RONALD JAMES LAPOINTE September 26, 1954 - May 7, 2017 Peacefully, with his family by his side and after a courageous battle with cancer, Ronald James Lapointe, beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend passed away. He will be lovingly remembered by his wife, Marion (née Irving), his daughters, Lisa (Doug Lehmann), Karrie (Vic Rehill) and Shawna. His grandchildren, Mychaela, Matthew, Anthony, Taytam, Erika, Easten, Georgia, Rowan, Scheyden and soon to be expected grandson Tristan, will all miss their papa dearly. Also grieving his loss are his siblings Elaine Chatel, Gloria Kucharsky, Pat (Ed Wilchek), Maurice (Pauline), Larry, Jo-Anne (Geoff Gard), and his special cousin Louis Ouellette (Norma). He will also be missed by his mother-in-law Carrie Irving, sisters-in-law Carol Fulford (Wayne) and Pat Zelezen (Alvis), and many nieces, nephews, relatives and friends. He was predeceased by his parents Richard and Georgina (Howson), his brothers-in-law Gerald Chatel and Martin Kucharsky, and his niece Susan Coleman. Ron was born and raised in Haywood, Manitoba and moved to Winnipeg. He was currently Manager of the Canadian Tire in Southdale where he earned the respect and trust of his colleagues. When Ron wasn't spending his time with his second family at Canadian Tire, he liked to golf, watch the Blue Bombers and listen to Merle Haggard. Most of all he loved to spend time with his family. Thank you to the compassionate and caring staff at CancerCare Manitoba and to a good friend Ernie Trudel for all their support. A celebration of Ron's life will be held at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, May 13, 2017 at Soul Sanctuary, 2050 Chevrier Blvd. If so desired, memorial donations may be made to CancerCare Manitoba.

Marion and family, Our hearts are breaking as are yours. Ron will be forever missed. He was a man larger than life. What a guy! He was our leader and friend and not one day will pass without thinking of him. He was respected and loved as he loved and respected all of his family. He was so proud of his family and especially his "Gran Kids" whom he spoke so highly of I hope you know how delighted he was by all of you. He will be truly missed. - Posted by: Elaine Daoust (Friend and co worker) on: May 12, 2017
