MARCEL BOONE Marcel passed away peacefully on Tuesday, December 6, 2005 with his family by his side. Marcel was predeceased by his son Donald; brothers, Charles and Frank; and sister Mary Knockaert (nee Boone). Marcel loved his family with all his heart and will be forever cherished by his beloved wife Leona (nee Davis); his children, Dale (Don Chenier), Doug, Darlene (Gerry Landino) and Darcy; grandchildren, Jennifer (Leonard Kleiber), Shannon, Jonathan (Jamie), Catherine (Andrew Strempler), Gina and Selina; great-grandchildren, Ethan, Addison and James; sister Marietta (Robert Bocksteal); brother Joseph; sister-in-law Margaret; as well as countless friends and family. Dad loved Mom with everything in his heart. He loved each of his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren just as much; with love to spare. We hear his voice in everything we do. A voice that spoke ill of no one, never toiled on small talk, hugged the world and shared the beauty he saw in everything and everyone. A voice that overflowed with patience, and reverberated the love it carried for every one of God's creations. We see his face in our minds eye, his fast smile, his trouble making eyes, his bushy eyebrows that thundered wisdom, his beautiful face. Through your lifetime God has formed you into the beloved son He intended you to be. He has finished His work and has called you home. You are complete in Him, perfect in His image. May we all live our lives with the class, poise and love that you did, carrying on your legacy for generations to come. Many blessings to Dr. L. M. Cummings, M.D., Dr. Darin Feasy, nurse Carrie and the support staff at Palliative Care. Come and celebrate Dad's life with us on Sunday, December 11 at 4:00 p.m. at Saint Boniface Golf Club, 100 Youville St. Have a blessed day! In lieu of flowers, donations can be sent to Hospice and Palliative Care Manitoba, 2109 Portage Ave., Winnipeg, MB R3J 0L3.
