It is with cherished memories and broken hearts that we mourn the loss of our beloved Ronald Mahabir, loving husband of Gemma Eccles-Mahabir, father of Sherry Mahabir-St. Pierre (Tom), Lisa Mahabir-McAllister (Terry), and Lynda Mahabir (Frank); grandfather of Chris and Daniela St. Pierre, Aidan and Liam Perreault, and Jack McAllister; brother of Manick (Babsie) and Salick (Sumintra) (all deceased); brother-in-law of Marjorie Mullahoo (Errol, deceased), Barbara Tackoor (Angus, deceased), Knolly, Marilyn, Keith, Andy (Judy) and Vitra (deceased) Eccles; treasured by his many nieces, nephews, cousins and extended family, and a devoted friend to all who knew him. Born in Trinidad, West Indies, Ron came to Canada and settled in Chateauguay, Quebec where he quickly became a respected member of the community, and of the whole Chateauguay mosaic. He lived a blessed life, surrounded by his family and friends, his books and music, and his bountiful garden. Ron was an avid reader and scholar, never ceasing to expand his knowledge on a variety of topics throughout his life. He was an inspiring figure to all who knew him through his work as a dedicated minister, author and much-loved teacher at Howard S. Billings High School. He touched the lives of so many with his brilliant mind, kind and generous spirit and loving heart. Our memories of his beautiful existence and his bright smile will live on in our hearts forever.
