He was predeceased by loving wife of 45 years, Hazel. Louis worked for the Town of Labrador City for over 25 years, and retired in 1997. He was very active in his community through the Lions Club, where he served as president, was a member of the Labrador City Fire Department, the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 47, and the Labrador West Seniors Group, where he also served as president. He was a member of the St. Paul's Anglican Church where he was a member of the vestry, the joint board of churches, and parish council and acted as treasurer for many years. Dad's passions included elections, working as returning officer and deputy returning officer with numerous provincial and federal elections. He also loved to grow and sell flowers in the spring from his greenhouse. Our family would like to sincerely thank Dr. Brendan Parfrey and his medical team as well as the compassionate nurses who tended to him during his final days. They made him comfortable and treated him with dignity and grace. Visitation was held on Wednesday, November 15 at St. Andrews Anglican Church in L’Anse au Clair followed with a service celebrating Louis's life on Thursday, November 16 at 2:00 p.m. A memorial service will take place in Labrador City at a later date.
