We are heartbroken to announce the sudden passing of our beloved after a short but courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. We were so incredibly lucky to have shared the time we had with him as he filled our lives with humour and love. He is survived by his pride and joy for 31 years, daughter Heather (Jeremy), his mother Emma and wife of 42 years, Maureen, as well as many extended family members. He is preceded in death by his sister Roswitha.

 

Hubert was a devoted fan of the Winnipeg Jets, Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the Toronto Blue Jays and treasured the times he was able to cheer them on in person. He enjoyed many years of camping at Falcon Lake and Hecla, golfing and barbequing for the family. He was always the first to lend a hand when anyone needed help.

 

We wish to thank the staff at Victoria Hospital Urgent Care, Vascular Surgeons and GB3 staff at HSC and the Palliative Care team at Riverview Centre who gave Hubert the best of care. We also want to thank family, friends, neighbors and the staff at Hubert’s employer, Centre Flavie for their support and kindness.

 

In lieu of a formal memorial service, Hubert’s wish was for each of us to remember and celebrate his life in their own private way.

 

Woody, we will miss you so very much as you were taken from us far, far too soon.
