I believe this is where Paul and Lisa Bernier live today. Paul's gas would be on the left

I was born and raised in this house! My parents (Paul and Lisa Gagnon Bernier) purchased the house and property from the Morneault family shortly after their marriage in the early 80s. Following a huge renovation in the late 80s, the structure of the house remains the same, apart from an extension of the enclosed front porch. My father and uncle, Paul Gagnon, built Paul's Gas & Car Wash on the lot to the left, where the garden is, in the mid 80s, which is still in operation and currently owned by Ricky Daigle. Across the street is Pelletier Farms, which is also still family owned, operated, and very successful.

Wow what memories my home at one time. I still miss it and always wanted to go visit to see the inside now. Of course the huge garden. Thank you for posting.

The two small blogs in back were for changing and putting skates Rink was on left if bldg and to right if pond

We waited anxiously every year for Mr. Vic Morneault's "eshollettes" which were promply washed, salted, and stored in a gallon jar on the sink. Great memories.
