Paul E. Charbonneau,

1942 – 2020

With heavy hearts, the family announces that Paul passed away suddenly in the early hours of Tuesday, May 19, 2020; Paul Emile Charbonneau of Arnprior was 77. Beloved husband and best friend of Merilee (nee McLean). Dearly loved father of Marc Charbonneau (Johanna) of Brockville and Erin Charbonneau (Carlos Rios) of Arnprior and cherished “Grumpa” of Thomas, Amelia and Ryane Charbonneau. Dear brother of Richard “Ricky” (Peggy) of Ottawa and D’Arcy (Sue Ellen) of Georgia, USA. Lovingly remembered as “Crazy Uncle Paul” by the entire McLean clan. Paul was born with an incredible sense of humour. He brought light and laughter to any situation. If you were having a bad day, a simple visit with Paul could shift your energy and remind not to sweat the small things. Paul faced a recent diagnosis with the same courage and strength that he exemplified his entire life. His spirit will be remembered by the many who had the privilege to call him “friend”. Paul’s final care has been entrusted to the Pilon Family Funeral Home and Chapel Ltd., 50 John Street North, Arnprior.

To quote a longtime family friend, Al Majaury, Paul often said “Not So Worse”
