Our dear husband, brother, uncle, father and grandfather ”Wrighty” passed away on Tuesday, June 26th at Battlefords Union Hospital after a brief struggle with esophageal cancer. He is now reunited with his beloved companions, his dogs Danka, Chessa and Chase.
Bryan was born and raised in Saskatoon and attended King George School and The Collegiate. After working at CN for over thirty years, he retired in Cochin, SK in 1996. Bryan worked at the transfer site for the RM of Meota for eleven years where he met more people who all came to love him. He was always known as a guy with the biggest heart, willing to help with anything, his only compensation a drink of Lambs Navy Rum and a game of Crib.
He is lovingly remembered by his wife Shirley, her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, brothers Bob (Lynn), George (Brenda), sister Lynn, son Chad, as well as numerous nieces, nephews and countless friends. Bryan was predeceased by his parents Irvy (1986) and Irene (2012).
