May 30, 1952 – May 19, 2025
It is with deep sadness that the family of Pierre Robert Bergeron announces his passing on May 19th, 2025, at the age of 72, surrounded by his family, in Prince George, British Columbia.
Pierre was predeceased by his beloved wife, Kerry Bergeron, in 2001, and by his parents, Gilbert and Bob Bergeron.
He is lovingly remembered by his sons: Jean Paul (Darcie), Denis, Marc (Jocelyn), and Daughter Samantha (Justin); his cherished grandchildren: Maximus, Paisley, Ellis, Felix, and Faye; and his three loving siblings: Louise, Denise, and Richard. Pierre will also be remembered by many extended family members throughout Quebec.
Pierre grew up in Powell River, BC, and moved to Prince George in 1974, where he spent the rest of his life. He began his career as an elementary school teacher, where he met his wife Kerry, at Hart Highway Elementary school while teaching grades 5 through 7. After retiring from teaching, Pierre found and pursued his true passion in home renovations, where his creativity and craftsmanship were deeply appreciated. Kerry and Pierre were married in1977, where they went on to create a beautiful life with their 4 children, spending summers together travelling across North America with a truck and trailer. Pierre and Kerry purchased lakefront property at Cluculz Lake in 1991, spending summers together building a beautiful cabin. Pierre carried on his renovations and house flipping business for many years, culminating in the construction of his own home on the beautiful Aberdeen Glenn Golf Course. Pierre had a lifelong passion for hockey and proudly played for the University of Victoria Vikes and the Prince George Mohawks. He continued playing recreationally well into his later years, often sharing the ice with or competing against his son Marc and son-in-law Justin.
Pierre found great joy in staying active at the gym, on the ice, or playing golf, as well as spending time with his family and enjoying peaceful summers at Cluculz Lake, filled with wonderful memories with his kids and grandchildren.
The Bergeron family would like to extend heartfelt thanks to all members of the ICU team, especially the nurses and physician, Dr. Lee, for their exceptional and compassionate care during Pierre’s final days.
Pierre will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by his children and extended family. He continues his journey, tenderly reunited with Kerry, the love of his life and kindred spirit.
