LeBlanc, Gerard Delbert – Of Yarmouth, passed very peacefully in his sleep July 22, 2012 at 53 years young. He was a multi-faceted vibrant soul who touched the lives of many through his own demons he overcame and turned around to help others with theirs. His innate intelligence and curiosity bred a highly self educated man who seized the opportunity to reach out and help those dear to his heart, and to nurture and love the step children he was gifted with. He was passionate about people, animals, nature and rock music. He was greatly blessed in his last years to be surrounded by a close family who understood and loved him deeply. He had recently discovered close relatives from afar that he dearly would have loved to have met and he carries them in his heart. His final request would be for those who's lives he's touched to carry the message of hope and love, and “stay safe”. In peace and love he awaits: Anne LeBlanc (mother), Jeanne LeBlanc (sister), Susan Grant (wife); Step-Children; Carla Grant (Joey), Brian Grant (Tracy), Amber Siscoe (Brandon), Keith Siscoe (Twyla), Jarrett Robinson, Chayse Robinson, Sean Michael Paul (Son), Cornwall Ont.: Jenna Lamarche Paul (Daughter in law), Shayne Maurice Paul (Grandson), Adam Godin (Stepson) Yarmouth; Melissa Godin (Stepdaughter) Edmonton, Alta; Matt Godin (Stepson), Toronto, Ont.
