Ervin Lawrence Clement
CLEMENT, Ervin Lawrence – Peacefully, at the Glen Stor Dun Lodge on Tuesday, January 15, 2019 at the age of 94, with family by his side. Loving husband of the late Irene (Leger) Clément. Loving father of Paul (Joy), Suzanne Bray (late Michel), Rita Asselin (Yvon), Nicole Bazinet (Conrad), Maurice (Gisèle), Lucie Levesque (Michel) and Pierre (Renée). Cherished grandfather of 23, great-grandfather of 30 and great-great-grandfather of 1. Predeceased by his parents, Edmond and Adrienne (Bourdeau) Clement, his son Roger (Diane) and his sister Irene Godard (Conrad). Mr Clément, a recipient of France’s Medal of Honour, was a WWII D-Day Veteran, landing on Juno Beach at Bernières-sur-Mer as a member of the Sherbrooke Fusiliers Regiment – the 27th Armoured Regiment – that was part of the great invasion flotilla. As is typical of his generation, he sacrificed countless personal pleasures so that we have what we have today. He will always be a hero to his country, more so to his family, and will live on in the hearts of many as a great but humble man. Friends and family will be received at the M. John Sullivan Funeral Home, 341 Pitt Street (across from city hall) Cornwall on Monday from 2 – 4pm and 7 – 9pm and on Tuesday from 9:30-10:30am.
