Joshua Terence "J.T." Rousseau

As a result of a tragic accident, we are deeply heartbroken to announce Josh's passing on Tuesday, January 1, 2019, at the young age of 27. Beloved and cherished son of Terence "Terry" and Patricia Rousseau. Best friend and loving brother of Tricia and Aaron Jacob. Josh is survived by the light of his life, his god-daughter Alexa Rose Jacob. Loving grandson of Patricia "Mimi" Desjardins, the late Bernard "Pipi" Desjardins, the late Gabrielle Rousseau, and the late Lionel Rousseau. Josh will be terribly missed by his second family; Paul, Charlotte, Tiffany (Greg), and P.J. Desjardins. Josh leaves behind a large and loving family of aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. He will also be missed by his feline "boys"; Che and Kismit as well as his canine buddy Zoey. Josh has been reunited with his unborn son and his uncle, Kit Rousseau, who have gone on before him. Josh had an eclectic grouping of hobbies and interests including, but not limited to, working on cars (especially with his dad Terry), art, tattoos, Native heritage, interesting hair do's, music, Star Wars, and history; and dreamt of one day becoming a blacksmith. Josh left a smile on the face of everyone he met. He marched to the beat of his own drum. But most importantly, he lived his best life, on his own terms. Family and friends will be received on Tuesday, January 8, 2019 from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. at Anderson Funeral Home & Cremation Centre, 895 Ouelette Ave. A Funeral Service will be held in the Chapel on Wednesday, January 9, 2019 at 12 noon. Cremation will follow. In memory of Josh, it would have meant so much to him and would mean so much to his family if in his honour you do something nice for another person, in whatever capacity is within your means. You don't need to have a lot to be a good person, do a good deed or make someone's day. This will be the legacy Josh leaves behind.
