On Saturday January 15, 2022, Edward Paul Doucette, 81 passed away peacefully with his family by his side at Tabor Home in Morden, MB.
Edward was born February 17, 1940 in Monominto, MB to Emmanuel and Annie Doucette. He was one of seven children. Edward attended school in the Monominto area until grade nine at which time he left school to help on his parents’ farm. In 1969, he met his lifetime partner, Doreen and together they raised their four children. They eventually moved to the Morden area. Edward was a kindhearted and humble man who loved his family very much. He worked hard and was a good provider for his family. He enjoyed hobby farming, truck driving, playing cards and lawn darts, watching baseball and hockey and spending time with his family and friends enjoying good food and live music. He was a wonderful and caring partner, father, grandpa and great grandpa who always took time to help if someone was in need or just needed to chat. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him. Rest in peace Dad – we are going to miss you and your million-dollar smile!
Edward will be lovingly remembered by his lifetime partner, Doreen and their children, Carolyn (Robert), Michael, Gail (Nick), Raymond (special friend, Jerilynn) as well as his grandchildren, Jessica (Steve), Joshua, Bryanna, Jackson, Jason, Jefferson, Ravenna, Madeline and six great grandsons, Carmine, Kavik, Benci, Kiezer, Walker and Lucas.
