Marcel and I were buddies, I helped him move about 12 times and used to drive around Winnipeg in his Dodge Polara with the dash magnets lined up just perfectly. He was in the used oil pick-up business and knew his truck and his job inside out...a blue collar perfectionist. Good guy, lots of fun and gone far too soon. RIP buddy I remember how you used to love the name Jesus Christ in a good way. - Posted by: Jack Nemeth (pal) on: Feb 03, 2015

My deepest sympathy on the loss of your son Marcel, Christel, and a brother to Rene, Diane, Jules and Pierre, and to the rest of the family my deepest condolences. I new Marcel and Rene when they were two little brave boys and they would walk down the road where I would wait for them with the school bus at the end of the road every day of the week and drive them to school, until they moved away. Your old school bus driver From Fish Lake Road. Chatfield. - Posted by: Mary Ptashynski (Old school Bus Driver.) on: May 08, 2012
