Dear brother of Yvonne and the late Antoine.
Pierre grew up with a deep appreciation for the outdoors, spending his time fishing, hunting, and gardening.
He began his working years as a skilled stonemason, later transitioning to a longtime career as a Millwright at Lasco Steel.
In his recent years, he was a loyal hockey fan, rarely missing a game. He also enjoyed going out for meals with family and friends, listening to Italian accordion music, and watching heavy machinery operate on his tablet.
