Robillard, Frank - It is with heavy hearts we announce Frank’s passing, on Saturday, November 16th while surrounded by the love of his family.
He was the very proud father of Cathy Hebert (Ray), David, and Paul (Susan) Robillard. Frank adored his grandchildren, Caitlin Hebert, Erin Hebert, Steven, Gregory and Evan Robillard. Frank was pre-deceased by his parents Frank Sr., his mother Fabienna, as well as his brother Fern and sister Muriel Quinn. He loved his siblings Jeannine (Dan) Corbeil, Rolly (Bob) Blondin, Bob (Jeanne) and Jim (Susan) Robillard. Many nieces, nephews, his God-daughter Nicki and his friend Betty were an important part of his life. Frank is also survived by a close extended group of friends he cherished as family. Anyone he crossed paths with became a friend.
From an early age Frank was a craftsman with a gift for building. He will be fondly remembered for his numerous stories, adventures, love of the outdoors and his projects around the city.
The family is receiving friends at Hillside Funeral Service, 362 Airport Road on Wednesday, November 20th, 2019 from 1:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. with a service at Hillside immediately following the visitation. A celebration of his life will follow the service.
The family wishes to thank the caring nurses and staff at the NBRHC and the many doctors he encountered on this journey.
