Delmar Ferguson
January 16, 1943 – February 19, 2021
Delmar L. Ferguson Jan 16, 1943 - February 19, 2021 It is with great sadness that we inform you of Del’s passing following a short illness. He is lovingly remembered by his wife and constant companion Eileen and his children Charles (Sandy), Jacqui and Elaine (Darrell) as well as his grandchildren Emily, Cassie, Mary and Natasha. He is also fondly remembered by his brother Sherman (Elaine), Cousin Isabelle (Jane), Brother-in- Law Niall (Christina), Myrna and relatives in Prince George. He was born in Vernon, BC and spent his childhood in Alberta. He worked in Northern, BC where he drove trucks and worked in carpentry. The family moved to Kamloops in 1974 where he worked at Tranquille and then drove City Bus until his retirement. His enjoyment in life was being with the family, camping, fishing, bowling, BBQing and socializing with his friends. He enjoyed watching his grandchildren play sports although he himself never had any interest or knowledge of any of the games. Our family would like to thank the Royal Inland Hospital’s doctors and nurses who cared for him during his short illness. They gave us great comfort and were very supportive. Due to Covid-19 protocols a funeral will be held at O.L.P.H with immediate family only

My cousin Del was one of nicest men I know. His quick wit and wicked sense of humour lit up any gathering that was graced with his presence. He passionately cared for his family and friends, and, of course, his beloved Shilo. Playing cribbage with Del was a lessen in embracing life with love and laughter. Watching him engage life was an awesome experience. I will miss him as I might a brother (who also loved him dearly).
Rest In Peace Del.
With love,
Isabelle and Jane
