Michael Joseph Doupe Passed on September 24, 2023, at his home on the shores of Lake Temiskaming. Mike was born April 6, 1961, in Port Perry, Ontario, to John Joseph Doupe and Rosetta Marlinne Doupe (née Stone). He was predeceased by his father, and elder sister, Marcelle; survived by sister, Suzanne; and brother, David. He leaves four loving children, Jacob, Micah, Abraham and Michael; as well as grandson, Solomon. A thoughtful and articulate man who did not shy away from controversy, Mike had an undergraduate degree in economics from Dalhousie, a Masters in Economics and a Law Degree from Western. He built his own law practice in the town of New Liskeard, where he served clients with passion and integrity for three decades. Mike understood work/life balance before it became a topic and was a devoted father to his daughter and three sons. Mike may have left the party a little early, but not until he fully enjoyed all that was being offered. A Memorial Mass will be held on Friday, October 6, 2023, at 11 a.m. at Our Mother of Perpetual Help Church, 81 Maple Street North, New Liskeard. The family will receive condolences at the church as of 10 a.m. For those who are unable to attend the Memorial Mass, please follow the link below for the Facebook livestreaming event:
