Thomas Brian Lauzon passed away on February 7th, 2022, at the age of 68. He was born in Portage la Prairie & lived in Winnipeg, MB. After a short battle with cancer, his final days were spent at home surrounded by his family & his dogs.

 

 He was predeceased by his parents, Tom & Betty Lauzon. Brian was the oldest of five children & is survived by his siblings Bill, Steve, Jeff & Sandra (Dianne.) He attended Westwood Collegiate & was always into fitness.

 

He worked 19 years as a bus driver for the City of Winnipeg having recently retired to his love of writing, drawing, & his wife Kerri. Brian loved animals. Once his wife found an injured baby bunny which he took in & nursed back to health.

 

When set free, Mrs. Bunny didn’t go far. She set up house in the backyard living under the raspberry bush. Each time Brian went outside, she’d come hopping over to say hi. Brian loved to travel, especially on cruise ships. He would get up early beforehand just to watch the ship pull into port & parallel park. Sunrises & sunsets on the cruise were magical. He’d listen to the waves & watch the stars at night while sitting on the balcony. It was something we continued to do when at home. Brian adored his little girl, a 6 pound yorkie named Miss E. After giving her a bath, he’d watch her race around the house, drying herself off. He would laugh so hard watching her. Hilarious.

 

He was an amazing writer & gifted artist. He poured his heart & soul into his artwork touching many people with his creations. He loved mentoring young artists. May he live on through this.

 

 Special thanks to Rick & Carol MacKenzie for all your help. You brought strength & love. Thank you to Carlos who often stopped by with coffee. Brian is survived by wife & best friend, Kerri, his children Tawni, Kendyl, Joshua, Isaiah, Ariel, & daughter of his heart, Rebecca.
