André Coulombe
It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of André Coulombe on August 14, 2026, at the age of 68.
André, a big-hearted man who was deeply loved by all, leaves behind his beloved wife Shelley, his son Simon, his godson Jean-François (Stéphanie), as well as his grandnephew William and grandniece Olivia. He also leaves to mourn his entire family, relatives, and many friends who had the precious joy of sharing his life and who will remember him as a warm, radiant person who was always in good spirits.
The family will receive relatives and friends on September 19, 2026, starting at 1:30 p.m., at the Forêt de la Seconde Vie (835 Ch. de l’Achigan, Sainte-Sophie, Quebec, J5P 2P9). A commemorative ceremony will take place outdoors in a natural setting. For your comfort, we invite you to wear footwear suitable for natural terrain so that everyone may comfortably share in this moment of remembrance.
The family thanks you from the bottom of their hearts for your presence, support, and all the sweet memories you will share in his memory.
