Dartmouth, NS
April 28, 1972 - August 2, 2024
It is with broken hearts that the family of Roland Gallant announce his sudden passing at the age of 52 on August 2nd, 2024.
Born in the small town of Oyster Bed Bridge, PEI on April 28th, 1972, he lived big and loved even bigger. Roland was well known for his “larger than life” personality, he had an unforgettable presence and was loved by everyone who met him. He was a loving and devoted husband to his wife and soulmate, Susan and fiercely proud of his four sons, Tyler Leard (Meagan) Jacob, Jaron and Justin Gallant. Family was everything to Roland.
Roland is also survived by his loving mother Bernadette Gallant, adored sisters Lisa Gallant (Jon), and Erin Welcher (Patrick), cherished nieces Lucy and Lola Welcher, mother and father-in-law Sheila and Douglas Haines and Cherie Gaudet (Mel). As well as Grammy Joyce, sister and brother-in-law, Lindsey and Josh Fader and families. Roland had many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends who loved him dearly and held a special place in his life.
Roland graduated from Dalhousie Engineering in 2000 and worked as a professional engineer for the majority of his career. In 2015 he left the corporate world to become an entrepreneur with A Buyers Choice Home Inspections, a profession he truly enjoyed. With his dedicated work ethic, he quickly became known and well-respected in that field building close connections with many colleagues.
Roland will live on in our hearts and through his boys. He will be missed every day.
Susan and the boys wish to thank their family, friends and neighbours for the tremendous outpouring of support throughout this painful time.
Roland will be honoured in a celebration of life at a later date.
