His children Kathleen (Gary) Miller, Allen (Diana), David (Barbara), Bill (Saraphene)and Janette. 12 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren.

Dad was a millwright by trade, working at various mills in B.C .before settling at Crofton until his retirement. He enjoyed hunting, fishing and camping later on taking up photography. He liked to travel and enjoyed many camping trips at Quadra Island with his family .Dads daily routine included a trip to the coffee shop to visit friends.

The family is extremely grateful to the staff at the Lodge for their exceptional care. They allowed dad to keep his dignity, pride and sense of humor to the end.
