Eero was born in Ylistro, Finland and immigrated to Canada in 1957 living in Thunder Bay and Oshawa, ON before moving to Salmon Arm, BC in 1974.  They resided there until moving to Kamloops in 1989.  Eero was a Deacon of the Seventh Day Adventist Church and volunteered with the construction of numerous churches.  Eero owned his own construction and siding business working well into his 70’s.  He built three of his own houses.  He was an avid hockey fan.  A good way to summarize his interests:  “Gone Hunting … and when I’m Back, Gone Fishing!”
