Christopher Michaud

With his wife and daughters at his bedside, Christopher Michaud of Plaster Rock, NB, passed away very peacefully at the Grand Falls General Hospital on the morming of July 14, 2026.

Chris was worn in Aldershot, England, on December 23, 1945 and he came to Canada as a baby.

Known for his honesty and hard work ethic, he lived each day for his family. He worked in the woods as a skidder owner / operator for many years. Weekends were spent in the garage, keeping his equipment in top shape.

His younger years saw Chris spending a lot of his free time at Spuds Speedway, where he took home lots of trophies, a highlight of his life. Later in life he became a truck driver with the same work ethic.

He enjoyed his friends and spent many long days and evenings doing repairs on many vehicles.

His family was his pride and joy... spending lots of time with those he loved most.

Chris was predeceased by his parents Auguste and Elsie Michaud, his first wife Lorraine Michaud (Albert), and their two infant daughters, Kimberly and Holly. His daughter Chelsea, his sister Debbie St-Peter and in-laws Roland St-Peter, Billy Elliott, Marise Michaud, and Linda Michaud.
