It is with sadness that we announce the passing of our dad, Arthur L. Davis. Dad left to be with mom (Jean) who died July 2009 and our sister Lorel who died February 2010 and he started his journey on July 19, 2010.
Born on June 20, 1930, in Revelstoke, Dad and Mom started in Beaton where he worked for the Ministry of Highways as a road foreman. As our family grew, we moved into Revelstoke where dad was the foreman at 50 mile before moving back to Trout Lake.
In 1988 he took early retirement and moved on to many road projects all over B.C. Trout Lake was Dad and Mom’s love and our best family memories will always be there. Fishing and hunting was what Arthur loved to do best. Dad’s request was for no formal funeral, just a family gathering that he had a part in arranging. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Revelstoke Hospice Society, P.O Box 3133, Revelstoke, B.C. V0E 2S0 would be wonderful.
He will be missed by his children: Louis (Pam), Sheryl (John), Darrel (Jennifer); grandchildren: Kevin, Christy, Wes, Allison, Jimmy, Bobbi-Jean, Crystal, Katrina and Jeremy; great grandchildren: Brooke, Elliott, Jenna, Shelley, Dylan, Ryder and Ainsley (Magoo to Dad). Dad had many friends over his 80 years who will miss his wit.
We love and miss you already, Louis, Sheryl and Darrel.
