He will be missed by his wife, Imogene, of ten years; his two daughters, Donna (Bill) Scott, and Bev (David) Roy; four grandchildren: Trudy, Linda (Gerald), Gordon (Lisa), and Stewart; Imogene’s son, Rick (Janis), and grandchildren: Tara, Britteny, Sondra, and Joe; two sisters, Marg McGee of Vernon and Dorothy Norris of Victoria; many nieces, nephews and their families.

A reception will follow in the church hall. A special thank you to all the staff at Creekside Landing for their warmth and excellent care.
