Predeceased by his brothers, Ernest and Bud, and his sister Edwina (Enair). He will be dearly missed by his three children, David, Dawn (Kurt) and Darren (Tracy); his granddaughter Ava; his siblings, Ron, May, Stuart, Carl, Malcolm and their families; his numerous friends from northern Manitoba, southern Manitoba, and southern Ontario and Quebec.
Those who knew him well would describe him as a hard-working man and a problem solver, through his long career in the mining industry, continuing through his retirement into his later years. He respected the hard work ethic when he saw it in others, and he instilled this ethic into his children. His love for the wilderness and outdoors, hunting and fishing was also well known to his family and friends.
A memorial service will be held Saturday, February 8, 2020, at 2:00 p.m. at Thomson "In The Park" Funeral Home, 1291 McGillivray Boulevard.
