After 91 wonderful years our father, grandad, teammate, and friend peacefully passed on July 30, 2022, in Comox, BC. He will be dearly missed by his children Bruce (Judy), Jane, and Ross (Kimberly), his grandchildren Tayler, Lauren, and Jamison, and extended family in Vancouver, Alberta, and Oregon.

Born in Vancouver, he attended Britannia High School and UBC (BCom 1955) where he captained the varsity rugby team, eventually earning a place in the UBC Big Block Club. Upon graduation he joined the Hudson Bay Company, where he worked for 34 years in various management positions in Vancouver and Montreal. He married his high school sweetheart Audrey Butler in 1959, and they would go on to raise a family over 35 years.

Upon retirement in 1991, he took his dream trip to 26 Major League Baseball stadiums with long-time pal Doug Davis, and always had a special place in his heart for the Montreal Expos and Toronto Blue Jays. He was a fixture at the North Shore Winter Club well into his eighties and loved playing bridge with his HBC friends. He could also be found at the Knight & Day restaurant with his ex-Britannia Rugby pals and playing cards and travelling to California, Mexico, and the Caribbean with long-time companion Yvonne Hughes.
