Message à faire parvenir à la famille... (s'il n'est pas trop tard - sinon, me fournir une adresse courriel pour que je leur achemine ce qui suit. Merci) RSVP.

Bonjour à la famille d'Évelyne Tellier.
Je suis un ancien collègue d'Évelyne à la Bibliothèque nationale. J'ai avisé plusieurs de ses anciens collègues de son décès.
Quelques-uns qui ont travaillé plus étroitement avec elle m'ont fait parvenir des témoignages de sympathie.
J'aimerais vous les partager...
J'ajoute mes propres condoléances aux leurs.

Here are some testimonies about Évelyne Tellier...


What a dear soul Evelyne was. Such a conscientious cataloguer and good colleague. It was a joy to work with her. May she rest in peace after such a long and fruitful life!
Gerald Parker

So sad. I remember Evelyne well from my time in the Cataloguing Branch at NLC in the 1980s and my connections with the music section. She was a gentle and charming lady who stood out from others by her graciousness. Although I didn’t know her well I remember her and her quiet smile with great warmth. May you rest in a well–deserved peace Evelyne.
Tony Woodward


Merci André pour ces tristes nouvelles. I also remember her from my beginnings at the National Library when the whole music team was together at 395—she was so pleasant, so elegant, such a “lady” always. Je suis actuellement en Angleterre mais je partage dans le deuil avec tous ces ami(e)s et anciens collègues.

Thanks for sending other remembrances of Evelyne Tellier. Eleanor Wees and I had a good visit with Evelyne in December 2014. We had hoped to visit again, but it was not possible. I telephoned Eleanor soon after I got your email with the sad news. She and I would like to attend the service for Evelyne on Wed., but it might not be possible.

I certainly remember Eveylne with great affection. She was so knowledgeable about Quebecois popular music and so competent in her work, doing everything with grace and good humour. I always remember her with great affection.

With sadness, but with good memories of Evelyne in Music Cataloguing.
