August 1, 1939 - December 22, 2022
In loving memory ~
Dave Passed away peacefully at home after a brief illness surrounded by his loving family.
Survived by his wife of 61 years Doreen and children Cory (Jim) Kral, Tammy (Ric) Raynor, and Shane (Tracey) Lassam; grandchildren Zac (Dakota) and Matt Kral, Rebecca (Kyle), Terry, Brittany (Zac) and Everett Raynor, Devon and Jayda Lassam; nephews Jim (Shelly) Lassam, Gerry (Erica) Clarke, Don (Margaret) and David Finnson; as well as other much loved extended family.
Dave lived his entire life on the farm in Cedar that his grandfather bought in 1917. We have lost a generous man who would share his time and vast knowledge of farming, equipment, antique cars and Cedar history with anyone who needed it.
Dave loved nothing more than a good story and laughter. He loved his family, his friends and his cows. He will be missed by all who knew him. He was not particularly fond of flowers, but a good bale of hay would be in order.
Special thanks to Dr. Borbandy for her kindness and caring.
A celebration of Dave's life will be held on February 4th, 2023, at the Cedar Community Hall (Speedway Hall), 2388 Cedar Road, Nanaimo, B.C., from 1:00 - 4:00 p.m.
