Phillip and Alison Townsend and rest of the Townsend Family
Phillip it is with great sorrow that I heard of Dave’s passing. Pansy and I offer you our sincere condolences and prayers during this time of sorrow.
John David Townsend passed away March 5, 2021, at the Kirkland and District Hospital with his dear friend Pat Hume by his side. He was 70 years old.
During his last few months, he lived at Teck Pioneer Residence. He was incredibly happy there and was referred to as their greeter. He would sit in the front lobby and say hello to everyone who entered.
Dave was predeceased by his father (Albert Townsend), his mother (Olga Townsend) and his sister (Pam Townsend).
He is survived by his brothers Philip (Alison) Townsend, Rick (Linda) Townsend and his Sister Penny Townsend. He was also survived by his nieces and nephew, Miranda Townsend, Melissa, Townsend, Morgan, Townsend, Megan Ruttan, Shannon Ruttan and his great-nephew Henry Ruttan- Walker.
Cremation has taken place and Dave will be buried with his father, mother, and sister, Pam, at a later date.
Thanks go out to the staff of Teck Pioneer for the excellent care Dave received. I also want to thank Dr. Kirkey and the nurses at Kirkland and District Hospital for the excellent care they offered Dave over the years.
Donations can be sent to Teck Pioneer Residence in Dave's name.
