1936 – June 23, 2024    

Ranjit Singh Baines, known affectionately as Randy, passed away peacefully at the age of 87 on June 23, 2024, in Kamloops, British Columbia. 

Randy’s passionate spirit is carried on by his wife, Chinnama (Gina); their two sons, Anil (Janice) and Ajay (Harjoyt) and grandchildren Mila, Alea and Loic. 

Randy immigrated to Canada from India in 1959 and will be remembered as a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend. 

Randy has built many connections in Kamloops having lived there for 55 years. He lived a very full and accomplished life and will be remembered for his giving and hard-working nature. 

He loved competing in track and field and weightlifting growing up and continued to demonstrate that passion in his life and job, with his incredible endurance and work ethic. He was relentless – second to none. 

He loved watching his sons play sports. He was Ajay’s number one hockey fan. 

He was always the first one up in the morning ready for what the day would bring. Enthusiastic, fiery and always ready – he never backed down from any challenge that the world presented to him. He believed that anything was possible in life. 

“Though we mourn our loss, we honor the amazing life you lived”. 

 To honor Randy’s memory, a service will be held at the Kamloops Alliance Church on Saturday, July 6, at 1:00 p.m. 

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Kamloops Hospice Association.
