Peter Arthur Deakin

Peter Arthur Deakin, 81, died peacefully Friday, August 4, 2017 at Ridge Meadows Hospital following a short illness.

He leaves his wife of 53 years, Janis; his two sons, Stephen Deakin (Lynn) and Anthony Deakin (Carolyn), and his two grandchildren Tanner and Kaitlyn as well as many loving friends and neighbors.

Born and raised in Birmingham, England, the son of Victor & Lilian Deakin, and brother of Dorothy (Stan) Wheway and Maisie (Gavin) Queen.

Peter was an avid gardener and also enjoyed his life, cycling, fishing with his 2 mates from Chilliwack, camping, crabbing & creating inventions from items most people would call junk.

He always had a relaxed look on life and would also say “Ah it’s alright” ”Don’t worry about it” and “Hang on a minute”.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the BC Childrens’ Hospital.
