He had an inquisitive mind and a thirst for knowledge; technology and electronics were his passion. Throughout his life and into retirement you would find him in his shop either working on the lathe, rewinding a motor for a neighbour, or working on one of his projects; like transforming an old Volkswagen into a battery operated car, for our mother to drive back and forth to the blueberry field, or building a windmill that generated electricity to the old homestead on top of the hill in College Bridge. He also enjoyed fly fishing, reading, and family get together with "old time songs" and lots of laughter. He will be missed, and fondly remembered, by his three daughters; Jeannette Sears (Mike), Lorraine Leblanc (Fernand), Patricia Leblanc, sons; Bernard and Normand (Nancy), daughter in law; Janice Richard all of Memramcook N.B; his grandchildren, whom he truly enjoyed; Jeremy, Christine, Melanie, Joline, Mathieu, Daniel, Adam, Alex, Corey, and Erika, his great grandchildren; Mason, Jackson and Anabelle.
