Dr. Roger K. Crittenden (1950-2023) died at home on January 23rd, after a courageous battle with Parkinson's Disease. His wife Sarah and children Jessica & Charlie sat with him as he passed on peacefully, with great dignity. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, uncle, and brother. He was a kind friend, a dedicated physician, an epic outdoorsman/athlete, a great intellect, and above all, a good man.
Following his childhood in Cape Town, his medical career took him to Namibia and then England. He met Sarah at a hospital in Leamington Spa, and their adventures around the world brought them to Canada. From the Prairies to the Okanagan Valley, they raised their family and made so many amazing friends along the way.
Roger enjoyed a good bookshop, an intriguing mountain, and thoughtfully conversing with the world.
He will never be forgotten.
