FEBRUARY 14, 1955 – MAY 9, 2014
Dad was lifted to Heaven peacefully in the arms of the angels on May 9th. Mourning his passing are his loving children Amanda and Trevor, his granddaughters Sadie and Emily. Also mourning his passing are his mother Mary, brothers Kurt, Robert and Conrand, numerous aunts, uncles and cousins and his very close friends, Peter Dreschler and Ken Johnson. Dad was predeceased by his father Leonhard in August, 2013, and his brother Fred in February, 2006.
Dad was born and raised in Kamloops. He worked at Kamloops Meats for a number of years and then began work at Royal Inland Hospital in 1980 and retired from the Hospital in 2012. Dad loved to golf, camp, tie flies and fish. He loved his children and grandchildren dearly and treasured the times spent with them. His dear friends Peter and Ken were always there for Dad, and have given us so much support. We are forever grateful to both of you. We also want to express our heartfelt thank you to the nurses and doctors in ICU and 7 North for the compassionate care they provided Dad.
Dad’s final days were in Hospice, and we cannot express enough gratitiude to all the Hospice staff for everything they did to make Dad comfortable until his passing. Thank you to all of you.
A Catholic Funeral Liturgy will be held by Father Fred Weisbeck at Kamloops Funeral Home on Friday, May 16th, at 11:00 am.
In lieu of flowers, donations to Kamloops Hospice will be gratefully appreciated.
WE WILL MISS YOU AND LOVE YOU FOREVER DAD. REST IN PEACE.
