It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, devoted father, cherished grandfather, Albert “Bert” Dumontier. Bert passed away on March 19, 2024, at Riverview Health Centre, Winnipeg, Manitoba at the age of 82 years after a courageous battle with lung cancer.
Left to mourn his passing are his wife, Renée, of 58 years, daughters, Joelle (Jon) and Lynda (Peter), grandchildren, Ryann (Chelsey), Josée (Troy), Brooke-Lynn, Rudy (Abeygale), Sarah, great-grandchild Elena, siblings, Leah, Stella, Irene, Estelle (André), Raymond (Dolores), Claude (Denise) and Harvey (Karrie).
He was predeceased by his parents, Donat and Annette Dumontier, his siblings, Carmelle and Georgie and his brothers-in-law, René, Aimé and Bob.
Bert was born on November 10, 1941, in St. Jean Baptiste, MB. He was owner and operator of Bert’s Automatic Transmission in St. Jean. He coached the St. Jean Shifters hockey team and drove a school bus for many years.
Our family expresses heartfelt gratitude to everyone who walked alongside us and provided support to Bert during his battle with cancer over the past three months.
We would also like to thank the wonderful staff who kindly cared for Bert at Riverview Health Centre 3 East. Your compassion was very appreciated.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the charity of one’s choice in Bert’s memory.

Our family deeply appreciates the kind words and condolences shared after the passing of our beloved father. He was a proud man with an infectious laugh and a love for life. Whether spending time with his in-laws, siblings or friends, he brought joy and fun to every moment. He enjoyed the simple pleasures, like his favourite Club beer and ended every conversation with his signature phrase “For Sure.” Above all, he was a devoted family man who was deeply involved in the lives of his grandchildren’s Josee and Ryan. His love, wisdom and presence will always be cherished and remembered by all who knew him. Miss you always, Dad! - Posted by: Joelle Dumontier (Daughter) on: Nov 26, 2024

I had the pleasure of working with Bert. He would come to work early to chat with coworkers and use his sense of humour. I will never forget his famous trademark ‘for sure’. I know he will be greatly missed by many, my deepest condolences to his family. - Posted by: Sandra (School Bus Driver) on: Apr 27, 2024

Mon Oncle Bert was always a channel to laughter and happiness. Not a family event went by without the Dumontier siblings tapping into the beer or wine, and as if choreographed, engaging in their "SYNCHRONIZED LAUGHTER". You could not help but get dragged into it. Bert always welcomed you with open arms, and was quick to share a story. You will be missed Mon Oncle. "For Sure"....you will be missed. - Posted by: Darcel Lecocq (Nephew) on: Apr 12, 2024
