Wilfred George Bishop
Date de naissance : 7 novembre 1919
Date de décès : 18 avril 2017
Wilf passed away peacefully on Tuesday, April 18, at the age of 97. Born in Stephenville Crossing, NL, to Edward and Emma Bishop, Wilf joined a very large family. As a young man, he and his father established a successful lumber business, which Wilf maintained for his entire working life. Once he sold the business later in life, he and wife Florence moved to the west coast, eventually settling in Nanaimo, BC. A man of great kindness, humility, and humour, Wilf will be lovingly remembered by his many family members and friends. Although an astute businessman, he possessed a sweet and gentle heart. Wilf was predeceased by his beloved wife, Florence, in 2005. A celebration of Wilf's life will be held at a later date in Nanaimo, BC.
