ROGER ARNOULD After a long and courageous battle with cancer, peacefully at the age of 87, Roger passed away with his devoted wife Olga by his side. He died the way he lived, with a strong heart until the end. He will be lovingly remembered by the love of his life of 61 years, Olga (nee Polischuk); children, Paul (Debby), Rose, Lorraine (Gary Martens), Jackie (Wade Hornsby); grandchildren, Karen (Justin), Philip (Caitlyn), Kevin, Derek, Harley, Dustin, Jordan, Daniel; great-grandchildren, Orion and Ivy. Roger is also survived by his sister Angele Trudeau; brother Raymond (Frances); also many nieces, nephews and close family friends. He was born in Lorette and settled in Ile des Chenes where he built his home and raised his family. He farmed until the age of 72 and retired from Trans Canada Pipelines after 36 years. His passions included his family, hunting, gardening, travel, and playing crib. His generosity and good nature was well known amongst his family and many friends. The family extends a special thanks to all the staff at St. Boniface Palliative Care, St. Vital Palliative Home Care staff and all the doctors and support staff who touched Roger's life. Memorial service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, March 19, 2019 at Glen Lawn Funeral Home with reception to follow.

As friends of Rose we were so sorry to hear the sad news of her and her family’s loss. Although we didn’t know him personally, we know how special a bond Rose had with her father and what a wonderful, caring and loving daughter she has always been to him. You were blessed to have such an awesome Dad and we hope the many special memories he has left you will bring you comfort in the days ahead. Our sincere condolences to you all. - Posted by: Kathy and Gerry (Friends of Rose) on: Mar 30, 2019

I have known Rose & her sons for many years as Rose & I worked together at Air Canada. My deepest condolences go out to Rose & family on the loss of her father. Family is so very important to Rose, & if you’re lucky enough to be her friend, you become family to her. Thinking of all of you at this very difficult time, love to all...

Deepest condolences to Ollie and all the family, Roger was the first person I met when we moved to Ile Des Chenes in 1974. We became neighbours for over 30 years, Roger was always there with a helping hand when needed, Roger was fun to be with and on many occasions we spent time having refreshments, sometimes too many and got ourselves in trouble with the wives, will always remember his kindness and being a good neighbour..

I am a friend of Rose's. My husband and I want to extend our deepest condolences to the family. We had the honor of meeting the family on a couple of occasions and spending time in the company of these amazing people. Anyone that knows Rose knows how much her parents mean to her and I cannot even begin to imagine the magnitude of this loss. We are deeply saddened for the family's loss and want you all to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Hi: I really did not know Roger well, but had occasion to see him at bingo (I sat just behind Olga and Roger). I saw him playing cards and noticed that he was competitive (he seemed to enjoy it when he won) and also noticed his sense of humor (he took quite a lot of teasing from those he played with). I miss seeing them at bingo and hope that Olga can return from time to time. - Posted by: sandra anderson (friend) on: Mar 16, 2019
