Richard
Despatie
Salon B at the Saint-Constant Funeral Complex
In the Lasaline Chapel.
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Mr. Richard Despatie, a resident of Saint-Constant, who passed away on November 7, 2026, at the age of 82. He was the son of the late Mr. Albini Despatie and the late Mrs. Alice Bergeron, and the beloved husband of Mrs. Micheline Fournier.
His passing leaves an immense void in the hearts of all those who had the privilege of knowing him and sharing precious moments by his side. Throughout the years, Richard created cherished memories that will continue to live on in the hearts of his loved ones. Although his absence will be deeply felt, the love he gave, the happy moments shared, and the meaningful bonds he formed will forever remain engraved in their hearts. For those we hold dear never truly leave us; they live on through the memories we cherish and the love they have passed on to us.
He leaves to mourn his beloved wife Micheline, his son Sylvain (Karine), his daughter France (Frédéric), and his cherished grandchildren Francis and Sébastien.
He also leaves behind his half-sister Martine, his brother-in-law René (Doris), his sister-in-law Jeannine, his nieces and nephews, as well as many other relatives and friends who will remember him with great affection.
Mr. Despatie has been entrusted to Poissant & Fils Funeral Home.
