Michel Villeneuve
1955 – 2006
A long-time member of Local 180, Michel quietly passed away earlier this year.
He studied trumpet at the Conservatoire de musique du Quebec in Hull and began performing in his teens with many ensembles. A member of the Ottawa Symphony Orchestra for almost 20 years, he was also an integral member of the Hull Chamber Orchestra and a founding member of the Cathedral Brass. Il était un gentilhomme dédié à son travail. Il restera toujours cher à ses amis et collègues.
Our sincerest condolences go out to his family. Rest in peace.
