Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Raymond Ronnie Grossetete was born on June 21st, 1973 in Fort Simpson. He passed away on May 13th, 2022 at the age of 49. When we heard that he had passed away, the family and friends were very shocked and saddened. Mr. Speaker, his death has taken away a genuinely warm individual, more importantly a loving uncle, brother depriving so many of a good person. While the family and friends mourned the loss, they gathered in Fort Simpson to pay tribute and celebrate a life that was well lived.

I can advise you that he had left a lasting impression in the minds of his acquaintances and others. People knew him as a pleasant, cooperative, helpful, and dedicated individual.

Mr. Speaker, Ronnie, through his decorum and grace, endeared himself to many. This is particularly a difficult and painful time for the family. I am extending them my heartfelt condolences. I wish them courage and strength to bear this irreparable loss.

Mr. Speaker, was truly enjoyed by his nieces and nephews. They made him feel special, and he was always excited to see them and help out where he could.

Ronnie was predeceased by his parents.
Mr. Speaker, the family would like to thank everybody for their support during this difficult time. He will be forever missed by his surviving family and friend's. We'll sadly miss him. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
