In Loving Memory of Logan MacKenzie (“Logie”)

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Logan MacKenzie (“Logie”), who passed away on June 22, 2026, at the age of 81.

Born on April 22, 1945, in Sarnia, Ontario, Logie will be lovingly remembered by his devoted wife, Yvonne MacKenzie; his beloved daughters, Nicole Lynch (Brian), Laurie Émond, and Michelle Denomy (Chris Clark); his cherished grandchildren, Connor Elnicki (Brittany), Jordan Elnicki (Rachel), Onnika Blake (Roshane), and Taria Kjeldsen; and his adored great-grandchildren, Georgia, Gracie, and Olivia.

Logie lived a life marked by love, dedication, and kindness. He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, family man, and friend whose presence brought comfort, laughter, and joy to all who knew him.

Logie worked as a crane operator for many years and took great pride in his work. Outside of his career, he enjoyed spending time in his workshop, boating, and riding his Harley trike. He was known for his remarkable ability to fix or build almost anything, his quick wit and sense of humor, and his unwavering love and support for his family.

Cremation has taken place. A celebration of Logie’s life will be held at a the Corunna Legion on July 5, 2026 from 1-4 pm.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Lily and the palliative care team for the compassionate care and support they provided to Logie, both at home and in the hospital. We would also like to sincerely thank the many friends and relatives who visited, shared their time and companionship, and brought food during his illness. Your kindness, generosity, and support brought great comfort to Logie and his family and will never be forgotten.

Logie’s legacy of hard work, generosity, ingenuity, and love will live on in the hearts of all who knew him. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered by his family, friends, and all whose lives he touched.

Today, the Board of Directors and staff of Lakeview Cemetery would like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone who attended Sunday's Decoration Day Ceremony.

This year's event was especially meaningful as we joined our community in recognizing the 100th Anniversary of the Sarnia Legion Branch 62, a remarkable milestone celebrating a century of service, remembrance, and support for veterans and their families.

We were honoured to work alongside Legion members, volunteers, community leaders, veterans, cadets, and residents who helped make the ceremony such a respectful and memorable occasion.

We would also like to acknowledge the efforts made toward the restoration and preservation of our veterans' memorials by Memorial Restorations. These projects help ensure that the stories, sacrifices, and legacies of those who served are remembered for future generations. Preserving these monuments is an important responsibility, and we are proud to play a role in that work.

Decoration Day remains one of the most important traditions in our community—a time to pause, reflect, and honour the men and women who served our country.

Thank you to everyone who attended, participated, volunteered, and helped keep this tradition strong.

Lest We Forget.

💧 NEW AT LAKEVIEW CEMETERY & CREMATION SERVICES 💧

We have received many questions about Aquamation (also known as Water Cremation), and we are pleased to announce that this environmentally conscious option will be available at Lakeview beginning June 1, 2026.

Aquamation uses water, temperature, and gentle circulation to facilitate the natural process of returning the body to its basic elements. Many families choose Aquamation because it is viewed as a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional cremation while still providing the same dignity, care, and respect for their loved one.

Our introductory Aquamation package will be available for $2,399 and includes the professional care and guidance families have come to expect from Lakeview.

For over 140 years, Lakeview has proudly served the families of Sarnia-Lambton with compassionate, affordable, and local death-care services. Our licensed funeral directors are available to answer any questions you may have about Aquamation, cremation, burial, pre-planning, and memorialization services.

Edgar Lebreton “Ed”

December 27, 1938 – May 12, 2026

With sorrow and much love, the family of Ed Lebreton announces his peaceful passing on May 12, 2026, at the age of 87. Beloved husband of Donna Jean since 1961. Lovingly remembered by his daughters Kimberley Ann Cox (Leonard) and Shelley Jean Morton(Christopher). Treasured by his grandchildren Shayne, Katrina, Aaron, Jeremy, Noah and Coda and his great-grandchildren Landen, Chloe, Addison and Liv.

Cherished brother of Gerald, Geraldine, Genevieve and Jennette. Loved brother-in-law to David and Donna Powers.

He will be dearly missed by his neighbours and friends at The Sandpiper.

Ed was predeceased by his parents Alvina and Delphis Lebreton, his siblings Gerald, Geraldine, Genevieve and Jennette, his precious grandson Jeremy Christopher, his brother-in-law David Powers and son-in-law Lenny Cox.

Ed was born in Dalhousie, New Brunswick, working on farms until reuniting with his brother and sisters in Ontario. He eventually settled in Sarnia, building a home and a life with Donna. Sixty-four years filled with roses and memories.

His greatest joy was spending time with his grandchildren…camping, teaching them how to fish, playing cards, board games, and enjoying s’mores around the campfire. So many cherished moments and family memories.

A pipefitter by trade, Ed enjoyed learning Instrumentation and worked well beyond his retirement age. He was a true gentleman and was always available to lend a hand.

Ed was a quiet man, a gentle soul, a man of great faith and prayer. He loved the Lord, he loved the Word and faced life’s challenges through the lens of eternity. Ed found comfort in the promises of God such as 2 Timothy 4:7 “I fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” While we grieve his passing, we have peace that Ed has completed his journey and now rests in the arms of the Saviour, free from pain and sorrow, rejoicing in the presence of the Almighty.

Cremation has taken place and a private family gathering will be held at a later date. Memorial donations may be made to the Alzheimer Society of Sarnia-Lambton or Down Syndrome Association of Lambton County.

Born on October 26, 1959, Glenda is now reunited with her beloved husband, Steven Hilliard. She will be deeply missed by her children, Travis, Mallory (Shannon), and Shelby (John).

Carmela Montanino (nee Rescigno)

October 26, 1938 – May 4, 2026

Carmela passed away peacefully with all her family around her after a long, hard-fought journey with dementia. While the dementia gradually took away her independence and memories, it never took away her sense of humour, kindness and love of all things Neapolitan, especially the beautiful Neapolitan music that was a big part of her early years.

She is survived by her husband, Frank Montanino, her children Tony (Jennifer) Montanino, Teresa Montanino and Rob (Sandra) Montanino and her grandchildren Milena, Theo, Marcus, Luca, Francesca, Dominique and John. Her brothers Savario (Pasqualina) Rescigno and Felice (Felicetta) Rescigno predeceased her.

Born in Cimitile, Italy, Carmela lived there until she married Frank in October 1967. She courageously moved with Frank to Canada and overcame the immense challenges of building a new life without knowing the language. She worked tirelessly as an entrepreneur, while balancing the demands of raising three children and her hobbies of gardening, cooking, baking and making tomato sauce and wine. She dedicated herself to family and will be remembered for her generosity, warm affection, kindness, humour and the many delicious meals she prepared in her kitchen.

We will be forever indebted to the countless amazing people who supported and cared for Carmela, particularly in the past few years. From the in-home care provided by VON and CarePartners, Dr. David Kim, specialists, personal care workers and nurses, to the incredibly compassionate staff and volunteers at St Joseph’s Hospice for their end-of-life care and support. We will never forget your dedication and kindness.

The family will plan a celebration of life to be announced at a later date. Donations can be made in lieu of flowers to either St. Joseph’s Hospice Sarnia or the Alzheimer Society of Sarnia-Lambton.
