Born January 23, 1932 and passed away peacefully on May 22, 2015 at home surrounded by family. He was predeceased by his daughter Heather Ann, his parents Ken and Lenore and his sister Rea Banister. Left to mourn are his loving wife of 60 years Ruby, his children Cecile (Les), Brenda (Randy), Linden (Darla), Stanley (Joanne), his many grandchildren and great grandchildren, brother Clair (Pat), sister Dale and many nieces and nephews.
Dad was born in Arrowwood, AB and grew up and lived in Alberta and B.C. His career revolved around lumber and the sawmills. He loved the bush, camping and fishing. Travelling the logging roads up into the mountains looking for a remote lake to catch the big fish was his passion.
In his later years Dad was very involved with his church and his friends in the neighbourhood. He loved to scoot around on his scooter and did not let his mobility issues slow him down.
The family would like to give a heartfelt thank you to the many tireless nurses, aides and the palliative care team who came in to give excellent loving care to Dad and to Mom over the past few months.
A celebration of Don
