In 1975 we bought G & C Grocery in Gimli, which we later sold. Through the years he worked at various mechanical shops, retiring from the R.M. of Gimli in 2002. In semi-retirement he drove the parts truck and did various jobs at Chudd's Chrysler in Gimli until the Friday prior to his passing. He was able to repair anything he put his mind to, not only as his work, but also as one of his greatest passions in life. He will be dearly missed by his family and many friends, especially, Kirbee. Funeral service will be held on Thursday, July 22 at 2:00 p.m. in the Gilbart Funeral Chapel in Gimli with Pastor Trudy Sluth officiating. Interment will follow at the Haga Cemetery, Arborg.

July 21, 2004
RAYMOND GEORGE ROUSSON With sorrow and sadness, our family announces that Ray passed away at his home suddenly and unexpectedly on Sunday, July 18, 2004. Ray is survived by his wife, Janet Rousson; son Rick Rousson (Holly) of The Pas; son Cecil Eger (Kameo) and grandson Kaemon of Winnipeg; daughter Tammy Eger and friend Ann Pegoraro of Sudbury; and son Ray Eger and grandson Braydyn of Winnipeg.

Ray will also be remembered by sister-in-law Irene Chabluk (Barry); his nieces, Sherry and Susan McCoy; brother-in-law Douglas (Vivian); and niece Katherine and nephew William; and many aunts, uncles and cousins from Quebec to British Columbia. Ray will be remembered by his friends, Joe Wiebe, Ray and Michele Eger, Bob and Madeleine Hennesey, and Rick Palmer for his love of the outdoors - camping, boating, RV travelling, and snowmobiling. People who were not lucky enough to really know Ray may of thought he was a little reserved and rough around the edges. However, friends and family who had the opportunity to share in his life knew different. Ray had a knack for electronics, computers and carpentry. If you had a computer problem, a gadget that did not work or a deck that required repair Ray was the first person you called. Ray worked for Water Survey Branch, Environment Canada for 35 years before retiring in 2002. During this time he never left a problem unsolved - even if he ended up in his underwear up to his neck in water. Over the past year he and Jan had the opportunity to live out their dream of travelling around the United States and Canada with dog Jay in their RV. He also had the opportunity to fish for halibut in Alaska, experience white water rafting on the Ottawa river, boat on the Colorado river, snowmobile in Yellowstone National Park, parasail in the Padre Islands, cruise the U.S. Virgin Islands, sightseeing on South Beach, and walking down Bourbon Street on New Year's Eve. A celebration of Ray's life will be held on Wednesday, July 21 at 7:00 p.m. in Kenora Community Funeral Home, 821 St. Clair St., Kenora, ON. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Ray's memory to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or a charity of your choice.
