In loving memory ~
It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Les Schier. Les will be remembered with love by his wife of 60 years Colleen, one brother Warren (Sylvia), two children Alanna and Jay (Carolyn), two grandchildren Anderson and Elise, and many cherished nieces and nephews.
He was pre-deceased by his parents Oswald and Leona, his brothers Edwin and Lloyd, and his son baby Schier (born sleeping August 4, 1968).
Les was born in Vernon and lived there for 75 years before moving to Victoria BC with Colleen to be closer to his children and grandchildren.
Les loved sports and was co-owner of the Vernon Vikings Jr Hockey Club from 1972-73'. He was Club Captain and President of the Spallumcheen Golf Club where he was a member for over 30 years. Les was also a member of the Vernon Gyro Club for 27 years and served as President for 1 term. He was a long-time employee of Vernon Paving.
Les will be forever missed as a loving and devoted husband, father, uncle and grandfather.
There will be no service held but in memory of Les please cheer for the Canucks in their next game.
