d?ENTREMONT, Réginald - Age 73, Meteghan River. It is with great sadness that the family of Réginald d?Entremont announces his passing on Wednesday, the 20th of April 2016 at home. He was born in Meteghan River, the son to the late Émile and Cécile (Lombard) d?Entremont. Reg was a graduate of Collège Ste-Anne (where he forged life-long friendships that were of great importance to him) and St. Mary?s University. He started his adult life as a draftsman at A.F. Theriault and Sons before entering the teaching profession. He taught for several years at Yarmouth Memorial High before returning home to teach at Clare District High. The life of an educator suited him well as he enjoyed teaching mathematics and physics to several generations of youth. After illness forced him into early retirement, Reg remained active within the community. He served as treasurer of the Festival Acadien de Clare for many years and enjoyed playing duplicate bridge. He spent countless hours helping those in the community who needed help in filling out governmental forms and represented over thirty individuals in appeals with the Canada Pension Plan. He was a firm believer that you should always help those that were in need whenever and in whatever capacity possible. Reg is survived by his daughter, Susan (Dave), Ottawa; sons, Craig, Meteghan River and Mark (Amy) Lake Charles, La; granddaughters, Amber d?Entremont,Toronto and Sarah d?Entremont, Lake Charles, La; sister Aline (James) Quinlan, Little Brook; brothers, Alyre (Gloria), Halifax and Léo (Lynda), Dartmouth; brother-in-law, Bruce (Diane) Jacquard, Arcadia and sister-in-law, Patsy Brennan, Sydney. Reg was pre-deceased by his loving wife Gloria and sister Émilita. As per his wishes, cremation has taken place and funeral services will be held Saturday, July 16th, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. in Sacred Heart Church Saulnierville. Burial at Sacred Heart Parish Cemetery. Donations may be made in Reg?s name to Le Transport de Clare or a charity of your choice.
