JOSAPHAT LE NÉAL 1913-2002 Paisiblement, le vendredi 31 mai, au centre de santé Riverview, est décédé Josaphat Le Néal à l'âge de 89 ans. Il laisse dans le deuil son épouse bien-aimée de 56 ans, Annette (née Bosc), trois enfants, Carole (Jean-Claude Farge), Gilbert (Betty Scott) et Jocelyne (Richard Fukasawa), deux petits-enfants, Philippe et Robert Le Néal, un frère, Yves (Marie-Rose Deshayes), ainsi que de nombreux beaux-frères, belles-sœurs, neveux, nièces, petits-neveux et petites-nièces. Le défunt a été précédé dans la tombe par sa mère, Marie-Josèphe (née Robert) en 1927, son père Joseph en 1966, ses deux sœurs Marie-Josèphe en 1901 et Joséphine (Jean-Baptiste Deroche) en 1939, et six frères : Raymond en 1922, Alphonse en 1923, Pierre en 1936, Joseph (Joan Schroh) en 1975, Jean (Thérèse Pelé) en 1998 et Augustin (Florence Langham) en 1999. Josaphat est né le 14 avril 1913 à Ste Amélie, Manitoba, où ses parents s'installèrent en 1909, quatre ans après avoir émigré de la Bretagne. La famille déménagea à St Claude en 1919, où elle avait passé quatre ans en arrivant au Canada, puis s'établit sur une terre à Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes en 1922. Josaphat s'engagea comme ouvrier dans les fermes des environs jusqu'à ce que la crise des années 30 l'incite à chercher fortune ailleurs. Ainsi, entre 1935 et 1942, il a successivement été employé comme infirmier dans un hôpital de Sudbury, comme opérateur de foreuse à diamant en Abitibi et à Kirkland Lake et comme bûcheron dans la région de Beardmore, en Ontario, pendant la construction de la route trans-canadienne. Il a également travaillé dans des silos-élévateurs à Port Arthur (Thunder Bay) et participé à la construction d'aérogares à Weyburn et à Estevan, en Saskatchewan. Revenu à Lourdes en 1942, Josaphat travailla pour quelques agriculteurs, y compris Rémy Bosc, dont il épousa la fille Annette le 30 juillet 1946. Peu après son retour, il acheta un garage et une entreprise de transport routier, le transfert de Lourdes, en partenariat avec son beau-frère Jean-Baptiste Deroche. En 1949, il décida de se lancer à son propre compte. D'abord détaillant de machines agricoles Oliver, il a ensuite obtenu une agence de Motor Sales, le fabricant des voitures Morris, puis fit construire un garage en 1953 et devint distributeur des produits pétroliers North Star, maintenant commercialisés sous la marque Shell. En 1957, il obtint une concession de General Motors pour les automobiles Pontiac-Buick et les camions GMC. Ayant vendu son garage en 1974, il passa les 16 premières années de sa retraite à Lourdes, où il partagea son temps entre la pêche, le jardin et les rencontres avec ses copains au Capricorne. Josaphat et Annette s'établirent à St Vital en 1990 après qu'il ait subi un accident vasculaire cérébral l'année précédente. Il a été atteint d'un cancer de l'estomac au printemps de 2002. Josaphat a toujours été très actif dans la communauté. Il a notamment été président du conseil du village de Lourdes avant son incorporation et a mené à exécution le projet de son ami Marcel Boulic, ancien membre de l'Assemblée législative manitobaine, de construire un foyer à Lourdes, le Foyer Notre-Dame. Josaphat avait la bosse du commerce, mais son succès en affaires tient également à une énergie quasi inépuisable, une très grande éthique du travail, un caractère sociable, une intelligence vive et une bonne dose de débrouillardise. Taquin et doté d'un sens de l'humour bien à lui, il était très attachant et affectionnait particulièrement les rencontres de famille. La famille tient à remercier les responsables du programme de soins du jour du YM/YWCA de St Vital, auquel Josaphat a participé pendant 11 ans, de même que l'équipe de soins palliatifs à domicile et le personnel du centre Riverview. Les prières auront lieu en l'église St Eugène, située au 1007, chemin St. Mary's, le lundi 3 juin à 19 h 30, et les funérailles seront célébrées par l'abbé Marcel Toupin en l'église catholique de Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes le mardi 4 juin à 14 h, suivies de l'inhumation au cimetière paroissiale. En lieu et place de fleurs, on peut faire un don à la société manitobaine du cancer ou à la fondation manitobaine des maladies du cœur. Les arrangements funéraires ont été confiés au salon mortuaire Adam de Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes. Contre l'angoisse de la mort il faut dresser le barrage de la vie, il faut s'ouvrir à l'infinie beauté du monde. Il faut se fondre dans le mystère du ciel étoilé. Il faut devenir partie de ce grand tout en perpétuel mouvement, partie de l'univers vivant. (Martin Gray, Les pensées de notre vie) JOSAPHAT LE NÉAL 1913-2002 Peacefully, on Friday, May 31, at the Riverview Health Centre, Josaphat Le Néal passed away at the age of 89. He will be fondly remembered by his loving wife of 56 years, Annette (née Bosc), three children, Carole (Jean-Claude Farge), Gilbert (Betty Scott) and Jocelyne (Richard Fukasawa), two grand-children, Philippe and Robert Le Néal, one brother, Yves (Marie-Rose Deshayes), as well as numerous brothers- and sisters-in-law, nephews, nieces, great-nephews and great-nieces. He was predeceased by his mother Marie-Josèphe (née Robert) in 1927, his father Joseph in 1966, his two sisters Marie-Josèphe in 1901 and Joséphine (Jean-Baptiste Deroche) in 1939, and six brothers: Raymond in 1922, Alphonse in 1923, Pierre in 1936, Joseph (Joan Schroh) in 1975, Jean (Thérèse Pelé) in 1998 and Augustin (Florence Langham) in 1999. Josaphat was born on April 14, 1913 in Ste. Amélie, Manitoba, where his parents settled in 1909, four years after having emigrated from Brittany. In 1919, the family moved to St. Claude, where they had spent four years upon arriving in Canada, then took up residence on a farm in Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes in 1922. Joe hired himself out on several local farms until the Great Depression prompted him to seek employment outside the province. Between 1935 and 1942, he successively worked as an orderly in a Sudbury hospital, a diamond driller in Kirkland Lake and the Abitibi region of Quebec, part of a crew clearing land for the construction of the TransCanada highway around Beardmore, Ontario, and in grain elevators in Port Arthur (Thunder Bay). He also participated in the construction of airport facilities in Weyburn and Estevan, Saskatchewan. Returning to Notre-Dame in 1942, Joe again did a stint as a farm laborer. One of his employers was Rémy Bosc, whose daughter Annette he married on July 30, 1946. Shortly after his return to Manitoba, he went into business with his brother-in-law Jean-Baptiste Deroche, operating a garage and running the Notre-Dame transfer. In 1949, he decided to go it alone. He established an Oliver farm machinery dealership, became a retailer of Morris cars, then built his own garage in 1953 and also became a distributor of North Star petroleum products, now marketed by Shell. In 1957, he opened a GM dealership, selling the Pontiac-Buick line of cars as well as GMC trucks. Joe sold his garage in 1974 and spent the first 16 years of his retirement in Notre-Dame, where he divided his time between fishing, gardening and catching up on the news with his friends at the Capricorne café. Joe suffered a stroke in 1989 and moved to St. Vital with Annette in 1990. He was diagnosed with stomach cancer in the spring of 2002. Always very active in the community, Joe served as president of the Town Board before Notre-Dame was incorporated and carried out the project of his friend and former MLA Marcel Boulic to build a senior citizens home in Notre-Dame. A born businessman, Joe also owed his success to his boundless energy, strong work ethic, sociable character, resourcefulness and sharp intelligence. With his own special brand of humor, he was very endearing, loved to tease and particularly enjoyed family gatherings. The family would like to thank those in charge of the seniors' day care program at the St. Vital YM/YWCA, which Joe attended for 11 years, as well as the palliative home care workers and the staff at the Riverview Health Centre. Prayers will take place at the St. Eugène Church, 1007 St Mary's Road, on Monday, June 3 at 7:30 p.m. Funeral service will be held in the Notre-Dame Catholic Church on Tuesday, June 4 at 2 p.m., with Father Marcel Toupin officiating, followed by internment at the local cemetery.

Marcel a grandi à Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes et c'est à l'âge de 11 ans qu'il perdit sa mère. Jeune homme, il entreprit de conduire le transfert avant de commencer à travailler dans l'entreprise familiale, Notre Dame Motors, avec son père, jusqu'à la mort de ce dernier, où il en devint propriétaire. Avec son épouse Lorraine, il éleva une nombreuse famille et bâtit son entreprise pour la transmettre à ses fils à sa retraite. Au village, il a également laissé sa marque; conseiller au premier conseil du village, au conseil du manoir et celui de l'hôpital, premier chef de la brigade à feu, et Chevalier de Colomb, son dévouement à sa communauté se fit connaître. Il fut un père et un grand-père exceptionnel et su transmettre à ses enfants et à ses petits-enfants les valeurs de l'unité familiale, du travail et de l'amour. Il aimait être entouré de sa famille et sera toujours pour elle son ancre. Sa présence, sa force et son bon sens d'humour lui manqueront beaucoup. Incinération aura eu lieu. Des prières seront récitées à la chapelle funéraire Adam le mardi 7 mai 2002 à 20 h. Le service religieux aura lieu le mercredi 8 mai 2002 à 14 h à l'église catholique de Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes.
