In memory of
James Lorenzo Tapp
July 11, 1934 – November 02, 2024
- 90 years old
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our dear brother Lonzo on November 2nd, 20204. He was born James Lorenzo Tapp on July 11, 1934 in Barachois, Quebec. He was predeceased by his parents James Tapp and Beatrice Lemieux, his brother Romeo and sister Marcella, Edwina and Madonna. Lonzo was also predeceased by his wife Jean Kimmins and partner Flora Asselin. Left to mourn are his brother Wilton, his sisters Mill, Emma, Norma and Carmen along with many nieces, nephews and friends.
Lonzo worked for Kimberly Clark in Longlac, Ontario for over 25 years. There, he and his wife Jean volunteered for many community organizations. His favorite was a fishing derby that he sponsored for many years while Jean baked goods for all occasions.
After retirement, Lonzo and Jean moved back to Barachois where they continued to give back to their community. They joined the Barachois Legion and the Mountain View Golden Age where he spent many years as president. Lonzo remained an active member of the Golden Age, generously giving his time even as recently as the October Harvest Supper.
Lonzo had a great love of music, playing guitar and signing. He played music greatly with many musicians from around Gaspe coast. Whether it was at a festival, church choir or community event, Lonzo enjoyed every minute and his presence will be greatly missed by those around him.
A funeral service will be held next summer in Barachois.
Donation may be made to the Gaspe Cancer Foundation.
Professional services have been entrusted to the Valère Fortin Funeral Home Inc., a subsidiary of the HG Division network certified Distinction by the Corporation des thanatologues du Quebec and by the Bureau de normalisation du Quebec.
The management and staff of HG Division offer their deepest condolences to the family and thank them for their trust.
