Steve Gibson

Tribute

September, 1939 – August, 2026

After a long battle with Parkinson’s Disease, Steve passed away at home at the age of 86. He was predeceased by his parents, Bill and Mary Gibson and his sister, Connie.

As a lifelong resident of the Cowichan Valley, Steve worked in forestry, first as a contract logger and later as a faller for MacMillan Bloedel, Shawnigan Division. Steve was a hard working person who built four of the homes he and Marlene shared. Steve enjoyed camping and fishing with his family and many friends. After retiring at the age of 55, he and Marlene spent many winters in Arizona where they met many lifelong friends.

He will be missed every day by his wife of 65 years Marlene, his daughters Brenda (Jim) and Laurie, his grandchildren Amanda (Jen), Karyn (Nathan), Mary and Sarah, his great grandchildren Preston and Benson, niece Sandra (Gene) and nephew Tony (Stacey).

Please join us for a gathering of family and friends to celebrate Steve’s life on Saturday, September 5th from 2 to 4 pm at Steve and Marlene’s home in Glenora.
