LAFRAMBOISE, Earl " "T Boy " It is with deep regret that we announce the passing of our loving father Earl ("T Boy) Laframboise on February 29, 2016 in his 82nd year. He is reunited with our mother Marion whom we lost 6 months ago. He will be sorely missed by children Earl Jr. (Butch), Cindy Scodeller (Ren) and Leslie. Pepe to Ryan Scodeller, (Violeta) and Dana Scodeller (Kelly) and great-grandfather to Analise and Theodore. Earl was predeceased by parents Gaspar and Florence, brothers Gerard (Norma), Alfred (Lisa), and sisters Claire Muzzin (Elio). He is survived by brother Robert, and sisters Jeanine Samson (Leonard), Claudette Bourdeau (Richard), Lizette Siwek (John), Lucille Mifsud (Vincent) and Charmaine Nunn (David). Also survived by brother-in-law Paul White (Carole) and sister-in-law Connie White as well as countless nieces and nephews. Earl was a self-educated man who worked full time as a plumber when he was 13 years of age. He later worked at Pete"s Radiator and met our mother whom he married when they were teenagers. Before they were of legal age they owned a home and had 2 children. While in his early 20"s, Earl started Niagara Radiator with brothers Alfred (Pee Wee) and Robert ("T Guy) in a small rented garage behind a house on Niagara St. His brothers would move on to other pursuits and Earl and Marion would add another daughter and move his business to a larger building on Howard Avenue. His business would eventually grow to 3 service shops and a radiator manufacturing company. He would run his business till he retired at 55 because of health reasons. Dad was also a builder of competitive stock cars and after stopping still continued to be involved through sponsorship. Dad was a very self-sufficient man who was a "jack of all trades" and an excellent "horse trader".
