Please help with expenses following Scotty’s sudden passing.

Please help Kelsey cover expenses and debts following the unexpected death of her husband, Scotty.

We are heartbroken to share the sudden loss of Scotty Gordon Dagenais who, tragically passed away, on March 11, 2026, at the age of 42.

Scotty was a beloved son, brother, husband, father, uncle, nephew, cousin, friend, employer, colleague, neighbour—and so much more to so many. His loss is deeply felt by all who knew and loved him. His absence has left an unimaginable void in their family, who are trying to navigate this overwhelming grief while supporting his four children – ages 18, 15, 15, and 2 - through this incredibly difficult time.

Scotty was self-employed and did not have life insurance, which has added an unexpected financial burden, during an already devastating time. We are hoping to raise funds to help cover funeral and memorial expenses, ongoing care and therapy for his children and Kelsey, and to assist with the challenges of managing his insolvent estate.

Any support, no matter the amount, would mean more to them than words can express. If you are not able to donate, sharing this page is deeply appreciated. Most importantly, they are grateful for your love, compassion and support as they begin to navigate life without him.

Thank you for helping honour Scotty’s memory and for standing beside his family during this incredibly difficult time.
