Divorce Wife: Mary Lillian Anne Arbour Villeneuve; Date of Birth: 07 Oct 1930; Common Law to: Edgar Villeneuve 1966 to 2000; Mother Deceased: 16 Jan 2000

My mother's divorce lawyer deceived me the first time I met him,pretending to be representing Lawyer to my Father's Estate. I thought this lawyer was the Senate Lawyer my Father spoke of -- at least that is what this lawyer and Lillian Mary Ann Arbour Villeneuve led me to believe. Three years had passed since Iheard my father's lawyer's name. When my mother's divorce lawyer said he was my Dad's Lawyer, Ijust assumed he wasbecause the names were similar. I was not thinking of Dad's Estate or Lawyers, just the pain of losing the only person thateverloved or caredabout me. My father's Estate lawyeragreed to sit on Willard Ernest Arbour' s Will. He also agreed not to hand it back into the courts, for the sum of Fifty Thousand Dollars which would come out of the Estate. Hired bymy mother's divorce lawyer and my father's estate lawyer, their legal secretary and her accomplice forced my father to sign over his entire Estate to the legal secretary on 06 Jul 1980, just thirty-seven hours beforehe died. I lived with my Father three years before he died of cirrhosis of the liver. He did not even know who I was six or seven months before his passing, let alone be of sound mind to the secretary's own hand-written falsified Will. Thissecretary and her accomplice had donethis kind of shady work for my mother's divorce lawyer in the past , along with her long time friend and comrade, a local government employee. This government employee was hired by the divorce lawyer's secretaryin assisting them in this shady work, not only with my father but withmore people in the past. A nurseat the hospital (Civic Hospital) who was a witness to the legal secretary's own hand-written Will was not Willard Ernest Arbour's nurse, but justpassing bymy father'sroom; who didnot actually see Willard Ernest Arbour Sr. sign any Will, only tooktheword of the other witness, the government employee. A Judge, a trustedand long time friend of my mother's divorce lawyer, who was sick at the time due toalcohol was signing papers at will for this divorce lawyerwithout a glance as to what wason them. This judge would not have signed these papers if he knew what was on these papers, but he trusted this divorce lawyer. A third party lawyerfromanother firm doctored and falsified the necessary papers that had to be done, then put them backin the hands of divorce lawyer. The divorce lawyer knew Lillian Mary Ann Arbour Villeneuve, the Divorced wife of Willard Ernest Arbour,could notgoaftermy father's Estate. This is why they put the Estate in the legalsecretary's name. Then whenitwas time to go to court, Lillian Mary AnnArbour Villeneuve would only have to contest the secretary's hand written Will.For afee, thesecretary would notgive Lillian Arbour Villeneuve a hard time in court. The legal secretary for her part shewould receive Ten Thousand Dollars -- Eight Thousand Dollars would come out of theEstate for her, Two Thousand Dollars was paidtoher long time friend and comrade,the government employee, shortly after they made Willard Ernest Arbour Sr. sign over hisentire Estate. The divorce lawyer was always keeping Lillian Arbour Villeneuve well informed and upto date over thephone. Ioverheard a conversation betweenthetwo on how the divorce lawyer was having a hard time finding a judge to hear his case.The courtswere so tied up; the divorce lawyer tried frantically to get a judge to hear his case. The divorce lawyer mentioned to my mother that he had to hurry to get his case heard, that he had a deadline to keep. The divorce lawyer also said,hehad to get these papers along with other papersthat lawyers were gathering up into the archives warehouse in a hurry.He mentioned that these papers were not going tosurvive or surface ever again. The divorce lawyer told my mother that if he could notget hiscase heard in time, that he might have to go over to the Quebec side.There he would have to get a judge to come over to Ontario, to hear his case -- a QuebecJudge was willing to come to Ontario side to hear the divorce lawyer'scase.

The divorce lawyer, whom I still assumed was my father's estatelawyer,came to metell methat there was a woman trying to get my Father's WidowsPension. He also told me that this was the same women who got my Father's Estate. He feltstrongly that my mother should be entitled to the Widows Pension, because shewas theonlywomen who was ever legally married to my Father. I asked this lawyer what he meant when he said "some woman got my Father's Estate"? This lawyer said, "Yes,therewas a hearing a while back and this woman claimed to be his girlfriend or somethingor another. But she managed to get your Father's Estate." I asked this lawyer how can there be a hearing without me, he only replied that he didn't know. It happens, he replied. This lawyer said that all he could do now is to start representing my mother and make sure that this woman doesn't get away with the Widows Pension. Prior to having this Quebec judge hear the lawyer's final case, this lawyer was coachingme. He kept saying, "Now remember, only speak whenI askyouto. When I ask you if you know of thiswomen (legal secretary?), I just want you to reply 'No, that you didn't know her and you have never seen her before.' I'll do the rest." I met thislawyer, my mother, and sister Dianne outside the courtroom the day wewent up in front of the Quebec judge. This fraudulent lawyer motioned everyone into the courtroom, except for me. He said that hewanted me to wait in the lobby until he cameand got me andhe remindedme of my lines.What seemed likea long time, took about twenty to twenty-five minutes. This fraudulent lawyer finally came out of the courtroomand waved me in. A final whisper from this fraudulent lawyer, "Remember just answer my questions,nothing more or less." I was introduce to the Quebec judge as Mrs. Lillian Arbour oldest son. I took the stand immediately. The Quebec judge asked me if I knew the person (legal secretary) or have I ever seen her before? I looked atthe women he was pointingat, right awaythe look of this women was cold. The legal secretary hadbluish-gray hair very richly looking, the clothes to match dark blue and gray in color. There was no chance my father or I even as much as talkedto this type of women, let alonethis women beingin my father's apartment which smelt of diarrhea months before my Dad entered the hospital. I replied to the fraudulent lawyer's question saying, "I nor my father have ever seen this person ever. I continued to say that Ilived with my father for three years prior to his death, that this person was an impostor. I asked the women who she was and why she was doing this? I looked at the judge to explain everything to him, but this judge was writing, looking down asif he didn't heara word I said. This fraudulent lawyer immediately stopped everything, saying, "oh!-oh! May we be excused for a minute or two"? Without bringing his head up to acknowledge me orthis fraudulent lawyer, thejudge just nodded his head sayingnothing. This fraudulent lawyer quickly asked me to step down for a moment, motioningwith his hand in a quick manner. I stepped down wondering what was going on, I sat next to my mother. In a scolding whisper she said, I think you spoiled itfor me.I replied,"what" and at that precise time this fraudulent lawyer called me out to the hallway. Confused to what my mother said, I went with this fraudulent lawyer hoping for an explanation. All thisfraudulent lawyer said was for me to wait outin the hallway,that I was getting the women upset and that he would call me in shortly. This fraudulent lawyer stopped a passerby police officer asking him to make sure I did not re-enterthe courtroom. Needless to say, the policeofficerdid what this fraudulent lawyer wanted. Once again I was waiting in the hallway for this fraudulent lawyer to come and get me, but henever did. Later, my mother and sister Dianne came out of the courtroom. Iwent upto them asking, "What happened?"Mothersaid,"Nothing happened. It's over." "What do you mean it's over!! Did you get the Widows Pension?" I replied." "Yes, I got it. Now come on, let's go." Shortly afterthat, I heard on the radio that there was water damagedone toabuildingthat housed Wills andEstates. There were thousandsof documents, that were destroyed. Right away I thought of the divorce lawyer and the otherlawyers, they destroyed everything. I wentto the police about these lawyers trying to railroad my Father'sEstate but theycouldnot help me, without any names. Well, I still did not have any names. Until my mother requested to see me, at her death bed. Only then, did I know the truth,my mother told me that this fraudulent lawyer was in facther Divorce Lawyer, that this fraudulent lawyer wasnever my Father's lawyer. She sat me down and explained everything, most of it I already knew. I asked Lillian Arbour Villeneuve if she remembered what my Father's Lawyer's name was but she couldn't remember. She told me to go to the Notre Dame Cemetery for that information, that it would be there.

I knew roughly the where abouts my Father was buried, but not the exactspot. On06 July 2003 on oneof my regular visits to the cemetery, I continued the search for Dad. Having no luck in my search, I once again left the cemetery. As I was driving out, an elderly lady was sitting on the edge near theentrance. She was wearing a white dress,with a flowered pattern. There was such apleasant-peaceful look about her,sheimmediately became the focal point to my interest. I stopped the vehicle across the road and watched her for a moment. She seemed like, she was sketching something from a distance. I stepped out of the vehicle, walkingtowardher. I sat inconversation range from her. We talked about the day and her sketch which was quite good. Imentioned to her that I was visitingmy father, butthat he was playing a little hide and seek game with me.I told her I've been searching for my dad's burial sight for years, but could not find him. She pointed to a building saying, "If you go to the office of the cemetery from 8 to 5 pm, they would know where he was buried." Well, once again, my education has embarrassed me at an inconvenienttime. Who would have known that dead people needed an office too?I left thanking her, as she spoke her last words to me. "Whenyou find your father, plant him some flowers. Dead people love flowers too, you know." The pleasant memory of thislady kept me up halfthe night. I'm not the spiritual kind of guy, but if there was ever an angle. On 07 July2003,with the memory of this lady still fresh onmy mind. Iwoke up late, arriving at the Notre Dame Cemetery at around 2 pm. An employee whom I will notidentify kindly approached me, offering me her assistance. Giving her the same name as my father,lettingher know what great lengthsI have searched for my father, I asked her if she could help me locatemy father's burial site. Theemployeewas only too happy help me, in what seemed like such a small quest. The employee went to the files, coming back towards meshe looked a little disappointed. "Are you sure your father was buried here?" she replied. She said there wasno record of a Willard Ernest Arbour listed by that name. Of course my father is buriedhere, I replied, slightlybaffled to what the employee was saying. Shewent back to check the files again, this time coming back with the look of accomplishment.This is why we could not find him, yourfather was buried under the name of Ernest Willard Arbour. I thought in angersaying to myself, "It figures those crooks couldn't even bury Dad in his right name. The employee gave the area where dadwas, Posse (lot) #212 section64 - A. Feeling eagerness in finally finding Dad, soon came to confusion anda sense of lost. I was havinga hardtime finding the location and quickly went back to see the employee, she sent a grounds person to show me. When we reached an empty area of the cemetery, thegrounds person stood there with his arms pointing in an southerlydirection. He said, "thisis where your father is, his head at my feet and his legs pointingin that direction." Sadly, dad had nostone or plate to mark his resting place. I asked himhow he knew myfather was buried in that particular spot. Hepointed at a small gray brick inthe ground with a silver platepop riveted to it. Engraved to this small metal plate was the words that read POSSE # 212Section 64 - A. I was outraged thatlawyers cashed inon my fathersEstate disinheriting me and they couldn't even properly mark Dad's grave site. Back to the cemetery office, I spoke again to theemployee. I asked her how would Igo about getting a stone in place formy dad. That area was of common ground, nothing to be erected in that area. That I would have to place a plate there only. I inquired about aplate. The price of these plates were very highly priced. The employeesaid, "Just pay for it out of the Estate." I toldher (knowing the lawyers destroyed all the records)there was no Estate. She kind of giggled saying,"Yes, there is." I replied, that there wasn't. Again she giggled saying, "Oh, yes, there is!" I was getting a little upset asto what she was sayingandasked her what she meant. Once again she said in a gigglingkind of way, Oh yes there is an EstateandI'll prove it to you. Cheerfully walking away from me saying, "Here I'll show you what I mean,"shereplied. The employee came back withsome papers which had some information ofmy dad. The employeehad to explain everything to me because the informationwas in French. The employee gave me a copy of these papers. I went to 100 Spark Street, thereI was toldthat THE FIRM movedto 200 Elgin St. onthemain floor. There I met another female lawyer, she told me that the Estate Lawyer has been dead for tenyears. I asked her about my Fathers Will, if you want to know what happened to your Father'sWill just go across the street to the courthouse toPublic Records and find out there what happened to it. Once again my education has failed me. I had no knowledge of this Public Records. As long as I was gettingleads to all thisinformation,I was determined to investigate.

On08 July 2003, Iordered File # 62880/80 : Date Received 10 July 2003. Title of Proceedings: Estate of Willard E. Arbour. Receiving this File of Documents the papers were almost like brittle texture. When questioned,the clerkreminded me of thewaterdamage. These papers were not suppose to survive, hoping they have some prove my quest for the truth. I called the cemetery employee to thank her once again, but she said she couldn't talk to me anymore. That herjob was threatened andnot to callherback,thatshe needed her job. I started a little protest in front of theLawyers Building 200 Elgin Street, A reporter of the local news covered the story but down-played it a lot. I had the privilege of talking tothe accomplice'sdaughter.She acknowledged knowing of her mother's friend the Estate secretary the daughter said, "I saw you on the news. I was appalled on what the Estate secretary has done to you. I was not a bitsurprised that the Estate secretary didthis, knowing her past. I neverliked thatwoman." When I implicated her mother, I could tell that she was shocked. Excuse me! "My mother is a Born Again Christian, she would never take part in anything like this." I mentioned to the daughter that her mother knowingly signed Estatesecretary's illegal Will. The daughter did not want to believe me. She was to talk to her mother and get back to me. I waited a week, then called the daughter back. She talked with her mother, now wanted to see the Willthat her motherwitnessed.Shesaid, "Iknow my mothers signature and wanted to compare." I obliged her by immediately bringing a copy toher on Meadowlands Dr. hoping she would get her mother to correct a wrong.Instead,I was wrong,she quicklychanged herphone number.

1. The Estate lawyer did not hand Dad's Will back into the courts. Is it possible they might have been destroyed?
2. 31 Mar 1980 till his death 08 Jul1980. Why did the Estatesecretary an educated women of the legal profession wait till hours of my Fathersdeath, to sign over his Estate to her? The Estate secretary gave information to Kelly's Funeral Home on Somerset Street W. Branch on my Father,which was unknownto her. i.e.:Social Insurance Numberor Place of Birthwas false.
3. Dad was takingmorphine, a man who they claim to be of sound mind. The Estate secretary's hand written Will, is no joking matter. It was a deliberate, planned Criminal Act.
4. The Estate secretary and the accomplice done this kind of Criminal Act for the divorce lawyer before they did it to my Father.
5. The divorce lawyer went to his grave a broke man, knowing a lot of lawsuits wouldtake place after his death. Did the Estate secretary pass away broke too, in fear of a Lawsuitagainst her Estate?
6. The Estate secretary accomplice has a house in Manotick, Ontario, and is still very muchalive. Will she sell her housetoo in fear of a Lawsuit?
7. Itried to contact the Estate secretary accomplice by phone, at the address1195 Meadowlands Dr. E . The Estate secretary accomplice's daughter switched names in obtaining a phone through Bell Canada.
8. My biological mother's second husband sold the house he shared with Mrs. Lillian ArbourVilleneuve as soon as he found out I wasafter the truth.
9. Why did the lawyers end up with most of the money from my dad's Estate?
10. How much was actually paid outto the lawyers?
11. Someone must have cutthe lawyersa promissory note of somekind, to dad's Estate, Life Insurance, and Pension
12. The fraudulent lawyer confronted me saying, "Look-it, Iknow your Fathergot screwedout of his Estate, but it was your motherthat did it. I should knowI did the paper work to make it happenfor her. Ask her she'll tell you." I told the fraudgenantlawyer I didn't have a mother, I had a Father.That he was goingto pay for what he did to my father. Hequickly got a gag order against me not to challenge them, depriving me of my right to Free Speech & Rights toProtestagainst a crime that the lawyers did against my Father. They will continue to cheat the deadand there loved-ones if I do not take a stand now.
13. I've beenthreaten of alawsuit or thrown in jail if I continueto defame whattheycallthe good reputation of these people.
14. I am not defaming anyone. They are defaming meby calling me a liar.
15. Day of the Court Order that wasplaced on 02 Mar 2004. I wasambushedby the police and lawyers, toldto be in court in ten minutes.Inadequatetime to prepare my case.
16. Lawyers asked for atemporary Court Order, becausethey intended to sue me. Arethey stalling for time? Hoping everyoneinvolved woulddie soonor later.
17. Why can I notbe heard in front of a Judge and Jury?

Iwas told positive remarks of The Law Society --well, we'll see. The last thing you want is tohave your children or your grandchildren, askingfor justice for you. After the parents hired a low down snake to protect their Will and Estate fortheir loved ones. More Information: On dad's WILL and Estate, please contact:Call: (613) 566 - WILL; Fax: (613) 233-8629

Thank you, Willard Alexander Arbour Jr.

I can not and will not stop until there is aPublic Inquiry of some kind into this matter. If you wish to respond tothis statementpleasee-mail me at: whowil a magma.ca

By 19 Aug 2008, a new message appeared on Will's website:
Hello, I'm Willard E. Arbour Sr. I died of cirrhosis of the liver aftersuffering some 18 months fromit. Myson spentmy last three yearsliving with me.I spent my last 3 months in hospital under heavy medication so I could deal with the pain. Not 36 hours before I died, a woman asked me to sign what was in her words my"new will and testament": instead ofleavingeverything tomysonfor himto distribute amongmy other six childrenand himself, this new will asked me to give everything to someone I didn't know, I refused. The womansigned my name; I didn't sign. Proof? Why would I sign E. W.Arbour, asshown on the new will, when my realname is W.E. Arbour? -- always has been. Other things don't hang together either. They buried me as E. W. Arbourand listed Nextof Kin as my lawyer and law firm: they duped my son and my children received nothingof my estate, perhaps $300. It'snot fair, it's theft or illegal by some replacement will and testament, the one I certainly did not sign. That signature is not mine. It's a forgery. This seems so obvious and simple to correct: why can't itbedone?My son hasbeen carryingtheburden allthese years; sure, you can see it still on his shoulders as this sandwich board. If you know of a way to lighten hisburden or to help himcarry this (his andmy) message to perhaps a hundred honestand generouspeople whocan usetheirinfluence to right awrong, please let my son know how. He is willing, but he hasn't been listened to or heard. If youare moved by thisstory and would like to see justice done, please sign the petition.

Notes:

 

From his cousin Catherine MOUSSEAU DUNNE via email on 14 Jul 2009: He was born on 12 April 1951. Yes, I know about his website. There is something you should know - his website is full of bull you know what. When my great-uncle Williard died in July of 1980 there was a bit of money. It was left to my Aunt Lillian (perhaps withthe assumption that she would share it with the children - she didn't). Willy (as heis known in the family) never said boo about the money until some time after his mother died in January of 2000. It is my opinion and that of most of the family (including some of this siblings) that he is not playing with a full deck. How inGod's name do you sue dead people for money? Because allthe people involved in his "case" are dead. He has even chained himself to a tree outside the courthouse.

From Cathy via email on 19 Aug 2009: Willie has one son who is mentallydisabled - and I do not know his name because for some reason he has never been "talked" about in the family.

Ottawa Sun (ON) -- 15 Jul 2010 -- by Doug Hempstead
HINTONBURH RESIDENT HAS THE BOOM-BOOM BLUES
Joan McIntyre is feeling cranky these days. The 73-year-old mother of eight can't sleep. "I took a sleeping pill around 9:30 pm and I was still awake at 11 pm," McIntyre said. "It didn't doanything." The Hintonburg resident's apartment is sixfloorsup, and directly faces the Bluesfest main stage, a few blocks away. Having lived in the building for 20 years, and in the same unit for two years, McIntyre said it seems Bluesfest is just as loud as ever. But her city councillor, Diane Holmes, disagrees. Holmes said the main audio board for the main stage is supposed to be putting out 90 decibels of sound this year, as opposed to 95 in 2009. "We've had no complaints at all," Holmes said. "Everything is going great." McIntyresaid making complaints to the city is "hopeless."Her apartment is close enough to hear live acts through the walls and over the hum of her air conditioner, even when the main stage isn't featured. She said it gets worse after 9 pm. She saidshe can't make out any ofthe music. "Boom, boom, boom -it's not even blues," McIntyre said. "It gets louder as the night goes on. You can't sleep." On weekends when music starts at noon, McIntyre has taken to simply leaving for the day."I'd rather spend money on gas," shesaid. "It's a terrible time of year." Holmes said the city's health department has put up signs about hearing loss at Bluesfest this year. The event wraps-up Sunday night.

Willard Ernest ArbourComment -- 15 July 2010 12:42 pm
It seems to me that every complaint, no matter, our city councilors always downplay the situation. From slumlords to drug dealers, drug users,prostitutes and yes even murder of a 73-year old wheelchair-boundman at 721 Chapel Crescent. Our so-calledcouncilors always disagree, makingour Good Samaritans feel like our councilors are calling us liars. It's no wonder why our citizens throw in the towel. It serves us no purpose to complain to the people in power, they care less. WhoWil.com

From cousin Cathy on 20 Aug 2010: Brendan and I will be attending the memorial. It is actually atthe church where we were married - and on theday we were married - so we will celebrate our 24th wedding anniversary at a funeral. Willie did NOThave more than one son - he had one biological son (James) - however, after his sister Debbie died, Willie did not want his nephew Trevor to be put into foster care and so he took himin and raised him for a while. Trevor was difficult - Wilie was worse -and Trevor left and went to live with his half brother Jason. Trevor has actuallyhad no contact with Willie in over a year. BUT suddenly Willie is dead - Trevor feels he may have an opportunity to sue someone so. .. Cathy

From Willie's online Guestbook
21 August 2010
I will miss you Willy, we havedone so much together. Thank you for the fun times we had. I'll always remember kid! ~ Marie Vavros, Ottawa, Ontario

From Willy's funeral: Willy's nephew (Ruth's son Teddy) gave one of theeulogies. He startedby saying: Peopleeitherloved Willy or hated Willy.There was no in-between. Sadly, he was right. Willy lived in a "not sogreat" neighbourhood so some of the people attendingthe memorial were "interesting". A couple of the people actually had social workers with them. One of the neighbourhood people gave an eulogy as well. He said that Willy took care of his neighbours - if a child needed a bike, he got them one -an elderly gentlemen needed help with groceries and other things and Willywas always thereto help - there were many stories like that. You know, the one thing Willy wanted mostout of life was the one thing he never had - and that was a loving family life. He had a horrible childhood as a young adult he had problems withalcoholandended up in jail a time or two - as he got older he was plagued by mental health issues. I sincerely wish with all my heart that he is resting in peace.

Willy's sister Beverly did not come home for the funeral nor did her son,Michael, who lives here in Ottawa. Willy's sister Ruth and her husband Don were there. Ruth actually took care of all the arrangements. Her children came. Tammy came with her partner Mike. Teddy was there with his wife Leslie and their sonTyler. Willy's sister Diane was there and her daughter Kelly-Jo. Willy's brother Timmy was there with his 72 year old girlfriend - he's 53 - she has money - need Isay more??!! Timmy, God love him, is back on drugs. A number of peoplecommented on hisappearance which was not good. Neither of Timmy's children (Tara or Benjamin) were there. This really bugs me that his own niece and nephews could not be bothered to go to his funeral. Trevor (Willy's sister's Debbie's son -whoWilly helped raise) was there. I hate to say it but there is something "off" abouthim. He looks creepy and he gave me the shivers. He had not seen Willy in over a year. James (Willy's son) was there with two social workers. He is being permanently placed in an institution for the mentally handicapped/ill. When everything was over and done with and it was time for him to leave he started shouting: Help. They are taking me against my will. They are tryingto lock me up. (Very sad). If youwant an idea of what he looks like these days (the picture you have isold) look up on the internet "Andre the giant". He was a wrestler - take away about 4 feet of height and you have James. Norman Arbour (my Great-Uncle Lawrence's son) came to the funeral. We spoke for a few minutes. Willy's aunts and uncles: Aunt Kay did not feel like going so she didn't. Aunt Irene and Uncle Dan andtheir daughter Theresa came. Uncle Reggie and Aunt Ella did not come because of healthreasonsbuttheirsonRoger came - which was very thoughtful because Roger did not know Willy atall. Uncle Jackie and his two sons Timmy and Robbie came. Robbie also brought his daughter Caitlyn. My mother of course could not attend. Infact, I had to leave the funeral for a while so I could come home and giveMom her meds. Brendan and I were there. Andrew was not. Andrew did not know Willy. Because of my upbringing Andrew was shielded from a lot of my family when he was growing up.Janie (my sister) and her two children, Ashley and Tyler were there. Rod was unable to go. Brendan and I brought my two brothers with us as well - Rick and Ron. That's it for blood relatives. Eddie (who was Lillian's partner forover 35 years]wastherewithhis daughter Claire. Gordie (husband of Willy's deceased sister Patsie) was there. My in-laws came to support our side of the family. Therest were friends of Willy.

It was an "interesting" time because some ofthe people there werementally ill. James wandered around giggling and muttering. He would say to people: I look like Andrew the giant and start laughing. There was an autistic young man there who kept shouting out. The strangest thing for me was this woman comes upto me. I was looking at the photo lay out theyhad of Willy. She asks me which one is Willy. So I start pointing out various pictures of Willy. She asks if there are other pictures so I point to one and say: There's Willy. She turns around and looks at the gathering of people and says: Where? I said: He's not here. He's dead. Oh, she says. Then she asks me where his father is. I tell her that he's dead as well. Oh, she says and wanders away.

From Catherine MOUSSEAU DUNNE via email on 19 Aug 2009: My cousin Patsie who passed away this past June had awonderful sense of humour. She used to turn the awful things (her motherwas Lillian) that happened at home as a childinto funny stories. Aunt Lillian sent her to my grandmother's house one summer for 2 weeks. Patsie told my grandmother thather birthday was the next day. My grandmother quicklywent to the five and dime store and bought her a gift, baked her a cake,and had a wee party for her. Grandma knew what a hard life Patsie and the others had with Aunt Lillianand even though money was tight wanted to do something special for Patsie. At the end of the two weeks Aunt Lillian arrives to get Patsie and grandma gives her hell for missing her daughter's birthday . . . Aunt Lillian says, but her birthday is in September. A saying of Patsie's was always: I married Gordie for his money and I'm not leaving him until I find it. A bittersweet story about Patsie would be when she got cancer. She ended up having numerous surgeries and she would always tell thedoctor she loved him and make him tellher that he loved her as well. She would even get him to hug her and kiss her cheek. Then as they would bewheeling her into surgery she'd look at the doctor and remind him that he loved her and you wouldn't let someone you love die now would you??!! I have told you about Willie having mental health issues - even though he was Patsie's brother, when hewould do something outrageous, like he once chained himself to a tree on the Ottawa Courthouse lawn, she would be the first to come out with something funny about it. She told me that even though she lived in a different city from Willie any time shewanted to see him all she had todo was turn on the 6 o'clock news.

FromCatherine via email on 19 Aug 2009: Patsie was unable to havechildren.

Notes:

 Debbie had two children. A son named Jerry (his father was her stepfather's son Jerry Villeneuve) and a son named Trevor (unfortunately when he was conceived Debbie's schizophrenia was not being treated and she had no idea who the father was). She died when Trevor was quite young and her brother Willie raised him until he was about 16 or 17 . . . atthat point Trevor moved in with his 1/2 brother Jerry.
