Obituary of Hermann Ulrich Zehnder

July 3, 1939 - May 17, 2014

On the evening of May 17th, Hermann went on his journey to a peaceful place where there is no cancer or pain.

He leaves behind Anita, his loving wife of 37 years, and his son Patrick, who he is so proud of.

An avid hiker, skier, curler, gardener, gourmet chef - he will be missed by his family and many friends. His surviving sisters Erna and Erika, and brother Andreas and many nieces and nephews of Switzerland will miss him greatly.

The family wishes to thank all of the nurses and doctors at the Invermere and Kelowna Hospitals for their professional care and attention. Also a great big thank you to all of the home care ladies. We appreciate everyone that touched Hermann's life with kindness and respect.

There will be no memorial service. In lieu of flowers, please consider remembering Hermann with a donation to one of his favourite charities: STARS Air Ambulance Calgary (stars.ca) or Make-A-Wish Foundation® of British Columbia (makeawishbc.ca)

 

Hermann will be our Guardian Angel and the brightest star in the sky.

 

Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service.
