VERVYNCK, RAYMOND (Ray) Rene
It is with great sorrow we say goodbye to our dear
husband and father, Raymond Vervynck. Ray passed away
surrounded by loving family on October 5, 2009, at the age of 79 years.
He leaves to mourn his loss, his wife Deanna, their 4
children, Ed Vervynck (Judy) of Salmon Arm, Judy Deets of Langley, Terri Vervynck of Kelowna, Raylene van den Adel (Ron) of Kelowna and a grandson, Julian Deets
of Surrey. Raymond was born in Edmonton AB moving at an early age to Revelstoke, BC where he married, raised his family while working in the forest industry as a
logger and saw- miller. During his retirement he
became a talented artisan creating many beautiful works in wood and iron. As an avid gardener, Ray grew many specialty flowers and plants which were the envy of all. He enjoyed hockey, remaining a true Toronto Maple Leaf's fan and Kelowna Rockets season ticket holder.
Age was just a number to Ray and he will be
remembered for his zest for life, striking silver hair, rosy complexion and warm smile.
All are welcome to attend a Memorial Service celebrating Ray's life on Saturday, October 24th 2009 1:00 pm at
