In loving memory of Earl Charles Vilneff who was born on March 11, 1958 and passed away suddenly on Sunday, November 29, 2020.Loving son of George and Mercelene Vilneff. Earl leaves behind his sister, Catharine (Michael) McNamara, his niece Jody (Sam) Castleman and their children: Brody, Emma, and Morgan. He will always be remembered by his good friends Janice, George and Jeannie, and Bruce and Joyce. He will be dearly missed by many close friends and his colleagues at Dunn Paper in Thorold.
Earl’s legacy leaves us remembering him for his love of cars, his talent as a craftsman and his unique eye for collections. There is comfort in knowing that he will be reunited with his dear mother and will rest where he requested to be at Pleasantview Memorial Gardens Cemetery.

We are deeply saddened by the loss of our co worker Earl. He will always be remembered by us. He was not just a mere colleague for us but also a very dear friend for many.
Earl you will be missed, Rest east my friend
I am truly heartbroken at Earl’s sudden passing,he was always there to lend a hand if you asked and to poke a little fun who was a harder worker at the paper mill,Earl was one of the first guys I met at the mill 35 years ago and he was a friend ever since,I was lucky enough to have Earl allow me to store my car in his garage with all the American classics there was this one British car, he would dig me about that but he would admit grudgingly that he kind of liked my car,I will miss my friend greatly and I hope he is at peace
So sad to hear. Earl was a work mate and friend. He will be missed. Steve Zeliznak and family
