• We will miss the many special visits we shared with Rene. He was a dear friend to my Mom Sharon, and my children and I consider him part of our family. Thank you for your wisdom, humor and care Rene. You shared many meaningful stories of your life's journey with us. We love you, and we will never forget you. Rest peacefully, and I pray you are reunited with all those that you cared for so much. My condolences to those who were also close to him.

• I remember my uncle Rene was a tall and good looking man, a man's man. He was always so kind and patient with us, Gilberte's kids. I have always kept a memory of visiting he and Aunt Clarisse once with a friend of mine, and having moose for lunch. Funny, sometimes, the things we remember. It was different. Good, but different! Uncle Rene was a nice man, and always welcoming. He and my mother were so alike in that way, as well as having an uncanny resemblance to each other. Rest well, Uncle Rene, and thank you that it makes me smile to think of you. - Posted by: Darla Jennings (Niece (daughter of Uncle Rene's sister, Gilberte)) on: Mar 12, 2013

• Mes souvenirs des etes de mon enfance ont ete marque par les visites de plusieurs semaines chez mon oncle Rene et Tante Clarisse a St. Boniface et chez am grand mere 'mamere' a Richer. Pendant les voyages en train, mes freres et soeurs gagaient a savoir si notre oncle Rene avait achete un nouveau campion pickup, la puissance du moteur, et j'en passe! Il etait tout simplement 'mon oncle Rene' que j'aimais bien. I am so proud that I am related to him and I am delighted that we were able to spend time together with all our cousins and my two brothers Preston and Marc, talking, laughing, shedding tears and ,many hugs and kisses. Rest in peace mon oncle Rene, Marlene Jennings ( on behalf of all the Jennings', Yconne, Preston, Shirley, Darla, Danielle, Marc and Brenda) - Posted by: Marlene Jennings (Niece) on: Mar 12, 2013

• La rencontre de René à Ottawa avec ses nièces et ses neveux et les cousins/cousines fut émouvante et mémorable! Il était fier et content car c'était son ultime souhait. Il a montré la grande étendue de sa mémoire et de ses connaissances lors de sa visite au Musée de la guerre. Quel soldat! Quel homme! Toutes nos sympathies aux proches de René. - Posted by: Hubert & Colette Mangin (Cousins) on: Mar 12, 2013
