DESORMEAUX, Robert

1939 - 2021

It is with deep regrets that the Desormeaux family announces the passing of Robert (Sly) Albert Desormeaux at home, on Friday December 24, 2021, at the age of 82, after a lengthy battle with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).

Sly will be greatly missed by his two children, Luc (Marie-Eve Champagne) and Anne-Marie (Scott Saunders), his brothers, Andre (Carmelle Beauchamps), Jean Jacques (Gloria) and Gerard (Jocelyne Malboeuf). Sly is further survived by his 5 grandchildren, Luka, Camille, Juliette, Meghan, Jaime and many nieces and nephews.

Sly was predeceased by his beloved wife, Suzanne Beauchamps, his parents, Albert and Jeanne (Lemieux) and sister Denise (Roger Asselin).

He will be remembered by his companion and friend Claire Dufresne and many other friends and co-workers.

Sly spent his life and cherished his time, working in the construction industry for 50 plus years.  His work ethics, dedication and pride, enabled him to build a company, “Sly Crete”, which later evolved and is now known as “Latcon (2009) Ltd.” in the Ottawa-Gatineau region.   It was not uncommon to see him working around the shop, although he maintained he was retired.  Sly became a friend to anyone he met and could tell a good story.

The funeral service will be held on Saturday, May 14, 2022 at 10 a.m. at La Coopérative funéraire de l’Outaouais, 95 Cité des Jeunes Boulevard in Hull.  Family will receive condolences as of 9:15. The ceremony can be viewed live or later via the following link https://commemora.tv/fr/diffusions/49126

Nos sincères condoléances Claire. Il vas etre manqué. Vous étiez heureux et vous avez partagé beaucoup d'amour et de bonheur pendant votre vie ensemble. Nous garderons de beaux souvenir de notre amitié avec toi et Sly (croisière, visites aux chalet avec le groupe d'amis, party a votre maison a Noel l'an passé et votre dernière sortie au picnic de groupe a Merrickville) restera graver dans nos mémoires.
Sly était un travaillant sans limites avec une détermination de réussir. Qu'il repose en paix .
Les dernière années ont été difficile pour vous deux: la santé de Sly détériorait et malgré tes propres défis de santé tu t'es transformé en proche aidante. Dieu merci que tu étais toujours la pour lui jusqu'a son décès.
Il est maintenant en paix et sera ton ange gardien. Nous t'aimons Claire et on est la pour toi.

Claire Dufresne

Claire’s as Sly’s partner, your love, patience, caregiving skills over that last 3 yrs. to the end and your dedication to him for over 14 yrs had enabled Sly to live beyond his time. Sly’s love and trust in you encouraged him to enjoy life to the fullest with You. You & he travelled extensively over the years to Europe, the US and Canada. We enjoyed wonderful times with both of you.
Now Sly would want you to take care of yourself.

It was a privelege and a pleasure to service Sly and his businesses for over a quarter century. Sly was well respected in the business community due to the honesty and integrity he exemplified in the conduct of his business affairs and the pride of craft with which he performed his trade.

Thank you Sly.

Rest in peace.
