Camille always made time for his family. He was quick to smile and loved to tell stories. Throughout his life he constantly built things with his hands; a sawmill, a country store, family house, lobster fishing boats, furniture and even toys for his children and grandchildren. He had a keen sense of adventure; always willing to try something new. His many exploits included learning to ride motorcycles, snowmobiles and cross-country skiing and even dance lessons. Camille and Aline loved to travel; whether it was by boat, camper or jet, his bags were always packed.

Camille taught his children to laugh, be adventurous, tell a good story, be honest and sincere and most of all to love.
