We are sad to announce Reg’s passing on December 20, 2022. He died peacefully in his sleep in the RGH at the age of 98. He was predeceased by his wife Win after 66 years together and his son Michael. He will be remembered fondly by his children Larry, Cathy (Wayne Cox) and Valerie (Paul Cownden) as well as his 7 grandchildren: Katelyn, Brian, Michael, Leanne, Jennifer, Andrew and Sarah and 5 great grandchildren: Hayden, Gwen, Paisley, Ireland and Briar.
Reg was active in the Victoria community with his involvement for many years in the Junior Chamber of Commerce, Superintendent of Oak Bay United Church Sunday school. His favorite pastimes included square-dancing, fishing and playing bridge. He worked for Northwestern Creamery, Silverwood Dairy and Island Farms and developed many friendships at work and among his business clients. It was his passion to help local businesses grow and prosper. After retiring from the dairy business he and his partners purchased Wilson Foods and he developed it from a small grocery supplier to one of the largest on Vancouver Island. He retired from this second career at the age of 90 having made many friends of employees and store owners. Many of their children grew up thinking of him as ‘Uncle Reg’. He will be fondly remembered by those in his men’s coffee group who he met with almost every day until shortly before his passing.
We would like to express our appreciation to Doctor Sundren Govender and the staff at RJH who cared for him until the end. Also, sincere thanks to his caregivers Ermalyn and Jonathan who worked so hard to make him comfortable for the last few years. A special thanks to all his friends who served and played with him at Elements. They went to great lengths to help him enjoy one of his favorite pastimes over the last few years; right up to a week before he passed away.
A celebration of Reg’s life will be held in the Sequoia Centre at McCall Gardens, 4665 Falaise Drive, on Friday, January 20th 2023 from 2-4pm.
Condolences may be offered to the family below.
