With profound sadness, we announce the peaceful passing of Bertrand following a short and brave fight against lung cancer. Bert was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather whose kindness and quiet strength touched many lives.
He was predeceased by his parents, two older sisters, and his cherished daughter Julie. He is survived by his devoted wife Nancy; his children John (Tammy), Ron (Nikki), Rick (Mandi), and Alanna; his five siblings; grandchildren Brandi (Josh), Brandon, Brenna, Lucas (Emma), Kayden (Camryn), Marley, and Ruby; and great-grandchildren Elliott, Charlotte, and Mariposa.
Bert was born in Calgary, Alberta in 1941. He served in the Canadian Armed Forces in his late teens and early twenties, then started his own drywalling business. Bert moved to Salmon Arm in 1977 from the Lower Mainland. Later, he pursued further education to become a certified R.V. Technician and proudly founded Tri Crown RV. He was a skilled craftsman who found joy in building, repairing, and fishing—always happiest with tools in hand or on the water in his boat with his family.
Bert will be remembered for his gentle spirit, his dedication to family, and his unwavering work ethic. He loved helping others and is missed immensely. His legacy lives on in the lives he shaped and the memories he leaves behind.
As per his wishes, there will be no funeral. Donations in Bert’s name can be made to the BC Cancer Society or the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
