ROGER LIONEL JOSEPH MORISSETTE
April 13, 1946 - June 30, 2014

After a courageous struggle with cancer, Roger peacefully fell to sleep. Survived by his wife, Linda, daughter, Tara, son, Kris (Katie), sisters, Laura (Aime) Meilleur, Beatrice (Jed) Mendella, and brother, Rheal (Rita) Morissette, and many friends and family members. Predeceased by his parents, Armand and Elizabeth Morissette, and his sisters, Aurise Pommer and Armande Berard.

Roger was a loving dad and devoted husband with a smile that melted Linda's heart. A meat cutter for many years, he enjoyed hunting, fishing, cycling, and nature. He was a loyal friend, and a worthy adversary had you chosen to slight him. His unfaltering generosity, quiet demeanour, and genuine spirit have infiltrated our very being and will be remembered forever.

In lieu of flowers please give blood and donate to CancerCare Manitoba Foundation. A funeral service celebrating Roger's life will be held on Tuesday, July 8, 2014 at 11:00 a.m. with viewing one hour prior in Holy Family Church, 778 Archibald Street. Burial will follow in St. Boniface Cemetery.
