PETER GEORGE NETHERWAY
1942 — 2024
Born April 17, 1942, in Windsor, Ontario, and passed away on January 3, 2024, in Kamloops, BC. It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Peter George Netherway on Wednesday, January 3, 2024, at Royal Inland Hospital, Kamloops, British Columbia. Pete was born in Windsor, Ontario, the beloved son of the late George & Simone (Lacas) Netherway.
Pete is survived by his loving wife of 51 years, Gina (Dawn Higgins) Netherway, of Kamloops, BC. He is also survived by his daughter Tobi (Monty) and granddaughter Kodi, son Chad, son Paul and granddaughter Chloe from Shorts Lake, Nova Scotia. Additionally, Pete is survived by his beloved sister and brother-in-law, Suzanne and Bill Lancaster, along with nephews Ross (deceased), Brian (Lori Ann), John (Patricia), Peter (Jodie), Garner (Lyndsay), Parker (Kim), nieces Rhonda (Bob), Donna (Michael), Laura (Steven), and many grandnieces and nephews. He is also survived by brother-in-law Jim Higgins, nephews Troy (Wendy), Drew (Heather), nieces Tracy and Courtney (Shaun), and grandnieces and nephews.
Pete graduated from RCMP Depot in Regina, Saskatchewan, at age 19 and was posted in Truro, Nova Scotia. He traveled extensively with transfers across Canada, finally settling in Kamloops, BC. He earned his Bachelor of Arts with Honors remotely through the University of Manitoba while running the Detachment in The Pas, Manitoba. Pete worked for Migratory Birds and, along with Bob Teather, started the Manitoba RCMP Underwater Dive Team. After 35 years with the RCMP, he retired as an Inspector and served as the CEO of Kamloops Crimestoppers for 10 years.
He was an avid fisherman, hunter, diver, golfer, skier, snowmobiler, baseball enthusiast, motorcyclist, and swimmer. He was affiliated with the local Masonic Lodge, a Rotarian, drove the Cancer Car, worked as a logging truck driver, and loved singing with a beautiful voice. Pete was larger than life and enriched the lives of everyone he touched. He and Gina enjoyed weekly drives, dining out, admiring views, and sharing pictures until his mobility declined.
They spent winters in Palm Desert and part of summers at the family cottage in Nova Scotia until Covid restricted their activities. The family acknowledges all the doctors, nurses, and care aides at Overlander, Ponderosa, and RIH who provided exceptional care and love.
A Celebration of Life will be held on April 17, 2024 (Pete’s 82nd Birthday) from 2 – 4 pm at a location to be determined. The event will be streamed so those unable to attend can view the webcast and archive it for delayed viewing. There will also be an option to download the event to DVD for a permanent keepsake.
