Smagac, Walter Frank

In loving memory of Walter Frank Smagac, 90 years, who passed away peacefully on September 30, 2015, at Pioneer Manor, with his loving family by his side. Devoted husband of 66 Years to Glorianne (nee Beaudette). Loving father of Paul, Gail Lafreniere (Richard), Jo-Ann Lemelin (Claude), Colette Lagrandeur, Walter (Nicole), John (predeceased), Carmen, Rosanne (Dan St-Pierre), Louann Thelland (Steve). Beloved brother of Jeanne Smagac. He will be sadly missed by his 19 grandchildren, 23 great-grandchildren and 2 great-great- grandchildren. Frank grew up in Capreol. At a young age he joined the Canadian Armed Forces where he served overseas for 5 years during and after WWII. Upon his return to Capreol after the war, he began his 34 year long career at Canadian National Railway. Once retired, he indulged in his favorite pass times which included woodworking, sitting on the swing with his dog by his side and enjoying his gazebo. In keeping with Frank’s wishes, there will be no service. Donations to the Capreol Legion Branch 179 would be appreciated.
