THAUVETTE: Louis David of Goderich

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Louis David Thauvette on October 25, 2026 at Alexandra Marine & General Hospital in his 78th year. Louis is now reunited with his beloved wife Mary Thauvette. He leaves behind many coffee buddies, and his friend Debbie Malone. 

He was known to travel to the square on his ‘Harley’, enjoying a cup of coffee with friends, or having a bite to eat at Steve & Mary’s or Cait’s Cafe. He was always known to have a smile on his face, and always stopped to talk to people in the community on his journey to wherever he was going. Louis was on a number of committees with Community Living, and he was known to volunteer for community events helping in every way he could. 

Cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Louis’ Life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations in Louis’ memory may be made to Community Living- Central Huron or Adopt- A- Pet Pet Rescue Lucknow.

Condolences to the family of Louis. I will miss and have many memories of Louis when I would do my daily winter walks and catch up with Louis and his good buddies at Cait’s Cafe,

Louis was sharp and always on top of his game when I would throw out trivia questions. Fun by all.

When I used to walk my dog I would always meet Louie and he would have a few words with me and than a few words with my dog. Always happy and with a smile on his face. We will miss seeing him up town. He was part of it.

Goderich lost a pillar in the community. Always a friendly word over the decades whenever visiting downtown.

Remembered always.

Condolence from Mary Lamb on October 29th, 2026 8:22 PM

I was saddened to hear of Louis’ passing. I have known Louis since he moved to Goderich in the late 1970s. Over the years, it was a pleasure to witness the many ways Louis enriched his life and the lives of those around him. From building a loving marriage and meaningful relationships to maintaining lasting friendships and becoming a valued member of our community. He will be fondly remembered.
