Wayne Gordon Wall of Kamloops, BC passed away on February 14th, 2023 at the age of 79 years, after a sudden and brief battle with multiple cancers.
To cherish his memory, he leaves behind his son, Duane (Hannah) Wall of Victoria, BC, two grandchildren, his mother, Martha Wall of Herbert, Saskatchewan, his siblings Ray (Carol) Wall, Pam (James) Klassen, and Arlene (Lawrence) Lansberry, as well as many nieces and nephews.
He was predeceased by his father, John Wall, his son, Kelsey Wall, and his siblings, Judy Wall and Pat Erikson, as well as his former wife and mother of his children, Barbara Ann Wall.
Wayne was born in Swift Current, Saskatchewan and spent most of his childhood in Herbert, Saskatchewan. He eventually moved to BC and settled in Kamloops, where he lived the rest of his life. He had a great love of cars, motorcycles, and driving in general, and played a lot of pool in between. He worked most of his life as a mechanic, including running his own shop for a time, and didn’t quite know how to retire, working as a driver for a car rental agency until his passing. He recently took a motorcycle trip in October and continued to play pool regularly, remaining very close friends with some of his lucky fellow riders and pool players, and the people he met through them.
A memorial service will be held at St. Andrew’s on the Square, on March 11, 2023, at 1:00 pm in Kamloops, BC
