Softly she was going up, And a star or two beside."
Robert David Wells
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Rob. He was born in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan on July 13, 1935 to Frank and Cecilia Wells. Upon leaving Saskatchewan, then living in the Lower Mainland for a brief period of time, the family settled on Texada Island, where Rob grew up and went to school. The majority of his working life was spent in the mining industry on Texada.
Rob is survived by his loving wife Barbara, sister Alys (Jim) Kalyn of Chilliwack, BC, niece Valerie Welde (Dave), two nephews Marvin (Kathy) Welde and Colin Welde, one great-niece, one great-nephew as well as four great great-nieces, all of Powell River. He was predeceased by his parents, sister Helene Orpen and his first wife Effie.
A great thank you to the wonderful staff at Olive Devaud Residence as well as Dr. B McDonald for all their constant care and support. There will be a memorial service held for Rob on Saturday, January 28, at 1:30 pm from the Royal Canadian Legion, Texada Island Branch. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to Parkinson Society Canada or to the building fund of the Texada Island Legion Branch. Arrangements entrusted to Stubberfield Funeral Home Ltd.
