Ronald Brownridge
1945-2020
It is with heavy hearts that the family of Ronald Brownridge
announce his peaceful passing on November 4, 2020, at the Dr. Everett
Chalmers Hospital at the age of 75. Ron was born in
Kelvington, SK on May 13, 1945 and was the son of Cyrus and Clarice
Brownridge.
Ron is survived by his loving wife, Helen; children, Scott
(Ellen) and Shawna (Jeff) Kirkbride; grandchildren Kade, Anna, Kael
and Natalie; several nieces and nephews. Ron was
particularly close to his niece Kim Weir, nephew Andrew Lake and
brother-in-law Bill Lake. Ron will also be deeply missed by
his sister, Dorothy, brother-in-law Ronny Schreeuwer and their four
sons who live in Israel. Not to be forgotten are his beloved
cats, Charlie and Missy.
Besides his parents, Ron was predeceased by brother, Warren;
sister-in-law Karen Lake; niece Kelly Lake; and cherished cat,
Murphy.
Ron joined the army when he was 16 and served for 29 years in
the Armoured Corps (RCD). After retiring, he worked with the
Militia for a few years, then spent his time fishing, hunting with
good friend Rick, woodworking, watching his granddaughters swim and
his grandsons play hockey, and travelling the world with Helen.
The family would like to extend a special thanks to
the nurses at the Oromocto Public Hospital who took such good care of
Ron. A special thank you goes out to nurse Doug at the DECH
for his kindness and compassion in Ron’s last few
hours. Thank you to The Venerable John Sharpe for his
comforting words and prayers.

request, there will be no visitation, a service will take place at the
Oromocto Funeral Home Chapel on Saturday, November 7th, 2020 at
