WEBSTER, James Bruce (1925-2011)

Bruce passed away January 19, 2011, ending a valiant 10 year battle with Alzheimer's, in Campbell River, B.C., with his loving wife of 56 years, Marion (Adams) at his side. Left to miss him are his wife Marion, sons John (Marion), Graham (Joanne), and daughter Shawn (Steve Foley). Also remembering him are grandsons Chris Webster (Adrianna), Adam Webster(Samantha), Landon Foley, and Griffin Foley, as well as granddaughters Erin Horvath and Kathryn Webster, and great-grandson Daniel Webster. His sister Evelyn Boland and family of Victoria, B.C. will also miss him greatly, as well as brother-in-law Bud Adams (Norma) and family, and sister-in-law Peggy MacDonald (Skip) and family of Campbell River. Bruce was born in Drumheller, Ab. but the dirty 30's saw his parents return to Kirriemuir, Scotland, where he was raised and got his schooling. After a stint in the RAF, Bruce went to forestry school and then immigrated to the forests of British Columbia to work for the BC Forest service. While working on Vancouver Island, Bruce met Marion in Campbell River, and they settled to raise their family in Mission, B.C. where they resided for 37 years. Bruce was very involved in the community, through Kinsmen, the Hospital Board, St. Andrew's United Church, scouting, the Recreation Commission, Legion Branch 57, and many other organizations. Bruce and Marion retired back to Campbell River in 1996. Special thanks to Dr. Mechin, Jane Feniuk, Adult Care, and New Horizons. Memorial service to be held at Campbell River United Church, Friday January 28, 2011 at 1:30pm. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Alzheimer's Society, Research division.
