Born in Germany and raised in Argentina, he joined the merchant marines to travel the world. Finally settling in Canada with his family in 1967, he started a business that would remain to this day a testament of his work ethics and dedication. He lived his life working hard until the sun went down, and he stayed the course until his last sunset. He gifted us all with the example to live life, give it your all, and help those who need it.
He leaves behind his wife of 53 years Margarete (Greti), his sons Norbert jr. (Chantal), Eric (Mary), grandsons Taylor (Lauren), Colton, Keaton, Spencer, and Lucas. His little Great-granddaughter Audrey. And his four brothers, Manfred (Argentina), Rudy (Coquitlam) Gert and Horst (Germany).
A service will be held June 9th, 2018 2pm
At Boal Chapel , 1505 Lillooet Rd, North Vancouver, BC
In lieu of flowers, we ask that you perform an act of kindness to someone in need of help to honor Norbert Sr. , who touched so many, all over the world.
The family wishes to express heartfelt gratitude for the excellent care received from the nurses and home care workers of Coastal Health. Their compassionate hearts were a great comfort.
Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared at www.MeM.com for the Tietze family.
