Last Post: Reg.#19819, Hugh (J.H.A.R.) Fortin

It is with heavy heart and sadness that we announce the passing of Hugues on November 23, 2010 at the age of 72.

Beloved husband of Laurette. Cherished father of Marc, Ron and Lynda. Loving grandfather of Jean-Francois, Roch, Jean-Luc and Valerie. He will also be missed by many nephews, nieces, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, cousins and friends.

For over 39 years, Hugh served proudly as a member of the RCMP and CSIS. He was stationed in Saskatchewan, Montreal and Ottawa. He was an avid golfer, an outdoors person and he enjoyed the wintering in Florida for many years.

A celebration of Hugh's life will be held at Beechwood National Memorial Centre, 280 Beechwood ave, Ottawa on Friday December 3, 2010 at 11 a.m. In memory of Hugh, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society would be appreciated. Special thanks to the nursing staff of St-Vincent Hospital and to Dr. Crabtree for the excellent care given to Hugh.

Mrs. Fortin would welcome the presence of the Veterans Association. Visitation will be just prior to service. There will be internment following the memorial service and the family would appreciate the presence of veterans at the grave site. The pall, boots, stetson and gloves will be provided for the Beechwood Service.
