Borden Lyle Bare

December 14, 1933 - May 20, 2023
In loving memory ~
Borden was born in MooseJaw, Saskatchewan. In 1965 he packed up his young family and ventured off to Vernon where he spent most of his working career at the General Paint store. He was an avid participant in most sports all his life. Golfing was his lifelong passion and it brought him great pleasure for many years. Borden supported his community for many years through Kinsmen, Lions, and PeeWee hockey. He was generous, kind, loving and supportive. He will be remembered by his wife Shirley of 63 years, daughter Barbara (Brian), son Robert (Melodee), grandchildren Tyler and Hannah, sister Patsy, brother Terry, sister in law Pat, and all his special nieces and nephews. He loved us all deeply and we loved him so very much. Special thanks to ALL the staff & physicians in ER and 6th floor at VJH, the Vernon quick response and home services, Vernon fire and ambulance, and IFT; your kindness and expertise was amazing. A celebration of life will take place June 17th from 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. at the Vernon Pleasant Valley Funeral Home. Anyone wishing to donate in memory of Borden may do so to the Canadian Heart & Stroke foundation.
