Roger Daigle
It is with heavy hearts that the family of Roger Daigle announce his unexpected passing on Friday, August 14, 2015 at his residence. Born in Petit-Rocher, NB on October 23, 1947 he is the son of the late Frederick and Mary (Legacy) Daigle and loving husband of 35 years to Judy (Hackett) Daigle. Roger was a hardworking man, always a good provider for his family. He worked for NB Power at Coleson Cove for 31 years, until his retirement in 2001. Much like his work ethic, Roger was dedicated to his fitness. He woke every day at 5 am to go to the “Y” and work out. He loved his sports. He was a huge Blue Jays fan and really enjoyed wrestling and the UFC. Roger was full of laughter and a real joy to be around. He was a kind and loving husband, father, brother, uncle and grandfather. He will be deeply missed.
Along with his beloved wife Judy, he is survived by his only daughter Nicole Daigle (David Lloyd); brothers Omer (Linda) and Stanley (Yevette); sisters Marie Daigle, Doreen Churchill and Mary Rose Landry; his only grandchild Kennedy “Grampy’s Girl” and several extended family members and friends.
