Raymond Clermont

Raymond Victor Clermont

It is with profound sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our angel, Raymond, in hospital on July 8th, 2015. Survived by the love of his life, his wife Lois (Ryan) of 48 years, his treasured sons Peter (and cherished daughter-in-law Jennifer) of Burlington and André of Ottawa. Proud and loving Grandpa of Sydney, Kate, and Brie Clermont. Youngest son of William Clermont and Delima (Gauthier). Dear brother of Marie-Jeanne Clermont (late Roger) and predeceased by siblings Roy (late Aline), Leo (late Grace), Fred (late Terry), and Lillie (late Edgar). Ray will be sadly missed by the Clermont and Ryan families, including many nieces and nephews, and his dear friends. Since retirement from the public service, Ray enjoyed playing golf and bridge, creating many stained glass works of art, and spending many winters with his wonderful friends at his beloved villa in Florida. The family extends special thanks to Dr. Haddad and the wonderful nurses at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute for their constant care and support. A memorial mass will be held on Saturday, July 18th, 2015, at Holy Spirit Catholic Parish, 1489 Shea Rd., Stittsville, at 10 a.m. Guests are welcome to arrive between 9 and 10 a.m. to offer condolences to Ray's family. A reception will follow at Irish Hills Golf and Country Club, 3248 Carp Rd., Carp. In lieu of flowers, for those wishing, a donation to the University of Ottawa Heart Institute would be appreciated.
