SUPPORT THE FAMILY - GOD BLESS YOU
Gérald’s passing came suddenly, leaving his loved ones stunned. Just days earlier, he was visited at his nursing home by family members, a moment that has now become a cherished memory. His son, who had recently traveled to Canada for his 40-year high school reunion, shared the deeply personal account of seeing his father during that visit.
“That morning, with my mother’s sister Simonne Benoit, we picked up my mother and brought her to see my father,” he wrote. “I am so glad I was able to do that. Unfortunately, my sister arrived an hour too late, and I hadn’t left yet to go see him again. I just can’t believe it. It happened so quickly.”
Gérald’s life was marked by his devotion to his family and the deep bonds he maintained throughout the years. His loved ones remember him as a man of quiet strength, warmth, and love — someone who always remained at the heart of family gatherings and moments of connection.
His passing has left an especially profound impact on his children, who describe him as both a guiding presence and a constant source of support. In their tribute, his son wrote simply but powerfully: “Repose en paix, Da 💔.”
Though his life has come to a close, Gérald Breau’s legacy will continue through the love he gave his family and the memories they will hold dear. His story is now woven into theirs, reminding them of the importance of presence, connection, and cherishing time with loved ones.
Funeral arrangements have not yet been announced, but family and friends are expected to gather soon to honor Gérald’s life and memory.
For those who knew him, the suddenness of his passing has served as a poignant reminder to hold loved ones close. As his family mourns, they also celebrate the gift of one final visit — a precious moment that will be remembered forever.
