Mario Joseph Albert Perreault

It is with great sadness that the family of Mario Joseph Albert Perreault announces his passing on Monday, September 11, 2017 at the age of 80 years old. Mario was born March 6, 1937 to Tina (nee Bisio) and Louis Perreault.

Mario was predeceased by his wife Elaine in 2013. Dad will be lovingly remembered by his children Dawn (Doug Breckman, Danielle and Joshua), Kerry (Roger Gagne, Noah and Jeremy), Blayze (Adrienne, Rose and Louis), sister Betty (Art Kimery) and sister-in-law Sylvia Bohonos.

Dad attended St. Paul’s High School and was recognized as an “all around” athlete participating in football, hockey and baseball. He remained an avid sports fan.   Dad graduated from the University of Manitoba, Faculty of Law and was called to the Bar September 1962. He was an accomplished Lawyer. He held the position of City Solicitor for the then City of St. James and worked for what is now known as the department of Justice and Civil Litigation branch.

Dad was a devoted husband, father and grandfather.   Married in 1963, Dad and Mom celebrated 49 years of marriage before her passing. Dad was happiest when all of his children and grandchildren were together. He always made sure that everyone felt special. His sensitive and caring nature ensured that everyone was cared for in their own unique way. We will miss you every minute of every day dad!

A Memorial Mass will be celebrated on Friday, September 15, at 10:30 a.m. in the Notre Dame Roman Catholic Church in Selkirk, Manitoba.
