Ian and Vicky were married 44 years and had two sons Michael (Rebecca) and Christopher, and two grandchildren Henry and Whitney. Ian was the eldest of nine children: brothers Peter (Marion), Dave, Rod (Judy), Chris and Jon (Sandra); sisters Maggie (Roger), Dianne (Randy) and Kathy (Larry).
Ian was predeceased by his mother Iona and father John. Ian will also be missed by Vicky’s family Maude, Emily, Daphne (Lawrence), Joyce (Dave) and many cousins, nieces, nephews and friends.
Ian loved to fish, hunt, ride his ATV and sit in the sun. He spent many summers at Deep Bay, and in later years at Cultus Lake. Ian worked at Woodwards for many years until they were bought out by Safeway. He then worked for Safeway until his retirement at age 57.
Ian was a member of the Richmond Retriever club, training labs and running in field trials. Ian was a kind and gentle man who never had a bad word to say about anyone and always looked for the best in people. We will miss him dearly!
