It is with profound sadness that the families of Léo Paul Savaria and Colette Parent-Savaria announce the passing of their beloved father, husband, grandfather and great-grandfather on May 18th, 2024 at Sturgeon Community Hospital, St Albert, AB.
He is survived by his wife Colette and predeceased by his wife Marcelle in 2006. He will be dearly missed by his children, Robert (Allison), Yves (Maria), Micheline (Don), Françoise (Tony), André (Lucille); grandchildren, Kyle, Katherine (Chad), Paul (Hannah), Elizabeth (Jeff), Geneviève (Ben), Phillip (Natali), Natalie (Jared) Stéphane (Karoline); and great-grandchildren, Madeleine, Robyn, Kale, Jasper, Audrey and Leander. Also close in thought are his step- children, Suzanne (Len), Lorraine (James) and Pierre; grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
He was predeceased by his wife, Marcelle in 2006; his step-son, Marc; and his son-in-law, Don.
Léo Paul lived his life defined by faith, family and service to others as demonstrated by the great number of charities he supported, the religious projects he initiated, his active participation in the St. Joachim church community, and the love for his family.
He was a loving husband, devoted father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He also enjoyed a long and fulfilling professional career as a cost estimator in both private and public sectors.
The Savaria family is especially indebted to Colette who has cared for and supported Léo Paul throughout his golden years, both in sickness and in health and for this we are eternally grateful.
The families would like to sincerely thank the Sturgeon Community Hospital Emergency and Unit 17 and 15 medical staff for their compassion, commitment and excellent care of Léo Paul.
