I am so sorry for the loss of these beautiful people. I met Gilles and Leah in the 1990's at St Paul's where we shared the social justice work of the Fire in the Rose program. I continued to connect with them through Gilles' work. I would see them occasionally over the years (at my nephew Phil MacLellan's wedding, as a neighbor of Vance Glover). I am sorry to have lost touch with them. I am sure the family has many wonderful memories. They continue to hold a spot in my hear. Brenda Picard (ED PEI Human Rights Commission)

To the family , I extend my deep sympathy. I knew them through the Spirituality Center in Charlottetown at Mount St Mary's. We did the Ignation Spiritual Exercises together.
They were each such wonderful human beings and as a couple they were dynamite! They loved deeply and gave freely, they will be missed!
Blessings,
Donna Cawley

.. I imagine there are many more beautiful heartfelt words. I am happy they are remembered for who they are.. not only for what they did. A caring, compassionate, faith-filled couple working together with Jesus through the years acting and teaching and forming others for justice and righteousness for all creation.... people and ecology. Loved, admired as formators and friends, we continue their work. May we have the same fire in our hearts and actions building God's kingdom.

Gilles Michaud a été pour moi un grand modèle du don de soi et du dévouement au service de Dieu. Sa mission auprès de la CVX d'Haïti, il l'a réalisée, conjointement à Léa , avec un coeur d'apôtre et de guide spirituel qui ouvre le chemin au Christ et lui laisse la place.
Que Dieu leur donne la joie des serviteurs.
Un sincère merci à vous leur famille, les enfants et les petits enfants pour avoir "partagé " vos parents avec l'Église et le monde.
Que Dieu vous accorde le centuple de ce que vous lui avez donné et qu'Il vous bénisse abondamment.

Gilles et Leah ont été proches de notre communauté CVX et de plusieurs de nos membres. Ils ont participé à notre congrès national de 2010. Ils ont été à l'initiative de plusieurs missions communes avec la CLC au Canada, en particulier la formation de la communauté pré-CVX en Haïti. Ils resteront pour nous une incomparable source d'inspiration.
Seigneur, nous te rendons grâce pour la vie de ta servante Leah et de ton serviteur Gilles. Puisqu'ils ont été fidèles à accomplir ta volonté, accueille-les ensemble dans ton amour, veille sur leur famille ainsi que toutes celles et tous ceux qu'ils laissent dans le deuil, et fait fructifier les graines qu'ils ont semées.
Gilles et Leah have been close to our national community and to many of our members. They took part in our national convention in 2010. They have initiated several joint missions with CLC in Canada, in particular the formation of the pre-CVX community in Haiti. They will remain for us an incomparable source of inspiration.
Lord, we thank you for the lives of your servants Leah and Gilles. Since they have been faithful in carrying out your will, welcome them together in your love, watch over their families and all those they leave behind in mourning, and make the seeds they have sown bear fruit.
Marie-Gabrielle, CVX au Canada français

To the family of Leah and Gilles,
Our sincerest condolences to you on the loss of your parents. Doug and I first met Gilles and Leah in 1976. We had just recently relocated to PEI and we were in search of support in following the Christian way of life in community. Mutual friends recommended them to us as a couple who very engaged in building community. We were young newlyweds and it seemed they represented all we aspired to be. We met them occasionally over the years but one incident stands out. In 2002, Doug was in Rome as the Canadian delegate at the General Elective Chapter of the Secular Franciscan Order. At that event, he was unexpectedly elected as a Presidency Councillor to serve on the International Presidency headquartered in Rome. It was an emotional time for both of us since I was not able to be present for the installation. This event happened to coincide with Gilles and Leah’s time in serving as Executive Secretaries at the CLC Secretariat in Rome. Somehow, they got wind of Doug’s election and showed up at the Vatican to be present for the ceremony. Their presence meant so much to both of us - familiar faces from home there to witness what was for us a life-changing event. Thank you for sharing your beautiful parents with so many of us. May they rest in the loving arms of God!
-Doug and Marion (Keefe) Clorey

Leah and Gilles have been such a presence in our lives for as long as I can remember. Leah and I drove to UPEI for months and took Religious Studies together. I will always value our conversations. So kind, intelligent and socially aware. Both wonderful, supportive and life long friends to mom and dad (Ann & David). The loss of 2 beautiful souls who gave so much to everyone and everything they met and encountered saddens us all, but makes us thankful for having been a part of their lives. So sorry for your loss.

To the families of Giles and Leah. I am so sorry for your loss. What an interesting life they lived and accomplished so many wonderful things. We knew your parents when were stationed in Greenwood, Nov Scotia and had a close relationship with them for the three years we were there. We took camping trips with them, attended social events and also church functions. They were a great inspiration to us spiritually and a beautiful couple that we never forgot. I know that you children probably do not remember us, but we have fond memories of you.
May the great memories that you have of your parents help sustain you at this difficult time.
In our hearts and prayers. Eileen (Ken deceased) and family

Dear Diane, Joanne, Richard and your families,
We send our condolences on the passing of your beloved parents, Gilles and Leah. They were friends, mentors, and faithfull servants of God. Their faithfullness, passion, wisdom and humility have touched us and many others around the world. Their legacy in CLC and Ignatian Spirituality is a blessing that will live on and continue to benefit CLC Canada and beyond. In memory of Gilles and Leah, we made a donation to the Father John English Founders Fund to assist with formation and development of CLC Canada, and enrolled them in perpetual membership for prayers and Masses with the Jesuits of Canada. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. May you find comfort and peace in knowing that your parents now rest in eternal life with the Trinity.

ABOUT US
In the late 1980's, a group of citizens from the East Prince area met to discuss the possibility of establishing a co-operative funeral home. Two such homes were operating successfully in Prince County, namely the West Prince Funeral Home in Palmer Road and the Evangeline Funeral Home in Urbainville. As a result, on January 24th, 1989, the East Prince Funeral Co-operative Ltd. was formed.
