Allan passed away July 18, 2012 in Kamloops, B.C.

He was predeceased by his loving wife Darlene in 2002 and his Dad Leon in 2007.

Al is survived by his loving daughters Trina (Rick) of Vernon and Charlene (Scott) of Terrace. He sadly leaves behind grandchildren Taura, Todd, Jordanna and Braeden whom he adored. He will be missed by his Mom Marge, his sister Carol; brothers Ron, Lane, Brian and Gord. Al also cherished his friendships with his in-laws and many friends.

Al had a lifetime career in welding, which he perfected. No job needed to be done twice! He enjoyed many happy years on his farm; he especially loved working with his cattle. He never had a dull moment with all his animals. He also found great pleasure watching his grandchildren on the farm.

Al loved the outdoors. He really enjoyed fishing and hunting. He cherished many hunting trips and all his hunting partners he went with (you know who you are). He always had a good time camping and had fun sitting around the campfire sharing stories with family and friends.

Memories will be shared with family and friends, where he spent many hours and walked many miles in the field, 464 Turtle Valley Road, Chase, B.C., on Sunday, July 22 at 11:00 a.m.

Thank you to all the Nurses in ICU at Royal Inland Hospital.

All the memories will be honored.

Arrangements are entrusted to Schoening Funeral Services 250-374-1454.
