Obituary of Etienne Albert Delage

Please share a memory of Etienne to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Etienne Delage of Chatham, Ontario. 

He was born in Paris, France in 1940.  As a friend, parent, husband and horticulturist Etienne embraced life and his interests were diverse and far reaching - good food, wine, roses, history, singing, the outdoors. He operated Chatham Nursery for over 40 years. 

For 25 years he was a passionate member of the Chatham Cultural Choir. Etienne loved to laugh - often at his own expense.

Etienne was the devoted and loving husband to Christiane for almost 50 years, wonderful father to Bruno (Kelly) and cherished Papy to Finnegan.  He is preceded in death by his son, Bernard (1992) and his parents, Jacques and Agnes.  He is also survived by his brothers, Yves and Christian in France and by loving-in-laws, nieces, nephews and a host of long time friends.

He will be remembered for his kind heart and gentle soul. 

Friends and relatives may visit at the Funeral Home, 156 William St. S. Chatham (519-352-5120) on Sunday June 25, 2017 from 2 - 4 and 7 – 9 pm, where Vigil Prayers will be offered at 3 pm.  

A Funeral Mass will be celebrated on Monday June 26, 2017 at 10 am in St. Joseph's Church.

 Burial will be in St. Anthony's Cemetery.

The family would like to thank the staff of Riverview Gardens for their compassion and support. 

If desired, memorial donations may be made to The Spirit & Life Center, St. Joseph's Church & Chatham-Hospice Foundation or the charity of your choice.
