Michel Ayotte

Michel (Mitch) Ayotte peacefully passed away with his family by his side on Tuesday, May 6, 2025, at the Témiscaming hospital. He was born in Témiscaming on May 21, 1962.

He is survived by his wife Hali, his stepsons Levi (Steph), Dylan (Winter), and by his sons André (Andy) and Jean-Marc.

He loved being a grandfather to Charlie, Clay, and Leo. He looked forward to giving them rides on the tractor, Ski-Doo, and 4-wheeler as much as they did.

He will be missed by his siblings: Liane (Tim), Jean (Pierrette), André (Tammy), Sylvain (Sue), Mario (Huguette), Marianne (Murray), Lynn (Floyd); his mother-in-law Beryl; his brother-in-law Jason (Sandy); and by his sister-in-law Dana (Kelly). He will be fondly remembered by many nieces, nephews, extended relatives, and friends.

Michel was predeceased by his parents, Yvon and Laura Ayotte, by his niece Tayona Meir and by his father-in-law Arie Glasbergen.

Mitch had many hobbies including snowmobiling, fishing, cycling, cross-country skiing, kayaking, and droning. He enjoyed annual camping trips with friends, which included campfires, playing games, and cards.

His latest passion was milling wood and building his dream home.

In memory of Michel, donations to Mission Tournesol would be greatly appreciated by his family.

Michel est parti rejoindre ses parents, Yvon et Laura Ayotte, sa nièce Tayona Meir ainsi que son beau-père Arie Glasbergen.

Mitch avait de nombreux passe-temps, notamment la motoneige, la pêche, le vélo, le ski de fond, le kayak et les drones. Il aimait les voyages de camping annuels avec ses amis, qui comprenaient des feux de camp, des jeux et des parties de cartes.

Sa dernière passion était le sciage du bois et la construction de sa maison de rêve.
