Eva Piche
March 27, 1926 – December 8, 2020It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of our mother Eva on Tuesday, December 8, 2020 at the age of 94 years with her sons by her side. Beloved mother of Kenneth (Joyce), Robert (Bernice) and Marty (Alma). Cherished Grandmother to Marc, Andrea (Ted), Kim and Sheri (Landon). A very special Great Grandma to Matthew, Lauren, Devin, Danika, Kalev, Kristjan and Andren. A special mother-in-law to Rejean Carreau.Eva was predeceased by her husband, Alton Piche, her daughter, Joanne Carreau, her parents, Martin and Anna Panik, and her sister, Anna Chaplin and her brother-in-law, Norman Chaplin.
Mom arrived in Canada from Javornik, Czechoslovakia in 1933 at the age of seven. She attended elementary school and KLCVI in Kirkland Lake before working for the government in Ottawa to obtain her grade 12 equivalency. After working one more year in the Capital, she returned home to marry our dad. When Dad passed suddenly in 1968, Mom re-entered the work force accepting a secretarial position at KLCVI in the Student Services department for Mr. Doug Cooper. She loved it so much that she remained there for 18 years until her retirement.
Mom lived a selfless life helping and loving her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren until her death. “Nanny” will be remembered and cherished forever.
The family would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation to Dr. Kurki, Betty Smallwood and the staff of the Kirkland and District Hospital who treated Mom with exemplary care and compassion.

The Piche Family It was with deep sorrow to learn of the passing of Eva. She will ever be remembered as a WONDERFUL LADY. When I joined the Student Services department I soon realized that she was an essential member of our department. Students would come to the department just to see Mrs. Piche. The love, comfort and support they received from her was truly cherished. Her being a part of KLCVI helped to make it the best school ever. My family and I send our sincere condolences to the Piche Family.

Ralph Doner, March 1, 2021

To the Piche family. We are sorry to hear of the passing of your mother, grandmother and great grandmother. I remember working with Eva , she was such a good helper to us in the student service department at KLCVI. Eva was always willing and capable of handling the extra paper work for us to prepare for activities such as grade 8 orientation, parent open house, and University/College visitations. Eva also worked extremely hard during student time table conflicts, and during University/College application time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during these difficult time.

I am saddened to hear of Mrs. Piche’s passing. I have fond memories of terrorizing her in the guidance office in High school and her only laughing at me, and then later in life, becoming best friends with Marty. The family she raised are second to none; the nicest people you will ever meet, and are absolutely a true reflection of herself. Rest in peace Mrs P. God bless all of the family, miss you guys Kevin

Elizabeth Arbour, March 1, 2021

As a child, I have such fond memories of stopping in to see my dad (Doug Cooper, I am the middle of his 3 children) in the guidance office. Mrs. Piche was always so genuinely happy to see us and ask us what we were up to. (I also remember her giving us her chair on wheels to go out in the hall and push each other down the wheelchair ramp in it! She often giggled at that!) She was such a lovely, pleasant person and I know that my dad so enjoyed , trusted and valued working with her all of those years. She is a lovely memory for the Cooper clan and know that she will be missed be all of her family. Our condolences.

Liana Cooper, March 1, 2021

Al Diane & Abby Charbonneau, March 1, 2021

Mrs. Piche (I would never call her Eva) was like a second mom to me when we lived next door to her on Hudson Bay Ave. Beans and wieners for Saturday lunch when we came back from the playground. Bandaids when we had cuts. And she obviously impacted hundreds of lives through her work at KLCVI. What a wonderful, productive, loving life. I may not have seen her for decades, but I will never forget her.

LEE BALLANTYNE, March 1, 2021

So very sorry to hear of Eva’s passing. We became good friends during the days when we both lived on Third St. We met up usually after work on Fridays for a dinner at the old Princess restaurant.
