Predeceased by wife Violet (2001) and parents Margaret and John, he is survived by his son Steven, daughter Barb (Stefan), grandsons Sam, Mattias, and Joel, granddaughter Sofia, and his sister Esther (Bill). His faith and his love for his wife carried him home in peace. Special thanks to Dr. Carol Pfefferkorn for her many years of attention to our dad. He will be missed by many.
