HAVER, LELANND (March 6,1932 - June 16,2015) You have shown us how to tread when there are no more choices left! "To hold on when there is nothing left in you except the will that says hold on" (Kipling). We watched your bravery, your resolve, your clarity when the promise of the operation withered before us. We heard, felt, and witnessed your inner honesty as you revealed and balanced the books of your mind and soul, carefully examining them 'til there was nothing left to see. We watched and listened as you spoke, even when your voice and focus wavered, as you faced the game of accountability, acceptance, and forgiveness in your final days. We learned from you, lessons indescribable, as you nobly journeyed through your departing process and transition into silence. In all that he did Lelannd endevoured to live a responsible, constructive and meaningful life. He had a humane concern for all humanity. He loved the classics: music, art, dance and literature. He was at home in the philosophical world and stood for causes that might otherwise have destroyed our way of life. In his early years he worked in the broadcasting (radio) industry and, until he retired, in the hospitality industry as a consulting and purchasing specialist. He is survived by his wife, Airaca, and relatives across Canada and the United States. He will be sadly missed by all those who knew him and loved him. Cremation arrangements in care of Everden Rust Funeral Services (250) 860-6440.
