Aaawww Mr. Provost I’m so so sad to hear of your passing.
My greatest memory of you is that every time i was over to see Tish, you would sing me that famous line…. Joséephine la pas fine, a pissé dans l’escalier, a été au ciel, a dit c’ta pas elle. Xox
Mr Provost was the sweetest Man around when he heard that a family need help he went and made sure they got help and when I got sick with cancer he sent message to see if I was okay Thank you Mr Provost ❤️
Please accept our condolences on the passing of Yves. Ronald and Yves grew up together in Rockland. Yves was Ronald’s uncle. Yves was younger than Ronald by two years and they had a close relationship growing up. Times were not easy in those days, but both had an entrepreneurial spirit and made their own way in life. We hope that all of the good memories will provide comfort to the family and friends Yves has left behind. We can only imagine that Yves has paved his way up to heaven!
With sincerest sympathies,
Ronald and Gayla
