Our sincere sympathy on the passing of your dear sister and aunt. Irene was a very hardworking lady who focused on serving clients at D`Eschambault Ltd. pleasantly and with integrity. She told us Henri d`Eschambault hired her for her first job when she came from the country to the city, and stayed until retirement. She was a kind, reliable person and a super team member who greatly supported Arthur and all the staff. She patiently mentored many young new employees who respected her experience, including Diane Demare who remained her life long helpful friend. Another amicable relationship she had was with Mlle. Caron. The d`Eschambault family feel blessed and appreciate all those wonderful years of professional loyal service. May your wonderful memories of her bring you comfort as she now returns to the loving embrace of our Creator, hearing His words: “Enter good and faithful servant “ amicalement, Gilbert and Elsie d`Eschambault and family. - Posted by: Gilbert and Elsie d`Eschambault (employer and friend) on: Dec 14, 2014
