HILTZ, HAROLD KENNETH
April 22, 1931 – January 28, 2015
Harold passed away, at 83 years old, in hospital after some years of declining health. He is dearly missed by his family.
Harold is survived by Helena (high school sweetheart, wife of 60 years, soul-mate, caregiver), his 3 children sons Brett (Vicki), Mark (Laura), daughter Kelley (Shaun), grandchildren Brooke (Allen), Jordan (Darrel), Megin, great grandchildren Zachary, Blake; brother Merle (Phyllis) and family; predeceased by his brother Elwyn. He was born in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, middle child to Frank and Anna Hiltz.
Harold wished to thank his many colleagues for an enjoyable 37 year career with the International Pacific Salmon Fisheries Commission and Fisheries and Ocean Canada. Some favourite things and places: fishing and hunting, driving, boats, RVing to the warm south, trips and cruises: the Fraser River, Shuswap Lake, Active Pass, the ocean side and pond at Craig Bay. There wasn’t much that Harold couldn’t figure out, fix or build.
A celebration of Harold’s life will be held at the Craig Bay Beach Club, Parksville,
February 28th from 1:00 – 3:00pm.
In lieu of flowers, consider a donation in his memory to the Parkinson Society British Columbia.
