Bereaved by his remaining siblings, Laurette Sauve (late Fern), Gerard (Yollande) and Paulette Rivet (Jacques). Marcel moved to Sudbury and met the love of his life Gilberte, daughter of Philippe and Jeanne d’Arc Riopel (Gervais). Gilberte’s family quickly became some of his closest friends: Robert (Yollande), Georgette Lafreniere (late Conrad), late Richard (Rose), Madeleine Chrétien (Leon) and Claude. Together, they raised three loving children Carole (Denis Alain), Pierrette (Dave Schroeder) and Normand (Ginette Roy).

The joy continued with the gift of great-grandchildren: Keenan, Riley, Katie, Haiden, Isaac, Cameron, Mikko, Jonah and Jude. Marcel spent many years at his cottage in Lavigne where he built happy memories with his family and friends. Although his favorite pastime was spending time surrounded by his children and grandchildren, he also enjoyed hunting with the Lucky 9 and 12 Pack hunting clubs, wintering in Florida and travelling through North America and Europe.
