1945 – 2017

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our husband, father, brother, grandfather and friend. Ron was born April 11th 1945 and died suddenly on April 24th, 2017 at the age of 72. Ron met his soulmate, Heidi Hajer, at Abbotsford High School in the fall of 1962. They soon married in 1965. After starting his teaching career in Kamloops, Ron accepted a principal position in Revelstoke. There they raised their two children Daryl and Colin for 25 years. He greatly enjoyed his career, especially working with children. He is fondly remembered for his unconditional love, sense of humour, and endless support for his family in all their endeavours.

Ron is survived by his loving wife Heidi, his two sons Daryl (Freya) and Colin (Lisa) his two bothers Gordon (Beth) and Douglas (Audrey) and his grandchildren Tierney (Matt), Kristen, Natasha (Chad), Grayson, Aleah (Josh) and Rachel.

A Celebration of Life will be held at 2:00 pm on Wednesday, May 3rd at Summit Drive Church, 1975 Summit Drive, Kamloops.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Ron’s name to Mennonite Central Committee Relief Fund (MCC).
