BRUCE - George Douglas 1942 - 2011 We announce with deep sorrow that George died suddenly of a heart attack, hiking with friends. Dearly loved and much cherished husband to Marie and father to his three children - Deirdre (Troy), Derek (Rhea) and James and his only sister Lindsay (Jeremy). George was born in Dundee, Scotland and came to Canada in 1966 to seek powder skiing. He worked as a ski patrol in the early years of Whistler and this is where he met his wife Marie in 1967. They were married in 1969 and settled down to raise their three children. He was a complete family man who had his priorities right. George lived his life with kindness, patience and a keen sense of humor. He was a compassionate man and always had time for people, especially his family whom he adored. He had a deep appreciation for the outdoors and loved to hike, kayak, snowshoe and ski. George worked for BC Hydro for 35 years and upon retiring he pursued his love of music, travel, and the arts. George and Marie spent the last 8 years of his life travelling and walking all over Europe and distant places. George will be forever missed, as he was one of nature’s gentlemen. Memorial service will be held 2:00 pm, Tuesday, January 25th at Highlands United Church, 3255 Edgemont Boulevard, North Vancouver. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the North Shore Rescue.
MACNEAL - Gerald Edward June 23rd 1936 – December 30th 2010. It is with profound sadness that we announce Gerry’s passing. Gerry is predeceased by his younger brother Larry just six weeks earlier on November 11th 2010. He is survived by his loving wife of 49 yrs., Audrey, his children Mike (Rose), Leslie (Mark), and his three Grandchildren, Tyson, Ryan and Jessica, as well as many other family members in BC and Alberta. Gerry also leaves behind many friends who will miss “going for a coffee” or ”meeting at the shop”. Gerry was very well known and respected in the Shooting community and made no apologies for his passion of hunting and shooting. In 2002 Gerry received a heart transplant and we will be forever grateful for the extra eight years with him that amazing gift gave us. We would like to thank the Doctors and Nurses at St. Paul’s Hospital for all their care over the last eight years as well as the Staff of the Palliative Care unit at Lions Gate Hospital for their care and compassion in his last days. In lieu of flowers a donation to the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be appreciated, also please register to be an organ donor. A celebration of life will be held at Cheers in North Van on January 29th from 2 pm to 4 pm. Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, Love leaves memories no one can steal.

RIDDLE - Jacqueline Cora (nee Poff) Born November 28th, 1929 Lloydminster, Alberta. Our wonderful Jacquie 'Mom' 'Grandma' passed away peacefully, surrounded by her loving family in her West Vancouver home on January 21st, 2011. Jacqueline married the love of her life Richard Wilton Riddle in 1950. They were blessed with four children and settled in Jasper, Alberta. Jacqueline and Richard moved their family to Edmonton and eventually Calgary. Jacquie busied herself with the joys of being a mother and wife. After suffering the devastating loss of her beloved Richard in 1978, Jacquie followed her adult children via Kelowna to Vancouver. Jacquie’s devotion to her ever expanding family was without boundaries. Her children and grandchildren were always enveloped in a blanket of positive thinking and love. Jacquie loved to laugh and her warm sense of humor touched and enriched the lives of all those who knew her. She delighted in the adventures of her grandchildren and most recently her great grandson Jackson! Above all else Jacqueline Cora Riddle was proud to be a mother. The whole world will be a little brighter now that Jacquie’s star is shining from heaven. Jacquie, Mom, Grandma, will be remembered and forever missed by her children Susan (Daryl) , Debra (Brian), David (Pixie), Laureen (Mike) as well as her grandchildren Natalie (Jeff), Adrien, Tyler, McKenzie, Mason, Claire, Max, Sydney, Georgia, Spencer and great grandson Jackson. In lieu of flowers, if friends desire, please make a donation to either the Covenant House Vancouver or the S.P.C.A.
Inga Radosevic (Randi Inga Hvam)
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Inga on the evening of January 20, 2011 at Lions Gate Hospital with her loved ones by her side. During her more than four year journey dealing with ovarian cancer, Inga constantly demonstrated the courage, strength, and grace with which she lived her whole life. Inga’s unshaken faith gave her absolute peace and understanding, and she had made all the preparations necessary to close this chapter of her life without fear or regret. Just as she did in her 43 years, Inga’s passing has inspired us to believe in the power of love and grace, the importance of family, and the need to live with gratitude and patience. Inga was a wonderful and loving mother to Kristen and Lauren and best friend to husband Chris, with whom she shared 25 wonderful years. Inga lost her sister Sonia and father Helle to cancer in recent years, and she deeply missed their presence in her life. The love she shared with her mother Ellen Hvam, her brother Norm Hvam, and nephew Alexander McGuigan was unwavering, and these relationships meant the world to her. Chris’ family has been a constant source of support and love over the years, and especially at this difficult time. Everyone who met or knew Inga instantly knew how blessed she felt to have such a close and loving family. Inga was always kind and warm, and very generous with her time; she had a glowing smile that lit up any room she entered. Inga was a calming presence to everyone, yet she had a great sense of social responsibility and justice, supporting many worthy causes without fanfare or the need to be recognized. Inga was a special and amazing woman in all her roles: wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend to so many. Her gift to the world lives on through her beautiful daughters, and through everyone who carries her spirit in their hearts. Inga made many great friends in her life who will continue to be a source of strength and comfort to her family; the school community of St. Anthony’s in West Vancouver has been especially supportive and giving and the family is forever grateful. Inga graduated from the pharmacy program at UBC in 1990 and truly enjoyed and flourished in that field. She was always friendly and helpful to all the patients she assisted over the years and her expertise was appreciated by her colleagues. The family would like to thank Dr. Pippa Hawley and Dr. Jennifer Walker, Inga’s home care nurse Catherine Jarvis, as well as all the nurses and staff at the LGH Palliative Care Ward for their kindness and compassion. A Vigil Prayers and service will be held on Thursday, January 27, 2011 at 8:00 p.m. at Christ the Redeemer Catholic Church, 595 West Keith Road, West Vancouver. A Funeral Mass will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, January 28, 2011 at Christ the Redeemer. Messages of condolence can be offered to the family at www.kearneyfs.com. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations to the Gynecological Oncology Group at the BC Cancer Agency would be greatly appreciated.
