FLEMING, Richard Michael Georges. June 22, 1942 - October 25, 2007. Richard passed away after a long battle with cancer, in the arms of his wife and family. He was the loving son of the late Marie Juliette Gauthier and Walter Richard Fleming. Cherished husband and soul mate to Orysia Wywiorka, brother to Anthony (Rhea), Mark (Jean) and Michael.

Brother-in-law to Helen DeVincentis (John). Uncle of many nieces and nephews. He also leaves to mourn, many friends. Richard will be fondly remembered by the many students whose lives he touched as a devoted teacher and as a respected principal at the Sault-St-Louis School Board. He found great pleasure in reading (several books at a time) and enjoyed listening to fine music. He was always keen to learn something new, he even learned to speak Ukrainian. His gentle nature and sincere demeanor left a lasting impression. He was well known for his quick wit and dry humour, which we will all miss. The family is sincerely grateful to the doctors and nurses in Oncology who lovingly cared for him over the years at St. Mary's Hospital.
