisters-in-law, Hélène and Léa Gendron, brother-in-law Michel Bohémier, mother and father-in-law Denis and Blanche Bohémier.
C'est avec les plus beaux souvenirs et avec beaucoup de tristesse que nous annonçons le départ de notre bien aimé et cher Gérard Jean Joseph Gendron. Il est parti paisiblement chez lui le 11 juin 2022, entouré de sa famille comme il l'avait souhaité.
Nous nous souviendrons toujours de Gérard comme étant sage, patient et agissant toujours avec intégrité. Son amour et son dévouement à sa famille et ses proches étaient présents dans sa façon de vivre à tous les jours. Sa présence était accompagnée d'un sourire et d'un air taquin. Gérard était passionné par la nature, le canotage et l'histoire. Il était toujours prêt à partir à l'aventure. Il était généreux avec ses connaissances dans ses passions et accueillait tous avec bras ouvert. Tu nous manqueras, Gérard.
Thank you to family and friends for your caring and support. Special thanks to CancerCare who have helped us navigate this seven-year journey and to Palliative Care Santé Sud for guidance and compassion in the final weeks.

To The Gendron Family, our deepest condolences to your family. It has been a joy having Gerry as our patient. His smile always brightened our days. - Posted by: Marion Dental Centre (Dentist) on: Jun 28, 2022

Gerry had a special sense of humour that made me laugh constantly during our shared time in “coal, sulphur and fertilizer period”. Working with you, Gerry Gajda, Brian Hunter and Chris Kent were the funniest time I spent within my Career at CN! Tes jeux de mots étaient tellement drôles et tes partages toujours intéressants , surtout ceux des moments partagés avec tes enfants: les excursions et randonnées en canôts. Il y avait tellement d’amour qui scintillait dans tes yeux lorsque tu parlais des exploits partagés avec ta famille! - Posted by: Claude Lipic (Co-worker) on: Jun 27, 2022

J’ai connu Gérard à l’école Précieux Sang depuis je crois, la première année. J’ai toujours reconnu Gerry étant comme un bon gars, souriant, doux et fort sympathique. Il vous manquera pour toujours mais il est là aussi pour vous, pour toujours. Il ne vous quittera jamais. Mes plus sincères condoléances à toute la famille et amis à Gérard. - Posted by: Odette Sabourin North (Friend) on: Jun 19, 2022

Jeannine and Family, Our condolences on Gerry’s passing. 30 some years of working with one of the best. He’s shown many pictures of his whitewater canoeing and then took me to Elma to get a taste of it. We also canoed from Headingley to The Forks, couple of things I won’t soon forget. Take care Jeannine, keep skiing eh. Barry and Joyce Meyer - Posted by: Barry Meyer (Co-worker) on: Jun 18, 2022
