NUTE, Darrel - Our Dad passed away peacefully on December 27, 2020 with family at his side. " I was born here in 1925, at 534 Michigan St. I grew up in James Bay and married a fun girl named Shirley from Esquimalt. We had 63 years of adventures together. I am the proud Father of four, Gramps to four 'really great' grandkids, and Great-Gramps to nine delightful characters. One of my accomplishments was to be a member and serve in all three Armed Forces. The other was in my civilian life, I built our two family houses, and a lot of rock walls...LOL! I've had a full life, lots of humour and interesting challenges. And finally, I now want my three kids, all senior citizens, to know I've loved the hell out of them, and absolutely loved watching them grow up.! XOX " RIP Dad, You did it all, You stood tall, and You did it your way. Many thanks to MAiD and The Renaissance for their kindness and support. No service by request.
