Claude Wilson 1947 - 2026

C’est avec une immense tristesse que nous vous annonçons le décès de Monsieur Claude Wilson, survenu le samedi 21 février, à l’âge de 78 ans, des suites d’un arrêt cardiaque.

Monsieur Wilson a consacré sa vie professionnelle à l’entreprise Wilson & Lafleur, au sein de laquelle il œuvrait depuis 1965. Président-directeur général au cours des 40 dernières années, il a marqué l’organisation par son leadership, son engagement indéfectible et sa vision, laissant une empreinte durable auprès de ses collègues, partenaires et amis.

La direction ainsi que l’ensemble du personnel tiennent à offrir leurs plus sincères condoléances à son épouse, Suzanne, à ses belles-filles, Magalie et Roxanne, ainsi qu’à tous les membres de sa famille. Nos pensées les accompagnent en ces moments difficiles.

Les informations concernant le service funéraire seront communiquées ici dès qu’elles seront connues.
