Obituary for
Eduard Spehar
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of a good man Eduard Špehar. He was a dedicated husband, a loving father, grandfather, and great grandfather. He died peacefully in his sleep on November 11th, 2020 in Strathroy, ON.
He is survived by his wife of 64 years, Branka Špehar (nee Murn), his children Visnja (Mark) Scripnick , Miro (Anne) Spehar, his cherished grandchildren Nova (Matt) Ashby, Astra (Akiff) Scripnick, Raili (Johnny) Barabas, Mikka (Danielle) Spehar, Ivo Spehar, and his beloved great grandchildren Rhylan, Corah, Jasper and Zuri.
He survived great and harrowing ordeals during, and after the Second World War that haunted him his entire life. But the love for his family, and a love of the arts kept the light shining bright in his eyes. He was ever amazed at the beauty, complexity and wonder of the world around him. This gave him great comfort knowing with absolute certainty that there was something bigger than himself, and bigger than all of us, and that all would be well when it was his time to move on.
Due to Covid-19, the family has chosen to have a private family service at LESSARD-STEPHENS FUNERAL HOME. Interment will follow at Timmins Memorial Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, remembrance donation to Father Les Costello Foundation or warchild.ca would be greatly appreciated. Online condolences or donations can be made at www.lessardstephens.com
When a great man dies, for years the light he leaves behind him, lies on the paths of men
