It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Marcel at the Montfort Hospital  on August 31st at the age of 89. Beloved husband of Ghislaine, loving father of Charles (Teri MacDonald), Lucie (Rob Moran) and, proud grandfather to Tanner and Madison.

Marcel was a man of heart and commitment. He devoted much of his life to his business, which he built with passion, perseverance, and respect for his customers.

He touched many people with his smile and generosity.

Friends are invited to gather on Thursday September 25, 2025 at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church , 400 St. Laurent Blvd. Ottawa, ON., for Mass of Christian funeral at 1:30 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Montfort Foundation would be appreciated.

On se souvient d’Un homme attachant, humble, généreux, bienveillant envers tous, de très bonne compagnie, souriant devant la vie et un être loyal dans ses amitiés. Il a toujours démontré beaucoup de courage et de lucidité. Il va beaucoup nous manquer. Sincères condoléances à Ghislaine, Charles, Lucie, Rob, Teri et à ses petits-enfants Tanner et Madisson.

Une vie bien vécue, dont on peut dire qu’elle signe une réussite tant professionnelle que personnelle. Marcel était une présence assurée, avec Ghislaine, à tous les événements de la grande famille Lalonde, un prince, avec le mot aimable et courtois pour chacun. Il nous laisse un si beau souvenir! Repose en paix, Marcel, et veille bien sur Ghislaine et la famille. Nos profondes sympathies et nos tendres souvenirs.

Dearest Lucie, Rob, Madison, Ghislaine, as well as Charlie, Teri, and Tanner,

Despite the circumstances, as a family, you have never been far from my thoughts and prayers. You have had a particularly difficult road to travel over recent years as well as the events of this summer, caring for Marcel and Ghislaine, each other, balancing aging parents, with such an accomplished young daughter as well as the business....

In addition, you are also continuing to grieve the significant loss of a beloved friend and partner, John.

Now you have also lost the patriarch of your family.

I have such fond memories of hearing the first stories of how Lucie and Rob met, dropping in at Cadieux Interiors, meeting Marcel there, his welcoming grace, his charm, admiring not only his beautiful daughter, but the business that he had worked so hard to build. I remember how gracious all were when I was working on my Residential Decor Certificate at Algonquin - how often I dropped in to see how things 'were really done'. I remember Lucie's phenomal patience and help at designing the kitchen at 67.

I remember hosting your families at 67 for your wedding shower, the graciousness of Marcel and Ghislaine every time I met them, the Lalonde's and the loving family members whom are surrounding you now with love and support.

I continue to hold you up in thought and prayer.

Love always,
Susan

J’offre mes sincères condoléances à la famille Cadieux. Je pense particulièrement à Lucie. Votre père a osé réaliser son rêve d’établir une immense salle d’exposition qui au cours des années nous a permis de rêver. Il a fait preuve d’audace et de persévérance.
