Mike Lamoureux | 1952-2020

May 7, 2020

 

It is with great heartache that we say good-bye to a work colleague, a friend, and a brother. Mike was more than just an employee at Electra Sign he was a part of the family here. Mike had been with us for over 20 years, but those years seemed to have passed all too quickly as of late. This past year has been a struggle for Mike and his family as he fought a hard fight against cancer in an effort to live a much longer life then he was sadly dealt. Mike's full intention was to win this battle and eventually return to work and more importantly be there for his wife and son in his upcoming retirement years. 

We all will remember Mike very fondly. He was not only the consummate employee who always showed up for work on time each day without fail, but he also was a true craftsman. His attention to detail was second to none no matter the size or intricacy of the project he was working on. Mike could truly build anything that was thrown at him and you could trust it would turn out flawless every time. Over Mikes 20 plus years working at Electra Sign he created too many signs to count. It would be impossible to drive anywhere across Canada and not see a piece of Mikes's hard work and craftsmanship. 

Aside from his work, we will miss the daily exchanges and conversations with Mike the most. He was an avid sports fan and enjoyed talking vigorously about the latest current events during our breaks while sipping one of his many Tim Hortons coffees he enjoyed so much during the workday. Anytime we see someone drinking a Tims coffee, we all undoubtedly think of Mike and the many conversations and memories we shared over the years. 

Mike, we will miss you very much. Our support and hearts go out to your wife and family.
