With memories of a life well lived, the family of Denis Joseph Hebert announces his passing at the age of 88 years on Friday, October 17, 2025, at the Lac La Biche Healthcare Long Term Care.
Denis met the love of his life in Atmore, Alberta, in 1961 and they had four beautiful children together while he worked as a mechanic and a welder. He was very thankful to have Madeleine by his side as she was the glue that held the family together. The family’s favourite memory of Denis was his sense of humor and notable one liners. He had a passion for the outdoors and a sweet tooth (all of them to be exact).
