Our community of Nanoose Bay has lost an amazing man, father, husband, son, brother, uncle and friend. I think that we all can agree that he has left us with many gifts. 

Ward always had time to banter and solve world problems around the campfire, at a coffee shop or on the golf course.  He took the time to listen.  He had a knack for seeing what others didn't.  This gentle giant will be sorely missed.

He elevated and celebrated all others' strengths with his optimistic nature, especially the strengths of Shelly, Kent and Brett.  Most recently of the boys each making it to rep hockey teams and the success of Shelly's recent golfing achievements.

Ward will be missed in the stands of the arenas while watching his boys play hockey, as a coach and advisor and a cheerleader.  

A great way to honour what meant most to Ward would be for us to all gather around Shelly, Kent and Brett.  To surround them with as much love and support as possible during this difficult time.

These funds will help Shelly and the boys during a transition into the unknown.  We trust that Shelly will put these donations to good use in keeping her family healthy and happy.
