FUNERAL DIRECTORIES i -i TREMBLAY, Mark 1953-2016 Mark died at peace and with typical curiosity, March 1, 2016, at the Royal Victoria Hospital, Montreal. For the past six months, he fought metastatic brain cancer with grace, wit, humour and his usual ferociousness. He fought the fight with the help of his children and his many friends. He is survived by his children, whom he loved profoundly, daughter Emily and son Lucas. Also left behind, his caretaker and former spouse, Kim, and brother Michael of Calgary.

Mark was predeceased by his parents, Mary and Emile Tremblay, and brother Robert. Mark was born in Timmins, Ontario where he attended O'Gorman High School and Timmins High and Vocational School. He went on to earn an English Degree at Carleton University, then a journalism career of 36 years that started at the Timmins Daily Press and up the ranks to the Calgary Herald and Montreal Gazette. He was a lover of the arts, music critic, literature buff, movie fanatic and sports aficionado. He was a considerable athlete.

He was a keen social observer and worried deeply about the planet. He was a poet and a wordsmith. He was at his best with glass of wine, embroiled in a heady argument. This was a man of enormous talent and pure smarts, sadly taken before his family and his many friends were at all ready say goodbye. Having said that, this was a wonderful life.

Following cremation. Mark will be interred in Hudson, QC, his home of 20 years. The family will receive visitors at the Anchorage at the Auberge Willow in Hudson, QC on Sunday. March 6. 2016 starting at 3:00 p.m.
