We regret to announce the passing of Burton W. Wright in Quesnel, BC after a short battle with cancer.

Burt is pre-deceased by his first wife Freda, his second wife Betty, son Daniel and grand daughter Lee-Ann.

Burt is survived by his son Michael (Barb), daughter Mary-Ann (Del), daughter-in-law Peggy, numerous grand kids and great grand kids.

Burt was a long serving member of the Lions Club and served in Burnaby, Nanoose Bay, Parksville, and Quesnel. He was most proud of his involvement with the Lions Quest Program and was a driving force in the development of Nanoose Place.

As per Burt’s request there will be no service and in lieu of flowers, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society are requested.

The family would like to express great appreciation to Dr. R. Tiede, the nurses at G.R. Baker Hospital and the staff at Dunrovin Park Lodge Hospice. The tenderness and respect you gave Burt in his final days was remarkable. Thank you.
