• Wow I am so much in shock I just found out today March 20th from Jack that who worked with Irvan that he passed away ironically while we were in Mexico the place he loved......I first me Irvan many many years ago and just recently saw him again this past summer of 2015 when he came with Jack to do our eavestroughing.........it was so great to see him again he was wearing a "puerto vallarta" t-shirt and we talked about our mutual love for Mexico and he said he had not been going there recently but wanted to again very much as he loved it there. He had blue nail polish on his fingers and toes and I am thinking hmmmm but he told me his daughter had just got married and it did that for her wedding. We continued to talk about our mutual love for Mexico and he said he is going to go back there as soon as he can............he had a amazing soul and was a peaceful man and will be missed by many I am sure..... ido pero no olvidado - Posted by: Karen (acquaintance ) on: Mar 20, 2016

• I have know Irvine for over 10 years now. Met him through a friend when I needed some Trough installed on a project. I was falsely taken aback by what appeared to be the rough nature of this man. I could not have been more wrong as I came to know him in a profesional capacity and as a friend. I enjoyed the brief times we came in contact with his joyful outlook on life. Always wworking hard and enjoying life. I feel richer in my life for having known Irvine. I last saw him when I visited him in hospital and he never let his condition be known just saying he would be released soon and would be happy to get back to the work and life he loved. I will miss him and he will often be in my thoughts. Rest in peace my friend, you deserve it. - Posted by: Gordon Fendley (Friend) on: Mar 10, 2016

• A couple of years ago my life changed and I moved to Morden. Upon doing so, a very kind and warm neighbour welcomed me, named Jeannie. Through Jeannie I had the good fortune of meeting Irvin twice. It was brief but he impressed me with his smile and kindness. I will always remember him sharing watermelon and cold water at the back 40 concert in Morden. He was quick to help me feel welcome and comfortable as I was new. We had some good conversations and he offered much wisdom. The second time that same summer he came by and helped me with my lawnmower upon learning that I needed some help. I may not have known him well but I do know this, he was a very kind and wise man who touched my life. For this I am grateful. Bye Irv. Thank you for crossing my path in life. - Posted by: Mary Meiklejohn () on: Mar 02, 2016

• If you can love someone enough to allow them to be exactly what they choose to be without any expectations from you - you'll know to peace in your lifetime - to love means you love person for what they are not for what you think they should be A beautiful peace we shared. So blessed to have had you in my life. RIP Special one. - Posted by: Jeannie Lambrecht (Friend) on: Feb 28, 2016

• Irvin was one of our absolute favorite customers. Always polite, respectful, happy and very decisive. He always had a smile and treated my employees like they were friends. He was both a neighbor, customer and friend. We had no idea he was sick and were just wondering why he had not been by to visit. I enjoyed all my business dealings with him. He was a man of his word and a pleasure to do work for and talk to. We will miss his visits. One of the nicest men I have met.

• I met Irvin in 2002 and there was a group of about 8 of us who used to hang out all the time and every Friday night we would go for Chinese food. Irvin would order the deluxe won ton soup and always put so much hot chili paste in his soup he would break out in a sweat. He was such a good friend and my life was richer for having the gift of walking part of our journeys together. - Posted by: Judi McFarland (Friend) on: Feb 24, 2016

• I met Irvin at the HSC while my dad was recovering, it was only in a short time that he change my whole life. I have never met someone who made me see the world in a new light as if i was seeing it for the very first time. I had the privilege to have a dinner date with him and my family and we learned so much about each others lives. I am so forever grateful that I met you and your sister Irvin. You blessed my life more than you know. I will never forget that handsome smile, that great hat you would wear and those beautiful muckluks. Forever in our hearts dear friend. May you rest in that beautiful heaven where there is so much beauty. Until we meet again. - Posted by: Tracy Dyke (Friend) on: Feb 22, 2016

• I enjoyed Irvin's laughter and his passion for his truck. It was a joy to work on your baby for you. You will be missed, your friend Todd - Posted by: Todd pope (Friend ) on: Feb 22, 2016

• It was always a pleasure having Irvin around, his kind spirit will be missed around here. I remember him helping to clean our parking lot while we were working on his vehicle. We told him he didn't have to do that, but he insisted he would rather help than sit around and wait. That was just Irvin's way. Chow Friend. Our condolences to the family. - Posted by: The Staff @ Brian Reimer Audio (Friends) on: Feb 20, 2016
