It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of André Bégin, on December 15, 2023, at the age of 85, in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. A Mass was celebrated followed by a reception on December 17 in Ixtapa, Jalisco, Mexico, in the presence of family and friends. André left an enduring legacy in the professional world as Vice-President International at CGI and Project Manager at DMR. His commitment and dedication inspired all those who had the privilege of working with him. André was an avid traveler, whose work led him to live in and discover many countries, from Uruguay to Mexico, Brazil to England, Australia to Bangkok, as well as the Canadian Maritime provinces from Prince Edward Island to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. His experiences have enriched his life and have brought lasting memories to Suzanne, his companion in life and travel, who has shared these wonderful adventures with him. Beyond his professional achievements, André was a kind, generous man with a big heart. He is survived by the love of his life, his wife, Suzanne Gaumond; his son, Bernard Bégin (Sylvie Ouellet); his two granddaughters, Eléonore and Félicia. He is also survived by his wife's children, Nathalie Girardin-Zepeda (Martin Viorato Zepeda) and her sons Hermès, Xaman and Maïko, and Pascale Girardin and her son Wolfe, who shared precious moments with him and witnessed his warm and loving presence. The loss of André Bégin leaves us with a deep sadness, but his memories and legacy will remain etched in our hearts. We honour an exceptional man who left an undeniable imprint on those who had the good fortune to know him. Donations: CUSM Heart Institute, Montreal QC.
