BERGERON, Blaine Edward Michael BERGERON, Blaine Edward Michael - With deepest sorrow we announce the sudden passing of our dearest Blaine on Tuesday, January 2nd, 2007 at the young age of 34 years. Blaine was born in Sudbury. He moved to Timmins in 2003. A well respected Zellers Manager having 17 years service, he won the Walter P. Zellers award 4 times. His work ethic inspired all who knew him. A proud Canadian, Blaine pursued worthy causes in his community and charity efforts in support of Cystic Fibrosis. He was the first to acknowledge and appreciate the goodness in people and empowered others, especially his employees, to excel to their potential. The consummate sports enthusiast, Blaine was the most loyal fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs, Seattle Seahawks and Manchester United. There will be less divets on tee boxes in the coming years in absence of this avid golfer. In his spare time, Blaine experimented with gourmet cooking and meals that could make Emeril envious. He was ready to make a warm home for one lucky golden retriever puppy. Blaine was a real "people person" who embraced life and lived it to the fullest. His family will forever be grateful to Blaine for his explosive and contagious laugh, coined phrases, creative nicknames and jovial spirit. He had an infectious sense of humour. Thank you for your gentle, generous spirit, quickness to help and support. Your tender heart felt all things intensely and loved so deeply. The light of Blaine's life will continue to guide and encourage us always. We will love you eternally. You will be sadly missed but never forgotten. Left to mourn his beloved memory are his family.
