Hello Mme. Pourcelet,

Please accept our deepest condolences for your dear loss.

- David. Antonietta, Francesca and Gabriella

Tatiana and I are so sorry to have recently learnt of the passing of Michel.  Our sincere condolences to Katherine, Veronique, Nicholas and the larger Pourcelet family.

Michel was my boss in ICAO and a friend from the beginning in 1988 when I was an intern, and he kept urging me to visit “the Mountain”, although I could not at the time understand why I should as I am from a mountainous country.  

He had a fabulous sense of humour and the source of many riveting stories.  It seems he would call me into his office every Monday morning for a fresh joke.  I wrote many down and passed them onwards as my own.

I have only great memories of Michel, and I truly cannot recall one moment when I was not happy to be around him.

I will miss Michel.  May his soul Rest In Peace. 

When we first moved to Montreal, we were so lucky to have Katherine and Michel as our wonderful neighbours on Dr. Penfield. We will miss Michel – he was gracious and charming, and he always made us feel special. Our deepest condolences to Katherine and the Pourcelet family.

Toutes mes condoléances à la famille de Michel. Il fut un grand juriste, un homme d'action et de conviction. J'ai eu le plaisir de vraiment faire sa connaissance dans un dossier judiciarisé alors qu'il était notre expert en droit public international.
Je conserve la copie de la Charte des Nations Unies dont il me fit cadeau (pièce R-21 du dossier de la Cour!). Il croyait beaucoup en cette grande institution.
Michel, vous êtes dans mes prières.



Chère Katherine ,
Tant de souvenirs si lointains et toujours présents !

Michel was a great god father to my brother and great uncle to me.  My memories growing up were of a Renaissance man one that was sophisticated,  knowledgeable and proud.   I can’t help but remember (for some unknown reason) walking by your home on Roslyn ave.  his grey Peugeots’ and how impeccably clean they always were....  It is a small memory but one that I will always associate to my uncle Michel.  My deepest condolences to my amazing aunt Katalin, my cousins Nicolas, Veronique and your families....  My heart and thoughts are with you in this difficult time. 



Our deepest condolences to the Pourcelet family on the loss of your dear patriarch, Michel. We always remember Michel as a wonderful neighbour on Roslyn Avenue.  We are blessed to have one of his beautiful paintings which we will continue to enjoy as we  remember him most fondly

We first met Michel at the Université de Montréal in the early sixties when he taught us the law of sales as a newly arrived professor from France. We reconnected several years after law school and our relationship with Michel and Katherine developed into a close friendship.

Michel was a Renaissance man, a teacher, a soldier and a diplomat, worldly, cultured and elegant, always loyal and true to his values. He held strong opinions on a myriad of matters and frequently expressed  his insightful observations with humorous cynicism. Above all, he loved Katherine, his children and grandchildren.

Michel’s passing is a great loss, not only to his family, but to his former students, colleagues and many friends around the globe. We offer our sincere condolences to Katherine, Véronique and Nicolas on the death of our friend Michel.

My most heartfelt and sincere condolences to all of Michel's family and friends on his passing.  I will always remember with great fondness the wonderful conversations I had with Michel and learning from him as he shared his insights, experience, and knowledge. I know he will be very much missed by all who loved him.

My sincerest heartfelt condolences go out to the entire family during this very sad moment.

Mr. Pourcelet had many outstanding qualities, but I will always remember him as a very witty, charismatic and genuine person who always made me feel at home. I am grateful for having had the privilege of meeting him, and for the fond memories I have of him. 

Please accept our deepest sympathy.  Michel was a kind, intelligent man and his passing will be a loss to all of those who knew him. May God's blessing help his family to get through this difficult time. Jeannie and Nelson Saunders

Très attristé par le départ de notre compagnon dans la Légion d'honneur, je vous adresse mes plus profondes condoléances. Michel a toujours témoigné une solide fidélité à notre association de Québec ;je lui en suis reconnaissant et nos entretiens téléphoniques réguliers vont me manquer.
Au revoir, mon ami.
