OBITUARY: Ronald BIRON (1940-2022)

It is with great sadness that we inform you of the passing of Ronald Biron. Ronald passed away on February 13 at the age of 81. Son of Gaudias Biron and Robéa Boucher, he grew up on the family farm in Saint-Agapit, Quebec with his 11 siblings. His strong entrepreneurship skills led to various successful careers: insurance broker, business owner, first individual member of the Montreal Stock Exchange, and more recently rubber factory owner and manager. Ronald loved his family. Most will remember him as an intelligent man who enjoyed a good joke and a friendly game of cards.

He leaves in mourning his common law spouse Louise Gagné; his daughter Chantal and sons Ghislain and Maxime; his grandchildren Mikko, Mia and Alexis; as well as siblings, nieces, nephews and countless friends.
