Richard "Rick" Arthur Ledger

Born March 3, 1948, in Barrhead, Alberta, Richard carried his roots with him throughout his life, and was a beloved and cherished presence to those who knew him. He later resided in Chilliwack, British Columbia. Richard worked as a leased operator truck driver, a role that reflected steady dedication and a strong sense of responsibility.

Richard is survived by his loving spouse, Jacqueline Ledger; Richard Clinton Edward Ledger; Clifton Wade Arthur Ledger; Nathaniel Vance Morgan Ledger; Danielle Ledger; his four grandchildren; two step- grandchildren; four great grandchildren; brother David Ledger; Simmona Ledger; sisters Edith Edwards and Doreen Bajda; Joe Bajda; sister-in-law Betty Ledger; and many nieces and nephews. Richard’s place within his family was one of deep importance, and his absence will be felt across generations.

Richard enjoyed fixing and building things, finding quiet satisfaction in working with his hands and bringing order and function to what needed repair. He also loved music and listened to a lot of music, a constant companion that brought comfort and enjoyment through the years.

The family would like to thank Cascade Hospice for the care and compassion they showed Richard in his final days.

A memorial service will be decided on a later date.
