Obituary of Jean-Paul David Gravelle

In Loving Memory of Jean-Paul David Gravelle “Fitz”

With heavy hearts and joyful memories, we celebrate the life of Jean-Paul David Gravelle, affectionately known as Fitz, who passed away on August 21, 2024, at the North Bay Regional Health Centre. Jean-Paul was a beloved brother, friend, and an eternal source of laughter.

He is survived by a wonderful crew of siblings: Edgar (late Lucy), Raymond (Linda), Dennis, Louise (Phil) Marion, Jacques (Dawna), Jean-Guy (Christine), and Michel (Phil). He was predeceased by his brothers Norman and Rene, and his loving parents, Romeo and Yvonne.

Jean-Paul will be deeply missed by his extended family, including nieces, nephews, and a wide circle of friends

A kind heart and amazing sense of humour to those closest to him, Jean-Paul had a unique talent for turning life's challenges into comedic moments. Whether he was cracking jokes or sharing tales of his adventurous duck hunting and fishing escapades in his younger days, he brought joy to all who knew him. His zest for life was infectious, and he cherished the times spent partying with friends.

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the dedicated nurses and doctors at the North Bay Regional Health Centre CCU for their compassionate care during his final days.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.

In honour of Fitz’s vibrant spirit, donations can be made to the NBRHC Foundation, ensuring that his legacy of kindness and laughter continues to make a difference.
