ROBERT (BOB) IRENEE BEAUDRY September 7, 1938 July 7, 2008 With great sorrow, we regret to inform of the departure of Bob Beaudry. After a courageous battle, Bob succumbed with grace to his illness on July 7, 2008 at Saint-Boniface Hospital. He will lovingly be remembered and forever missed by his daughter Nicole, his sons, Marc (Liana) and Joel (Val), the mother of his children Lorraine, and granddaughters: Evanne, Dalia, Marli and Vanessa. Bob will be dearly missed by his brothers and sisters, Mariette, Jules, Lorette, Chuck, John, Putt, Jo and Linda and their respective husbands, wives and families; and not to be forgotten his lifelong friend Glen Smith. He is predeceased by his parents Joseph and Marie-Paule Beaudry, eldest brother Georges, son Richard and his great loves: Penny, Cuddles, Tammy, Peaches, Brandy, Tiffany and Shelby. Bob earned his living as a men's hairstylist which provoked him to master his skills as analyst, storyteller and humourist; Dad always had a story or a joke to tell. Bob was an avid camper and fisherman who enjoyed the wilds, loved walking, cycling and travelling in his RV, and shared all these pursuits with his family throughout his life. There are places in Nopiming Provincial Park which will forever remind us of him. In keeping with Bob's wishes no funeral service will held, however, the family would like to invite Bob's friends and those who wish to pay their respects to a celebration of his life that will be held at Putt and Louise's on Saturday, July 12 at 3:00 p.m. located at 2020 Carriere Road, Grande Pointe, MB, R5A 1H9. If further directions are needed you may contact the Coutu Funeral Home at 253-5086. The family extends its heartfelt gratitude and thanks to the nursing staff of the Saint Boniface Hospital who tolerated his humour and cared for him with dignity and respect until his last breath. Godspeed Dad, Godspeed. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Bob's memory to a charity of your choice. The Coutu family in care of arrangements: E.J. COUTU CO.
