“I was with him until his last breath. He was my lover, my accomplice.”
November 26, 2023 marks the sixth anniversary of the death of Patrick Bourgeois, one of Quebecers’ favorite singers.
To pay tribute to him, his daughter Marie-William Bourgeois and the late BB singer’s long-time lover Mélanie Savard decided to create a vintage T-shirt The BB Snob tour 1992 to collect donations for colon cancer support.
“I am so proud of my father and his path in life. I only have good memories of him,” says Marie-William, also the photographer behind this campaign.
“That’s why this project is very important to me, I always wanted to honor it with respect and love,” she adds.
For every t-shirt sold, $5 will be donated directly to the Canadian Cancer Society to raise funds to fight colon cancer.
“I was Patrick’s companion for the last eighteen years of his life and with him until his last breath. He was my lover, my accomplice. In his memory, I had to make people aware of the importance of colon cancer prevention,” says Mélanie Savard, not without great emotion, as you can imagine.
The t-shirts are available for pre-sale until November 26th for $49.95 and can be purchased directly here.
