Yvon Démoré, 66 died July 8, 2015 with his family by his side at Health Sciences North. Born July 21, 1948 in Hanmer, ON to the late Aldège and Adela Démoré. On March 4, 1967 he married the love of his life and "dear" Madeleine Laforest. Yvon was employed by INCO as a miner for 35 years and retired in 2002. He enjoyed spending time outdoors gardening, hunting and also enjoyed cooking, reading, singing and music. Yvon known for his humour, kindness, generosity and love, was always surrounded by his family and friends. He was a very special father to his three "homemade" children Daniel (spouse Liz Wills) Allan (spouse Mai-Lin) and Lynn (spouse Sean Pitre), his six "prefab" children Angela, Luc, Michael, Amanda, Riley and Callie and a special "papa" to his three "borrowed" children Aiden, Danté and Elizabeth. Yvon, "Pepère" is also survived by his nine grandchildren, Kristen, Chelsea, Ashley, Bradley, Adam, Hilda, Tyson, Sophia and Avayah. He will be sadly missed by his brother Leo (spouse Helene) and sister Stella (spouse Marcel). Yvon was preceded in death by his parents; father in-law Leonard Laforest; and two brothers Eddy and Roger. At his request no service will be held.
Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this very difficult time. May God Bless you and keep you in his loving arms for ever more. Your zest for life and your hearty chuckles will be greatly missed.
