Also left to mourn are his adopted grandson Todd, 18 great grandchildren, and a large extended family. Dick was sadly predeceased by his beloved wife Dorothy, and his sisters Doreen and Betty. Dick was the personification of the word "Gentleman". He was a very successful entrepreneur who started many successful businesses. He was the Founder of the Tiger group of companies and ran them until his retirement in 1990, when he moved from Calgary, Alberta to the Okanagan to enjoy his life of ease. He very much enjoyed his "snow bird" time in Lake Havasu with his wife Mary, family, and friends. He was a very kind and gentle man who loved his family dearly and kept a special place in his heart for his granddaughters. He loved ice cream, cookies, and a wee dram of his special Scotch. He will be forever remembered and missed by his loving wife and his family. A celebration of Dick's life will be held on Saturday, September 14th at 2:00 pm at Springfield Funeral Home Family Centre, 2020 Springfield Road, Kelowna, BC.
