Obituary

Gerald Pitney passed away in Red Deer on December 15th at the age of 76.

Born in Vancouver, August 12, 1948, Gerry was a very resourceful man starting his own business as a drywaller in Valemount BC. He raised his family here, during this time he was an avid hunter and fisherman. He did various work over the years including driving school bus, skating rink maintenance and then moving on to Town Foreman. He returned to the west coast, spent some time in funeral services, operating equipment, and finished his working days as foreman for the Town of Harrison Hot Springs. He began his retirement in Nanaimo before moving to Alberta.

Gerry spent his retirement framing pictures, building furniture and small wooden toys. Gerry lived in the Sylvan Lake Lodge for several years where he had many friends. He is fondly remembered for joking with the staff and residents as well as the hospital staff right up to his last days.

He was especially proud of his children and grandchildren. He will be dearly missed
