Peter Girard

William “Peter” Girard of Erieau passed away on Wednesday October 6, 2010. Pete was born 68 years ago to his late parents Edward “Peter” and Mary Girard and spent much of his life as a commercial fisherman. One night on a blind date at the Tilton Hilton in Erieau Pete met his lifelong partner Barbara (Smith) and they began a life together that would have reached forty years on November 10. Pete and Barb are the proud parents of Chrystal Girard of Erieau and Andy Girard who predeceased his mom and dad in his first year. Pete will be missed by his brother John Girard and by his sister Betty Ann & Larry Collins all of Erieau. Blenheim Community Funeral Home entrusted with arrangements. In keeping with Pete’s wishes, cremation has taken place. A graveside service will be held at Evergreen Cemetery, Blenheim on Wednesday November 10, 2010 at 2:00 p.m. where Pete will be interred with his Mom. Pete was proud to be a part of Erieau. It would have been an honour to him if friends wishing to make a memorial donation would consider the Erieau Firefighter’s Association or St. Paul’s Anglican Church.
