Parcourez la nécrologie de Herbert Sadorski 1938 – résidant dans la province Colombie britanique pour le détail des funérailles
It is with deep sadness that the Sadorski family announces the passing of Herbert Sadorski of Kamloops at the age of 84. Herb is survived by his wife of 63 years Lee, his son Shane, daughter-in-law Catharine, and his siblings Roy, Adolph, Joe, and Andy. He is predeceased by his son David, daughter Sheryl, father and mother Joseph and Ida, and siblings Sadie, Vic, Emil, and Linda.
Herb was born on a farm near Roblin, Manitoba, and spent his early youth there before moving with his family to the Okanagan Valley. After marrying Lee in 1960, the young couple settled in Kamloops in 1962 to raise their family, first in the Cherry Creek area and later in Brocklehurst.
Herb spent most of his life proudly earning a living for his family through physical labour, both skilled and unskilled. He was at various points in his life a young fruit-picker in the Okanagan, a faller and truck driver in the forest industry, a small-scale farmer, a sawmill worker at Savona, an active union member with the International Woodworkers of America, culminating in a long career as a skilled tradesman in residential construction. No matter the work, Herb always took great care in the job he did and had great pride in his life as a blue-collar worker.
An avid hunter and fisher, Herb treasured his time in the bush and excelled as an outdoorsman. For him, camping was never just camping, it was a reconnection with the wilderness he loved. And just as importantly, he loved sharing the stories he brought back from these trips. A magnificent conversationalist, he would always talk up a storm, whether it was hanging around with his pals in a beer parlour in his younger days or just chatting with his neigbours over the fence. Even a simple trip to the mall invariably involved Herb running into an old pal, resulting in a chat of at least twenty minutes, usually ending with him explaining how the latest right-wing government was screwing over the working man. He was in conversation just as he was in the bush — a straight-shooter.
Heartbreakingly, in the last year of his life a combination of Parkinson’s-related dementia and a series of strokes would rob him of his beautiful gift of conversation. During this very difficult time, Herb and our family were aided by a throng of caring health-care professionals and allied workers. Our family would like to extend our deepest appreciation to our dedicated and long-standing nurse practitioner Jacki Giggs, the wonderful paramedics and ambulance personnel who so quickly responded to our call for help on Christmas day, the compassionate ER crew at RIH, the amazing people of the GT8 stroke unit and the 6 North recovery ward, the transition liaisons and social workers, and the lovely people at Gemstone Care Centre who so delicately cared for Herb and our family as he gradually left us. Words cannot begin to express how deeply grateful we are to you all.
Our family would also like to thank all of our friends and neighbours on Crestline Street and Ryan Place who looked out for us over the years. Your generosity is truly overwhelming.
A modest man to the end, Herb specifically requested no funeral or similar event be held on his passing. Instead, our family asks that he be remembered through donations made to an organization of your choice conducting research into Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s disease, cancer research, to the RIH Foundation, or to wilderness conservation.
And be sure to raise a glass in his memory from time to time while Herb waits patiently for you to join him in that big beer parlour in the sky.
