1925 ~ 2017


Ove Johannesen passed away on June 18, 2017 peacefully at home surrounded by his loving family. We are thankful to have had such a caring and compassionate husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather in our lives. He enjoyed a rich and fulfilling 92 years of life. He will be remembered for his sense of humour, thoughtfulness and quiet demeanor. He was an avid golfer who enjoyed cross-country skiing, walking, woodworking, gardening, floor curling, dancing and was a voracious reader.


He is survived by his loving wife Elsie, his children Bonnie, Daryl (Val), Larry (Sharon) and Kim (Al) Tranq, 10 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren.


A Celebration of Life will be held Saturday, July 15, 2017, 1:00 pm at St. Andrew’s United Church. Donations can be made to the charity of your choice.
