In Loving Memory

 

We are deeply saddened by the passing of our beloved brother, Vladimir Joseph, on August 21, 2025. Vladimir was an exemplary individual, renowned for his honesty, kindness, and generosity. His infectious laughter was a testament to his gentle soul.

Anyone who enters this world bears a cross. Whether one chooses to carry it to the finish line or relinquish it midway is a personal decision. Humility teaches us to refrain from judgment and instead listen with discerning ears to our brother's cry.

Vladimir has left us with an enduring question: Where do we go from here? None should judge until they can walk in his shoes. God has unequivocally granted us freedom of choice and free will.

Romans 8:38-39 declares that "neither life nor death can separate us from the love of God in Christ."

Ultimately, we can entrust Vladimir's soul to God's care, avoiding excessive introspection about his destiny in God's arms.

Vladimir has joined his parents, Camil Joseph and Enide Gibbs Joseph. In his parting message, he wrote, "Please don't blame yourself..."

Though he is no longer physically with us, may his spirit live on through every act of kindness we perform in his name.

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, October 4, 2025, from 1 to 5 pm at:

Service Funeraire Actuel

4500, Rue de Verdun

Verdun, Quebec

H4G 1M3
