Arthur Jack Miersch

It is with great sadness that the family of Arthur Jack Miersch announce his sudden passing on Monday February 17, 2025, at the age of 71years. He was surrounded by all his loving family as he peacefully passed on.

He will be lovingly remembered by his wife, Margaret; his children: Charmaine (Troy), Artie, Lacey (Keith); Lyndon (Lisa), and Charity (Matthew); his grandchildren: Kendra, Seth, Hunter, Laney, Talon, Jackson, Preston, Pheonix, Alyviah, Lukas, Greenleigh, Ryatt, Jasper and Reedyn; and his beloved cats Beebee and Joey. Also left to cherish his memory are his mother, Olive (Dolly); siblings: Mike (Carol); Linda; Jayne (Eddie); and Cheryl; many nieces, nephew’s and all his extended family and friends.

Arthur was predeceased by his father, Jack Miersch; stepmother, Beatrice Miersch; brother, Glen Miersch; and sister, Marilyn Sanderson.

Art will be remembered most by family and friends for being a kind, and thoughtful man with a sense of humour that would give the shirt right off his back. Art was a professional truck driver for over 55 years, driving millions of miles, all over Canada and the United States. Right up to the last load to Colville NWT 80km above the artic circle. Being behind the wheel was one of Art’s happy places, listening to music and reminiscing his youth and wild stories. His other happy place was sitting in his recliner In Fort Resolution NWT watching Judge Judy and enjoying his home life surrounded by his children, grandchildren and his loving wife Margaret.

We’d like to thank all the doctors and nurses in the coronary care department at the Edmonton University Hospital for the outstanding care and compassion they provided to Art and his family.

A Celebration of Art’s life will be held at a later date in Hay River, NWT.
