MEMBER’S STATEMENT ON condolences to the family of noel abel

Mahsi cho, Mr. Speaker. [English translation not provided.]

I'd like to pass my condolences to the family of Noel Abel, from Lutselk'e, who passed away just before lunch yesterday, February 11. Noel Abel was 84 years old and lived in Lutselk’e all his life. Noel Abel was one of 17 siblings and was the last living man of the family. I believe there is only one member of that family still alive, and that's Vicky Sanderson, also from Lutselk’e.

Noel had many, many relatives. I spoke to a couple of his nieces yesterday, and they tell me that Noel had 50 to 100 very close relatives, counting all his siblings’ children and so on. His nieces and nephews still have a few in-laws that are living well in Lutselk’e.

It’s with great sorrow that I pass my condolences on to the Abel family in Lutselk’e, and advise that funeral services for the late Noel Abel will be held this coming Saturday.
