"A Bonjour from Jacques . . .

Bonjour Bob. I would like to thank you for easing my way through. You have been a help to me. I have slipped away from the shore. I have taken my little boat out to the deep water of my beloved lake for the last time. Others will carry on the different projects that I have started so the Society shall continue.

I haven’t seen Mempré yet so I assume that she is still at the bottom of Lake Memphremagog. Is she still there Bob? I never did find her nor did I ever find the remains of the American, Burns. Do you remember me asking you about his whereabouts? I do not believe that I shall find him here. If I do, you can be assured that I shall ask him about his physical remains.

I have had chest pains recently and had shortness of breath. I was going to see my doctor when this took me away. It was not unexpected but somewhat unwelcome. I am philosophical about my death. I put many years of living into my short lifetime and had the help of a wonderful wife, family, friends and of course Memphre. If I had to do it over again, I would perhaps start my diving sooner in life. I loved life and the people I met.

I am comfortable now. I have no pain. I would like to use your Web site to say good-bye to my wife, family, friends and people I knew and the many who knew of my projects and work. I send my affection to you all.

Jacques Boisvert"
