In Memoriam

Remi Lefebvre

Continued on page 21

In Memoriam

Remi Lefebvre, 82, of Hudson, Quebec, passed away unexpectedly on August 19, 2020. Remi was born and raised in Hudson. He graduated from UniversitÊ de Montreal in pharmacy in 1961 and went on to be a pharmacist in Hudson and then Pointe-Claire. Remi was a loving husband to his wife Josephine (Jo) of 52 years and a terrific father to his two sons Robert and Marc. Remi also leaves behind his brother Jean-Claude, his two daughter in-laws Debra (Robert) and Christine (Marc), and four grandchildren Ryan, Cameron, Oscar and Benjamin. Remi was an accomplished amateur golfer who was passionate about the game. He won the Quebec Junior and the Quebec Amateur in the 1950’s, played for the Quebec Willingdon Cup team on several occasions, and won Whitlock Golf and Country Club’s Club Championship 9 times over 4 decades, the Match Play Championship twice, and the Senior’s Championship once. Given the current circumstances, there will be a celebration of Remi’s life at a later date. Donations may be made in Remi’s honor to NOVA Hudson at www.novahudson.com/wp/en/supportus/.
