Friday, May 10, 2013Bruno de Repentigny, Rougemont F.D. On May 10th 2013, Bruno de Repentigny - Chief of the Rougemont Fire Department - died following a very aggressive cancer. As a member of the Rougemont F.D., I have served under his command for more than two years. But I have known him pretty much my whole life, as I was watching him with curiosity lead his men during a few fires. A passionate chief and an exceptional man has left us. Rest in peace, Chief.
