Gaetan Bergevin
1962-2021
Un homme aimable, aimant, charmant et aidant nous a quitté le 5 août. Sa loyauté, son amour, sa bonne humeur et sa préoccupation pour ceux qu’il aimait étaient sans égal. Son conjoint, Michel Doiron, sa mère, Nicole Richer, sa sœur Sylvie et son beau-frère Michel Paré, et son frère Marc et sa belle-sœur Francine Chartrand seront pour toujours attristés par son départ. Son père, Claude Bergevin, l’a précédé dans la tombe. Ses nièces, Caroline, Karissa, Shania, Malika, et son neveu David manqueront leur tonton dans le profond de leur cœur. Sa belle-famille, les Doiron en Acadie, se rappelleront de lui avec beaucoup d’amour. Gaetan laisse également nombreux amis et collègues à Montréal, au Nouveau Brunswick, au Mexique, en Thaïlande et à Ottawa.
Gaetan aimait beaucoup voyager. Il a visité maints pays en Asie, en Europe et en Amérique centrale. Il ne pouvait résister à l’appel d’une bonne station balnéaire et au bleu de l’océan. Depuis quelques années, il fut adepte de culturisme et s’est créé des amitiés fortes au sein de cette communauté.
L’incinération a eu lieu. Un service privé pour sa famille aura lieu à Montréal. Pour ceux qui le souhaite, des dons à la Société canadienne du cancer seront appréciés.
A charming, loving, lovable and helping man has left us on August 5. His loyalty, love, good humour, and his attention to those he cared for were without bounds. His spouse, Michel Doiron, his mother, Nicole Richer, his sister Sylvie and brother-in-law Michel Paré, and his brother Marc and sister-in-law Francine Chartrand, will forever be saddened by his departure. He was pre-deceased by his father, Claude Bergevin. His nieces, Caroline, Karissa, Shania and Malika, as well as his nephew David, will remember him with enormous love in their hearts. His in-laws, the Doiron’s in Acadie, will miss him dearly. Gaetan also leaves behind numerous friends in Montreal, New Brunswick, Mexico, Thailand and Ottawa.
Gaetan loved to travel. He visited many countries in Asia, Europe, and central America. He could not resist the call of a good resort or the blue of the ocean. For the last few years, he practiced bodybuilding and established very strong friendships in this community.
Incineration has taken place and a private service for family will be held in Montreal. For those who wish to do so, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society will be appreciated.

I am so saddened to hear of Gaetan’s passing. It was such a pleasure working with him at IRCC, and running into him in the neighbourhood when he was on the way to the gym. He was always so warm and friendly. My sincere condolences to Michel and the rest of Gaetan’s family.

Since hearing of Gaetan’s passing, I have been so sad as the world lost someone so full of life, fun and laughter. It was always so nice to be walking by Gaetan’s desk and get such a warm welcome followed by such wonderful chats covering so many interesting topics. I will certainly miss those chats and all the support he gave me and many others over the years. My sincere sympathy to Michel and family.

Michel, my deepest sympathy, I know that your heart is broken. But trust that the wonderful love that you shared with Gaetan and the beautiful memories will help you through this difficult time. Gaetan was a very special person and I am pleased that I had the opportunity to work with him, even if for a short period of time. He was an exemplary public servant, dedicated to helping Canadians and alway honest. You are in my thoughts Michel.

Absolutely wonderful man and a real gentleman. I’m still in shock that he is departed this word. Rest in piece dear friend.
So sad to hear of his passing. Gaetan was a great colleague who was always full of fun, energy and made us laugh soo much. The one thing that stands out the most in my mind is remembering the special love you two shared Michel. My sincere sympathies to you Michel and all of the family.
