So sorry Lynn and Frank for your great loss,please accept our deepest condolences.

When I was a teenager I worked the summers at Scarf’s and Neil showed me how to get started in life, fixing machinery and driving trucks. I liked that he was always calm, understanding, making a great teacher. My condolences to the family.

Dear Lorraine and girls. How fitting that the last time I saw Neil he was chopping wood. Typical Neil. We are so sad to hear of his passing. I’m sure he is sitting at a table with my parents and Marg Demers right now playing cards and making everyone smile with his infectious laugh. You are often in our thoughts. Michael and Louise (Charron) Lynden

Frank and Lynne, Joe and Darlene and family, Please accept our heartfelt condolences on the loss of your dad, a true gentleman.

My condolences to Lorraine and family and to all the Davreux relatives. Mom (Alice) and I spent some happy hours in Larder Lake as we travelled eastward on a few vacations. Mom enjoyed spending time with relatives, even those a little more distantly related to her. Neil always checked my car before we were to continue on our journey so we knew things would not go wrong after he did his inspection. As we would continue our drive the next day, we always remarked on Neil’s great laugh which we enjoyed. Thank you Neil and Lorraine, for good memories.

My sincere condolences to Lorraine & family. Many memories of growing up on our farm, next to the farm that Neil & his many sister & brothers grew up on …. He was always laughing and had many stories to tell, I can well remember my mother & cousin Neil trading very funny stories ! He will be so missed ! Verly (née Moreau) Zébière

Jack and Barb and family wish to express our sympathies to each and everyone. Uncle Neil was a special kind of guy everyone loved to be around. His smile and happy go lucky personality will be treasured and kept close to all the hearts of those that new him. Cherish all your fondest memories. You all our in our thoughts and prayers

Lorraine and Family, So very sorry for all of you at this difficult time. Neil will be remembered for his wonderful sense of humor as he always had an answer for everything.

Lorraine and family. So sorry to hear of Neil’s passing. We missed you and Neil at the Seniors Club over the last year. We do remember him telling his jokes…

Neil IS a great friend. I first met him when I first joined the Fire Department in 1980 and we have remained so. Neil was always willing to fix anything I messed up….with a smile and the ever present whistle. Neil you will be missed. Your friend, Don Smith

I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

To Mrs. Davreau, Bev and Richard and all the Davreau family we extended our deepest sympathies. We never had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Davreau, but it is evident from reading the funeral obituary that he was a wonderful person and much loved by his family and his family was greatly loved by him. May your wonderful memories help to carry you through this difficult time.

Please accept our condolences on the loss of your husband, father and grandfather. I have enjoyed Jennifer’s pictures of times spent with her grandfather and know how much he will be missed. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dearest Lorraine, Bev and Richard and family, sending our sympathies on the passing of a loving man. He was a special Father and Grandfather to all of those girls, how blessed he was to be surrounded by so much love. A time to share all of the wonderful memories who have as a loving family.

A testimony to Neil is the emphasis that he (and Lorraine, of course) placed on strong family values, which garnered the love and admiration of his family. He will be greatly missed not only by his family, but by all who knew him. We are so fortunate to have had his influence on our family and in our lives. We loved his sense of humour. Thank you, Neil. Cousin Cam Davreux and Maili, and sons Ken and Phil.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time. He will be dearly missed.

Once again we are so sorry for the loss of Neil. Our fathers were friends for many years, and we enjoyed your company always. Now Neil and dad can be friends again in heaven. Our sincere condolences. Gen, Judy, Michael and families.

Lynn, Frank and family, I am so sorry for your loss. My sincere condolences.
