So sorry to hear of your loss of Rene my deepest sympathies, thinking of your family

Monique and family;
Our very deepest sympathy at your loss of a kind, loving husband, father, grandfather and friend. We enjoyed Rene as our neighbour to the south when you lived in the country side, my mother’s neighbour when you lived on Eastern Ave, and as a fellow resident to Ray’s mom at the Villa. It seems that over the last many years our lives were destined to cross. We always enjoyed a talk with Rene. He had interesting stories to tell and memories to recall and share. He sure knew how to fix a vacuum cleaner too! He will be missed by many. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. God Bless.

Dear Monique and family,

our dearest condolences on the passing away of Rene. We only learned about it this week.

I remember we spoke last year over the phone when my mother Elona Vanbruwaene (a far niece) passed away in March 2021. On May 4 this year my father Michel Verbrugge passed away as well.

Profound greetings from family Verbrugge-Vanbruwaene out of Waregem (Belgium) and hope you’ll still be able to see the message.
