Rob Plank

PLANK, Robert Charles Fredrick, late of Cloverdale, BC, passed away suddenly at home on June 27,2013, at the age of 42 years. Predeceased by his father John, mother Jacquie and baby daughter Zoe. He will be lovingly remembered by his wife Heather and sons, Ethan and Colton and many other family and friends.

Rob’s school years were active, participating in any sport available. Track became his passion and later cycling. Rob even tried his hand in a teen rock band. Rob began working with the BC Ambulance Service in 1992. He started in Whistler, Lower Mainland and then the Province. He had many hobbies that included hunting, fishing and dirt biking. He loved rock climbing and mountaineering and challenged himself to climb many of the highest peaks on several continents. In 2000 he began climbing to raise funds for the BC Children’s Hospital. Rob’s love of sports has carried on through his life and he loved coaching lacrosse and soccer for his boys.

Anything that Rob did he excelled at. He never did anything half way.

A Celebration of Rob’s life will be held at Victory Memorial Park Chapel, 14831 – 28th Avenue, Surrey, BC., on Saturday, July 6, 2013 at 2:00 pm. A reception will follow in the Reception Centre.

Flowers are most gratefully declined, however, memorial donations to the BC Cancer Agency in memory of Rob's mother, Jacquie would be greatly appreciated.
