Official Twitter of the 2x Vanier Cup National Champion University of Ottawa Gee-Gees 🐎 Équipe de football des Gee-Gees, 2 fois championne de la coupe Vanier.
It is with extremely heavy hearts that we share the news that we have lost one of our own. Fifth-year defensive lineman Francis Perron passed away yesterday in Toronto.
We are heartbroken and pulling together as a family. This will not be easy, but we will do it together.
Much bigger than football. Proud to have played for you today.
Thank you for your support

C’est avec grande tristesse que nous vous annonçons que nous avons perdu l’un des nôtres. Francis Perron, joueur de ligne défensive à sa cinquième saison avec nous, est décédé hier à Toronto.
