Roland was a kind, caring, generous, and respectful man. He was a hard worker who loved spending time with his family and friends. He was always willing to help those in need, whether it was to help put up Christmas lights, mow the lawn for his father, help his mother in the kitchen, help his brothers with their projects, opening the car door or giving flowers to his wife, helping his mother-in-law sweep the floor or talking or joking with his father-in-law for hours, Roland was there. He had a “joie de vivre”, loved to laugh and making others laugh.

Roland was a hard worker, having worked for many years at Jean Coutu in Bathurst, at GNC and Nectar Restaurant (the family business) where he made many friends.

Roland was a loving and attentive husband. He was greatly loved by his family and friends. He will never be forgotten and always in our hearts.
