Donald James Riske, November 2, 1931 – January 17, 2011 With deep sadness, our loving father passed away unexpectedly at Peace Arch Memorial Hospital. Don was predeceased by his wife, Willie, and daughter Cheryl. Survived by his children, Mark (Shirley), Gail (Dave), Mike (Julie) and his grandchildren Sarah, Trevor (Brooke) and Leah. He was a CP Air pioneer with more than 33 years of service, who still loved to follow the airline industry through friends and online news articles. After he retired, he moved to Missezula Lake where he and mom built their own home and chose to live the simple life with a wood stove and chainsaw. He kept busy with carpentry, square dancing his way across North America and started curling when he turned 70. Don was a soft spoken man, with a truly great sense of humour and a quick wit. He will be greatly missed by family and friends. Dad now you can go find Mom!! Thank you to the staff at Pacifica Retirement Resort who made his short time there very special, as well as the emergency staff at Peace Arch Hospital who made his last days comfortable. No service upon request. In lieu of flowers, donations to your charity of choice. Condolences may be offered at www.victoryfuneralcentre.ca
