We celebrate the life and cherish the memory of our beloved Father, who has passed away.

Our Dad lived his life with quiet strength, wisdom, patience and humility. His calm presence brought comfort to those around him. He listened with an open heart, offering understanding, encouragement, and steady guidance whenever it was needed. His words were always measured, thoughtful and sincere.

He was a devoted husband who cared lovingly for our mother throughout her illness. Never complaining or asking for help. He was a rock for us all, especially our sister after she fell ill. He gave of himself freely, never seeking recognition, simply because that is who he was.

We will miss his gentle presence, his thoughtful advice, and the unwavering support he gave so generously. And though our hearts are heavy, we find great comfort in the warm gentle breeze, the sound of the morning birds, the beauty of a glorious sunset, the memory of his smile and the knowledge that the love he gave so freely will remain with us forever.

Donations in his memory may be made to the Red Lake Margaret Cochenour Hospital Foundation or Auxiliary through the Red Lake Chapel, Box 237, Red Lake, ON P0V 2M0.
