Aristide Bien Obituary, Death – On December 21, Aristide, who was eighty years old at the time, was summoned to his Heavenly Father’s loving arms and brought home to be with him permanently. He was welcomed into the company of his father Vincenzo, his mother Teresa (whom he cherished), and his brothers Benito, Mario, Hortensio, Giovanni, Aristide (1st), and Aurelio (1st), with Bruno (in Italy) and Aurelio (2nd) remaining in London, England. His father Vincenzo was the one who welcomed him into their circle of family.
At the time of his passing, Aristide was around by some of the most devoted members of his family. He was a blessing from God to his wife Marjie, where they were celebrating their 55th year of a beautiful marriage. In addition to being a cherished father to his sons Alex (Shelly) and Sebastian (Kristen), he was also a blessing to his wife. His grandchildren, Jessica (Evan), Alexander (Jen), Juliana, and Daniel, adored him and called him “papa.
He was also a great-grandfather to Lucas, Elisa (Ellie), and Guinevere (Ginny), all of whom revered him. He was a “papa” to all of his grandchildren. Aristide was very exceptional as a tailor in each and every one of these locations, from Italy to England to Bermuda to Niagara Niagara. In the course of his semi-retirement, he spent two seasons working at the Shaw Festival in Niagara-on-the-Lake by performing in various productions. This came about after he had been employed by the corporation in St. Catharines for a considerable amount of time. He was in the process of teaching his tailoring skills to Elaine Redding, a close friend and seamstress, while at the same time he was dressing the performers himself in his exquisite suits.
