Philip Robert Wheatley

It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Philip (Phil) Robert WHEATLEY on April 10, 2023, at the age of 75.

He will be missed considerably by his wife of 50 years, Sandra; his daughter, Fay; his son, Kyle; and his two granddaughters, Alia and Naya, as well as his family and friends locally and globally. Known as Pip to many, he immigrated to Vancouver, Canada, in 1973 from Derbyshire, England, and enjoyed most of his life in North Vancouver. A mechanical engineer by trade, he worked for over thirty years for Coast Mountain Bus Company- Translink. Phil will be remembered for enjoying a good ale pint or glass of red wine, watching and coaching soccer, his dedication to fitness, his appreciation for British cars, his wisdom and helpful character, traveling with Sandra, and spending time with his granddaughters. He will be sorely missed.

In lieu of sending flowers, donations can be made to the BC Cancer Society or the BC Heart and Stroke Foundation. Per Phil’s request, no funeral or memorial service will be held.
