Steve (Yves) Joseph Wilfrid Provencher 1956 — 2022

Steve (Yves) Joseph Wilfrid Provencher

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Steve Provencher on Thursday, December 30, 2021 at 12:12pm. He passed away peacefully in the comfort of his own home, surrounded by his loving children. As hard as it is to say goodbye, it brings us peace knowing he is with Mom once again.

Steve was born on September 19, 1956 in Lachine, Quebec to Leopold and Jeanine Provencher. He married the love of his life Sheila Marie Cole on August 1, 1980, in Vanderhoof.

He was a man who worked hard to provide for his family and kids, never bemoaning life, always accepting how things were and enjoying the moment. These lessons were passed on to everyone that knew him. In his words “Life is about helping one another.” He truly leaves behind a legacy of love.

Left to cherish his memory, Steve is survived by his son Mark (Liz) Provencher, and daughters Dawn Provencher and Laura-Lise (Justin) Wong, and four beautiful grandchildren, Jaxson, Olivia, Justin and Hendrix.

Via Steve’s wishes, he has chosen to spend eternity with mom. In lieu of a funeral, he just asked everyone to raise a glass and celebrate.

    Your mom and dad are truly missed and I miss seeing them when they came over to Gary and Gloria’s. They both had a very good heart they were always willing to help whoever needed it. I am happy that they are together again and they wrap my arms around both of them.
