Steven Peter Lyle Jeakins

September 12, 1950 – February 24, 2016

Lyle passed away suddenly on Wednesday, February 24. He was predeceased by his parents Vivian and Peter, stepfather Jim and brother Murray. Lyle will be greatly missed by his daughters Keltie Jeakins and Nicola (Mac) McCullough, sister Janice Johnson, nephew Shane Johnson and his aunt Joan "Toots" Jeakins.

Lyle moved to BC from Hudson, QC, when he was 16 years old. He loved Savary Island, a glass of merlot, hockey and golf. Lyle enjoyed writing, history and landscaping; he turned the yard of his retirement home into an oasis of shrubbery and flowers. He had a wonderful smile and enjoyed a good laugh, even when the joke was on him. A lot of friends will miss him greatly.

A memorial service will be held at 2 pm Saturday, April 2, at the Historic Lund Hotel. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Recreation Foundation of BC. For more information, go to recreationfoundationbc.ca/Donate.aspx.
