Obituary of Stephen Michael Soll
It is with profound sadness that we announce the death of Stephen Michael Soll on September 25, 2022. He was surrounded by members of his immediate family.
Stephen was predeceased by his parents Marvin and Gwen Soll. He leaves behind his beloved family: wife of 48 years, Sandi, son Chris and daughter Jenn, as well as his daughter-in-law, Aachal, son-in-law Andrew and grandchildren Lachlan, Asha, Emerson and Owen. He is survived by his sisters Darlene, Lynn and Janice, and their families.
Stephen graduated from the University of BC with a BA in Political Science in 1974, and a Law degree in 1977.
In 1977 Stephen started his law career in Dawson Creek. In 1988 he moved to Kamloops with his family and started his own firm: Soll and Company. He was later joined in this practice by his son and daughter-in-law.
An accomplished and formidable litigator, he was humble about his life’s accomplishments. Stephen is remembered for his attention to detail, his wisdom, the integrity of his counsel and his quiet and kind demeanour … punctuated by the occasional profanity.
Stephen had a lifelong enthusiasm for travel with his wife and children. He loved skiing, gardening and his grandchildren. He was a passionate and deeply knowledgeable follower of Canadian, American and international politics. He had a reasoned but concerned perspective on our collective future, a future that he hoped would be more just and generous. His was a life well-lived, and he will be deeply missed.
In lieu of flowers, a donation to cancer care or research would be appreciated.
The family would like to extend a special thank you to the caring doctors and nurses at the Kamloops and Kelowna Cancer Clinics, Community Care Nurses, Doctors Sigalet, Ewart and Mohamed.
A Celebration of Stephen’s life will be held at his home on October 15 between 2PM and 5PM.
