Ches will be so missed by so many. Terry and I were treated in the North Bay Mall to his welcoming enthusiasm and of course a joke or two. RIP Ches. Thoughts and prayers for all the family.

CHES and Charlotte moved to North Bay, Ontario to retire.
CHES remained true to his Kirkland Lake roots and frequented the Northgate Mall in search of anyone from Kirkland Lake that he could talk to and tell them a joke.

Wow....we just saw and spoke with Ches on Nov 15th at the mall.
We would see and speak with him every time we went to North Bay. He loved to catch up on the gossip, what was happening in KL. Our last conversation was about the teardowns in Chaput.
So very sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

Without fail, every encounter with Mr. Belluz included the telling of a new joke(s). Having spent a lot of time with Teresa in Kirkland Lake, I was truly amazed that I never heard a repeat joke.
Mr. Belluz, you will be greatly missed. May you rest in peace.

We were very saddened to hear of the passing of Chez ,our deepest condolences goes out to the family. I have a lot of great memories of Chez from the time he took me under his wing when I was 15 years old and worked at KL machine. He picked me up every morning to make sure I got to work. Lol and our friendship continued for the rest of our lives. I loved when he house sat for Anna in KL and come to visit everyone at the shops. Always fun to see him. And now we live in the Bay, we used to see him at his office at the mall. Going to miss him big time ! ❤️ Kaye & Lynn Stabryla

VERY sad to hear about the recent passing away of 'CHES'! He was a fun loving character and he enjoyed chatting with friends and neighbours. I recall when 'CHES' started working at the KL Machine and Welding Corp. in Kirkland Lake when he was around 16 years old and was one of their best welders until he retired.
Over the past number of years, if you drove down Trout Lake Road in North Bay around noon every day, you would see him walking to North-Gate Mall to have a coffee and chat with friends along with telling them a new joke.
God Bless him and may he rest in peace.

I am sad to learn of Ches’s passing. So many grand memories of Ches from Kirkland Lake Machine & Welding days…he was a hard worker, a loyal and dedicated employee….and a character!
Deep condolences to all of you.
Charlotte, Shelley and Bill, Teresa, and Anna
So very sorry to hear this news.... I adored Ches. We shared a lot of laughs together at the St Jeans! He came and stayed with me in Toronto for a few days many years ago while here for medical appointments... it was memorable! Took him years to get over Charlotte moving him to North Bay... !? I attribute my "colourful lexicon" to him! Simply unforgettable.... Thanks for all the laughs Ches. Bev Nickoloff xo
