Sincères condoléances à la famille et aux amis. Gilles a toujours été un gentlemen pour mon épouse Lyne et mes enfants Marie-Christine et Marc-Antoine, et un modèle pour moi. Merveilleux souvenirs de l'été 1982 où Gilles et sa famille m'ont accueilli à Victoria. Daniel Boucher Sincere condolescence to family and friends. Gilles was always a gentlemen for my wife Lyne and my children Marie-Christine and Marc-Antoine, and an inspiration for me. Very nice memory from summer 1982 when Gilles and his family welcomed me.

I have so many fond memories of time spent in the Olivier home in Gordon Head. Giles was a lovely man, great sense of humour. Nelson and I are so sorry he has left us. Eva, love to you and your family.

We'll really miss Gilles. He was a true gentleman and a raconteur who enjoyed life to the fullest. We always looked forward to our family celebrations. Eva and Gilles had us all spellbound with their stories of travel and adventure across Canada and the U.S. and the funny stories of their parties. When Gilles was telling his tales, all eyes and ears were on him, and we always came away a little smarter and a little happier.

I remember being at Edmund's birthday dinner at their place several years ago. The light needed adjusting, so in one sweep, he removed his oxygen tube, stood up suddenly on his chair and fixed the problem much to the distress of Francis who was sitting right there, willing to do it himself. I also know he loved helping his grandchildren by giving them rides around town.

Dear Eva, Michael and Francis. Carole and I were saddened to hear about the sudden departure of Gilles for a better life. The loss of an husband and a father is a turning point. Cherish the moments you had with Gilles. We will miss him, may you hold dearly the memories of your time together. Unfortunately, we are unable to travel and will not make calling hours or the funeral but please know that our thoughts and prayers are with Eva and Gilles’ family. Carole & Jacques Olivier Québec City November 9, 2019 Chers Eva, Michael et Francis, Carole et moi sommes tristes du soudain départ de Gilles pour une vie meilleure. La perte d’un mari, d’un père marquera vos vies. La mémoire des moments que vous avez vécus avec Gilles restera gravé dans vos cœurs. Il nous manquera à toutes et à tous, mais les bons souvenirs sont impérissables. Nous ne sommes plus capables de voyager et ne pourrons pas assister ni aux condoléances ni aux funérailles. Soyez assurés que nos pensées et nos prières vous accompagnent. Carole & Jacques Olivier Ville de Québec, 9 novembre 2019

So sorry to hear of Gilles' passing. We missed them when they moved to Windsor. First met Gilles when he came to the Victoria Processing Plant as Maintenance Manager. At that time I was the secretary to the Plant Manager and our offices were across the hall from each other. Those were the good old days! Our deepest sympathy to Eva and the boys and their families.
