Arthur Walter Blackall 1928 - 2021
Guy Lionel Dansereau Born on April 2, 1958, in Prince Albert, SK. and passed away on November 21, 2021, in Kamloops, BC formerly of Maple Ridge, BC. Guy was predeceased by his father Paul Dansereau, his mother Irene Dansereau, and brother-in-law Marcel Benard. He leaves to mourn four sisters, Michelle (Don) Spindor, Beatrice (Les) Weigel, Marilyn (Guy) Pouliot, Paulette (Henry) Vandervelde, nieces and nephews, Lisa Spindor (Jason Baybutt), Mike Spindor (Brankica Gavrilovic), Danielle (Ryan) Johnson, Adam Spindor, Stephanie Vandervelde (Alexander Bell), Carl and (Kodi) Weigel, Lauren Weigel (Anthony Chasky), Michel Benard (Karsen Rosset), great nieces and nephews Grady Johnson, Olivia Johnson, Casey Henderson, Jacob Henderson, Georgia Spindor, Jackson Spindor and Mackenzie Weigel and many aunts, uncles, and cousins. Guy was a gentle soul. A kind and generous friend to all he met. Always ready to help anyone in need. He lived his life on his own terms, always. He enjoyed life and spending time with his family and friends. He had a special place in his heart for animals and had two incredibly special dogs, Molly and Max who he had to place with friends as a move did not allow pets. Later, he inherited a smaller dog named “Bella” who belonged to a special friend who sadly passed. Bella was the light of his life. Guy taught her many tricks. The nieces and nephews always enjoyed when he would visit with Bella. It was Guy’s request not to have a funeral but instead have a “Party” he called it. Due to the state of our roads with all the flooding, we have decided to postpone A Celebration of Life TBD.
kamloopsthisweek.com • kamloopsthisweek.com • kamloopsthisweek.com
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Arthur Walter Blackall of Kamloops, BC, on November 22, 2021, at 93 years of age. Arthur is survived by his loving wife of 69 years, Mina Blackall, as well as their children Sheila (Ray) Brooks of Kamloops, Bruce (Kathy) Blackall of Sheridan Lake, Tara (Terry) Hartwig of Kamloops, and Earl (Terri) Blackall of Kamloops. Also left to cherish Arthur’s memory are grandchildren Lana (Joseph), Erin (Scott), Sydnee and Tia, as well as great-grandchildren Shaunnessy, Brooke and Carter, and two sisters-in-law, one brother-in-law, countless nieces, nephews, great nieces, and great nephews. Arthur was predeceased by his parent Vi and Jack, brothers Phil and Dick, and sister Ruth Menard. Art was born in Tisdale, SK, in 1928. He moved with his family to BC in 1944. In 1950 he met his future wife Mina, who he married 2 years later in Mission, BC. Art and Mina moved to 100 Mile House in 1955, and then to Kamloops in 1969. Art was a truck driver by trade and was nicknamed “The Hawk” by his trucking friends. Art enjoyed camping, fishing, and socializing with family and friends. He also enjoyed buying cars; a trip to get toilet paper once resulted in him coming home with a Chrysler New Yorker instead. Art had a vivacious personality and was always the life of the party. He will be greatly missed. There will be no formal ceremony, by request. The family wishes to extend a special thanks to Dr. Malan, the doctors, and nurses at RIH, and Ponderosa Lodge nurses and caregivers. In lieu of flowers, donations in Art’s memory may be made to the Royal Inland Hospital Foundation. Condolences may be expressed to the family from www.myalternatives.ca

THE ANGEL ON YOUR SHOULDER
By Jackie Huston Lena, Wisconsin There’s an angel on your shoulder Though you may not know she’s there, She watches over you day and night And keeps you in her care. There’s an angel on your shoulder Watching you learn and grow Keeping you safe from danger And nurturing your soul. She’ll be there through your triumphs She’ll dance on clouds with pride, She’ll hold your hand through disappointments and fears, Standing faithfully by your side. In her lifetime this angel was strong and true, And stood up for what was right. In your life you’ll be faced with decisions and trials And she’ll shine down her guiding light. Life holds so much in store for you, So remember as you grow older, There are no heights you cannot reach ‘Cause there’s an angel on your shoulder. Bereavement Publishing Inc. 5125 N. Union Blvd, Suite 4 Colorado Springs, CO 80918
