Recently discovered a relative woked at OMC and wondering….

[mjmontilino]

I’ve been a boater for over 40 yrs and have been in the industry for 25 yrs. I recently found out a relative worked for OMC as an engineer
in Peterborough Ontario and also in Brugge Belgium in the 1950’s and 60’s. His name is Joseph Michael LaPointe. I’m wondering if anyone might know of him or might know an engineer at OMC from that era who might have information about LaPointe.
Having been in the industry myself I’m so very curious what I can find about him. He passed away in 1981 at the age of 79.

Thank you to anyone who can help.
