Jean Joseph Louis Bourdon
April 16, 1947 - February 13, 2025
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Jean Joseph Louis Bourdon on Thursday, February 13, 2025.
Jean passed away at home, a few hours before his scheduled transfer to hospice, after a courageous battle with cancer.
He wanted to leave us on his terms, and he did.
Jean is predeceased by his wife, Carol Bourdon (Kimpel), his parents, Louis-Paul and Anne-Marie (Foisy), his sister Monique, and his brother Ronald.
He is survived by his children Jeannine Bourdon-Leclair and Denis Bourdon (Jennifer Sheppard), and his dear companion Louiselle Bourdon.
Also left to grieve are his siblings: Richard "Joe" (Madelaine), Pauline Dion (late Gerry), Pierre (Yvonne), Jacqueline Pepin (Michel),
Denise Raymond (Denis), Suzanne Martin (Michel Parent), Paul (Diane), Gerard (Lisette), Nicole Kingsbury (André), Joanne Arsenault (Troy),
Marc (Michelle), and Michel (Denise).
Jean will also be missed by his grandchildren: Sylvie Leclair, Caroline Leclair (Jimmy), Dennis Jr. (Jessie), Justin (Hayley),
William, and Courtney Bolton, along with his extended family, including Sherry McGlynn (Todd), Michael Parsons (Marion),
and Jason Parsons (Beata), and their children Luke McGlynn, Kate McGlynn, Courteney Parsons, Nolan Parsons, Carter Parsons, and Evelyna Parsons.
He will be remembered by countless nieces, nephews, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Jean retired after a long and enjoyable career as a truck driver. He spent his retirement reconnecting with family and friends,
mowing lawns, gardening, and hanging around Murray’s Garage in South Huron. He also enjoyed casino visits and crossword scratchers.
A celebration of Jean’s life will be held on Saturday, March 8, 2025, from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM at the Corbeil Four Seasons Club,
1482 Corbeil Road, Corbeil. The burial will take place at a later date in Kitchener at Memory Gardens Cemetery, where he will be laid to rest
with his beloved Carol.
