It is with sadness that the family of Leon Houle, 68, of Powell River, BC, informs the community that he died on Saturday, May 7, 2011. Leon was born in Kimberley, BC and was married to Shirley. He is also survived by children Brian, Michelle and Denise, grandchildren TJ, Alexa, Talia and Gavin.
Yesterday at a small family gathering we spread Dad’s ashes down near the pier in Powell River. He has now been laid to rest. We miss you Dad — you went too soon.
Here is a shot of Dad’s memorial at the Mile Zero marker in Lund.
Our family celebrated Christmas a few days early in Gibsons, all of us descending on my brother’s place for three days of visiting, cooking and eating. Your grandkids are growing up fast, dad; you would have loved to see them. We missed you pops.
Leon & Shirley having some fun
