Obituary of Jamie Peter Gregory Kirouac

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Jamie on Thursday, December 21, 2023, after a courageous battle against ALS. He fought every day with dignity, hope, love, and courage.

Cherished son of Yolande Kirouac and the late Raymond Kirouac. Dear brother of Linda Turgeon (Cam), Susie Fox (late Danny Fox), Daniel Kirouac, Michael (Stitch) Kirouac, late Claude Kirouac (Pauline), Gwen Vicieli (Renzo), Marc Kirouac (Jane), Steve Kirouac (Louise), and Therese (Terry) Kirouac (Rocky).

Jamie will be missed by his nieces and nephews; Jeff Pearson, Wendi Pearson, Sarah Kirouac, Trisha Kirouac (Pam), Michael Kirouac, Samantha Kirouac, Geoff Smith (Joanne), Ian Szagetti, Greg Arbuckle, Michael Kirouac, Brianne Kirouac, Stacey Carrusetta (Bruno), Jay Kirouac (Kristen), Warren Greenaway, Jade Oliver (Ryan). With a total of 17 great nieces and nephews (too many to name individually but loved and thought of always).

Jamie worked as a movie projectionist, with also a brief stint at the Shaw Festival. He had a great passion for art in many forms, such as pencil drawings, glass etching, wood working, soapstone carving – many of us named have pieces he created which will be treasured forever. He also loved working on his various cars and enjoyed many washing/waxing marathons with his brothers (especially Stitch).

Arrangements have been entrusted to Essentials Cremation and Burial Services. In accordance with Jamie’s wishes, cremation will take place and a graveside service will be held at a later date at Caistor Centre Cemetery where Jamie will be interred next to his dad.

Service Information

There are no upcoming public services scheduled or the service has occurred in the past.
