Pierre Fernand Berube

I was saddened to read of Pierre's passing. I first met Pierre and Marilyn when Pierre's father resided at Streamway Villa. Soon everyone was friends with them both. Pierre's personality made sure of it. His outgoing nature , daily visits to the home to play cribbage and bring his beautiful golden retriever in for all to admire, became a regular thing. Marilyn and Pierre both spent time with other residents playing bridge and viewing the many pictures from their recent holidays. Pierre and I later would reconnect at the YMCA where I would hear of upcoming trips and family gatherings. His smile and contagious laugh will be sorely missed. Condolences to Marilyn, his children (who I never met but always heard wonderful things about) , and grandchildren. RIP Pierre

So sorry to hear about the passing of Pierre. He was a very good friend who I got to know from playing bridge. He will be fondly remembered.

Marilyn: It was with great sadness that we learned of Pierre's passing. We send you and your family our deepest condolences on your unbearable loss. Pierre had a wonderful sense of humour and we remember fondly playing bridge with you both. They were very good times. Please know you are in our thoughts. Virtual hugs. Ken and Sue

I was so shocked to hear of Pierre's death. My sincere condolences. He and I often chatted at Northumberland Photography Club. He was full of knowledge if I asked him but he didn't brag about it. We chatted about Europe and places we both enjoyed seeing. I can't believe he's gone. So sorry for your loss. He was a lovely man.

Was very saddened to hear of Pierre's passing this past week. He will always be fondly remembered by the Warden family as a dear friend and neighbour at Dickey Lake. Pierre was always there for us and helped us through difficult and happy times. Pierre's infectious laugh could be heard across the lake and made us laugh too. My deepest sympathy to Marilyn, Aileen, Michael and family. Love and prayers, Diane, Katie, Rob, Jenny and families

Very Sorry for your loss. What a lovely photo chosen. It shows much about your loved one. As a member of NPC I appreciate your husbands efforts & contributions to the club meetings. May happy memories bring you comfort as you go forward. We always keep a part of those we love close to our heart.

Although I didn't know him like many others did, I did get to meet him through the NPC. My sincere condolences to the whole family on your loss. He will be greatly missed.

Pierre will be deeply missed, such a great man (and unforgettable laugh). So many great memories of him from the lake, a wonderful neighbour who we were so fortunate to have. Deepest sympathies Marilyn, Aileen, Michael and family, you’re all in our hearts, thoughts and prayers.

My deepest condolences. I knew Pierre from the Photo Club. I will miss our chats.

Please accept my condolences. I knew Pierre originally from the Y and he was the one who told me about the photo club as well. He was a great person, always ready to chat. Tracey

Pierre was not only a valued member of the Northumberland Photography Club, but he had also joined our Cobourg Senior Photography Club as well. Some of our members belong to both local photography clubs. He will be missed. Bob Robertson

Oh my goodness. We sat together during photo club meetings and shared recipes and wine choices. I will miss him. Xx

We wish to express our heartfelt sadness at Pierre's passing. We remember his ever present smile and pleasing personality. A very talented photographer who was always willing to share his expertise with other members. He will be missed.

Sorry for you lost. Was talking to Pierre early February, he was wanting a copy of a I shot taken in Notre-Dame in Montreal. It was a shot he always liked, told me that many times. Again sorry for your lost.

Aileen, please accept my deepest condolences. I am praying for strength and comfort for you at this time.

Dear Aileen and Family, sending my deepest sympathies for your loss. May the days ahead be filled with peace and fond memories of your beloved father.

Dear Aileen and family. I'm so very sorry for your loss. I hope during these hard times you remember the laughter and joy of your family and all the very special memories of your dad over the years. Take care Lisa

Marilyn, we are so sorry to hear the news. To us Pierre seemed like a "hard shell" when we moved in but very quickly showed that he was a humorous, caring man who brought a light with him to every interaction. My favourite memory of him proving he was a "foodie" was knocking on our door with a bag of tomatoes from your garden and another bag of blueberries - with the hope that jam would make its way back to him! His passion and detail that went into caring for things around the house/yard and his love for your dog were evident to everyone in our neighbourhood. May you find peace in knowing that he is no longer fighting the battle and know that you have all of our help and support always. Warmest Thoughts - Derek, Erin, Hudson & Brennan Sawyer

To Aileen, your family and your mom, we offer our heartfelt sympathy. I feel as though I knew Pierre because of the many wonderful Stories Aileen shared with us. Keep his memory alive by remembering all the good times. Bea

Dear Marilyn, it’s with a heavy heart I heard of Pierre’s death. Such fun times we had at the cottage. I think of Pierre when I go into my dining room that he very capably built for Ron and I. A wonderful job. The dinners with our fun group were some to remember. I remember we teased Pierre after his third helping of lamb! He never lived it down. My thoughts go out to you and your family. May wonderful memories comfort you. Love Joan

My goodness, I was just in email conversations, with Pierre, my condolences to his family. I will truly miss our conversational banter. Till we meet again, my friend.

My condolences on your loss. I met Pierre through the Northumberland Photography Club and he was always so helpful to me helping with the setup and/or takedown of the equipment. Such a great guy, always ready to lend a hand or share a story. He will be missed. So sorry, Jeannie

We always loved your many photography and travel stories, we will miss you. Brendan & Sylvie Flynn.

I am so very sorry for your loss, my deepest condolences.

My friendship with Pierre began with our meeting at the local photography club. I looked forward to and enjoyed our many discussions about cameras and printing and his tireless enthusiasm for the hobby. I will not forget being invited to his home for dinner with Marilyn at a time when I had lost my partner and was very grateful for their compassion and support. I send my condolences to Marilyn and the family and feel our loss.

I am saddened to hear this news about Pierre. We often talked about our travels at Photography Club meetings and he was a great help to me when planning a trip to southern France. His smile and laughter will be missed.

Marilyn, I was both shocked and saddened to hear of Pierre's passing. He wasn't at bridge that often but when I saw him I knew I could expect a big smile and a good chuckle when I got to his table. So sorry. Brian

Marilyn, Aileen, and Mike, I met Pierre at the Northumberland Photography Club. Pierre was an active member at the club helping with workshops and monthly set up at our meetings. Our conversations centered around his love of travelling through Europe with Marilyn. He enjoyed doing his own planning prior to departure and driving a rented vehicle upon arriving . Pierre captured many great photos of his extended holidays. He will be sadly missed by his friends at the club. My sincere condolences to the family. Pierre Fernand Berube December 24, 1942 - March 18, 2021 Rest In Peace

Dear Marilyn and family, I was so sorry to hear about Pierre. He was a real gentleman and always had a smile for everyone. May his memory comfort you during this difficult time. Hugs, Patricia

Met Pierre 12 years ago when I joined the bridge club. He was always smiling and we joked back and forth and I always enjoyed coming to your table. He didn't play as often as some and took the game in a positive and most friendly way. But what I always commented on was his expertise making the coffee. I kidded him and always said that his coffee would put hair on my chest. He would walk by my table and whisper to me that the next pot coming off was his. I thanked him and headed up. Even when I met him in the parking lot and he wasn't playing I would jokingly ask him to come in and make the coffee. I was most shocked to hear of his passing and wish to pass on my sincerest condolences on your loss. He was truly a nice guy I am proud to have known. Ron

Marilyn, my condolences on the passing of your husband. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Moneen

I was so sorry to hear of Pierre’s passing Marilyn. He was a delightful man and so much fun to play against at the bridge table. Cheryl

Marilyn I am saddened and sorry for your loss. Pierre and I loved to tease each other at the Bridge table. He was great fun with an infectious laugh.

We're so sorry for your loss Marilyn, please know you're in our thoughts and prayers. Bill & Rita

We are so sorry to hear of the passing of Pierre. It’s been such a long shut down and it’s easy to loose touch with everyone. He was such a nice man. Marilyn, our thoughts and prayers are with you. Darlene and Don

Good bye for now. You will be missed!! May we meet again in the next life with hugs and wine! Rest in peace

Marilyn I'm so sorry for your loss. It was always a pleasure to see Pierre at bridge. He brightened up a room.

So sorry to hear of Pierre’s passing. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.
