Oliver worked for NCR (National Cash Register) for 31 years. He loved camping and spent the last 30 years at the Stonewall Quarry Park Campground. During the winter months, Oliver spent weekends snowmobiling with friends. After retiring, Oliver and Helen spent many winters in California and Arizona. They looked forward to the warm weather and connecting with friends from home.
A celebration of his life will be held at 2:00 pm. Thursday, September 5, 2019 at 603 Wellington Crescent at Academy Road (Unitarian Church).
Our sincere thank you to the wonderful, and very caring, “earth angels” who provided a very loving experience to Oliver and his family.
In lieu of flowers, if friends so wish, memorial contributions to Grace Hospice at 260 Booth Drive, Winnipeg, MB R3J 3R5, would be greatly appreciated by the family.
