Alvin “Al” MacEachern - September 24, 1949 to November 6, 2011 - It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear friend and companion, Al MacEachern, at Kelowna General Hospital on November 6th 2011. Al grew up in Kentville, Nova Scotia, where he leaves behind his nephew Trevor and family, and many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. He lived in Vancouver for many years before moving to Kelowna with his long time companion, Patricia Day. We would like to thank Dr. Alan Broome and his staff, the doctors and nurses of Kelowna General Hospital, and the staff of Valley Medical Labs for their great care during Al’s last illness; and the management and staff of Callahan Property Management Group and Colliers International for their kindness and support. Al did not want a funeral or a service, but asked that his ashes be taken “somewhere beautiful, near the water”. Condolences may be sent to the family at www.valleyviewfuneralhome.com. Arrangements entrusted to Valleyview Funeral Home, Kelowna, BC 250-765-3147.
