Obituary of Maurice (Moe) Richard Leblanc

Moe died peacefully and quietly five days short of his 76th birthday at the Ottawa Hospital (Civic Campus) after a short illness. Born in Montreal, he spent most of his working career as a writer and editor for the in-house publications of the University of Ottawa and Canada Post.

He is survived by his husband, Ted Ledingham, his brother Paul (Monique Prescott), his sister-in-law Anstice Blom, and nieces-in-law Mary An Blom and Dianne Schmidt (Gary). He was predeceased by his parents, Gilles and Dorothy (nee Mitchell). At his request, there will be no service, but a celebration of his life will be held at his favourite meeting place, John’s Family Diner, 1365 Wellington Street West, Ottawa, from 3:30-5:30pm on Friday, October 20. In lieu of flowers, a donation to the Heart and Stroke Fund or your favourite charity would be appreciated.
