BLAINE WHITE

It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Blaine White, with his family by his side, at Lake of the Woods District Hospital in Kenora, Ont.
We are thankful for the two short months—from June 9 when he was diagnosed with terminal cancer until his death on Aug. 7, 2005—that we had to spend with him and that he had to share his faith with his numerous visitors.
He and his family have been overwhelmed with the outpouring of love and support from family, the Lakeside Baptist church family, friends, and hospital staff.
Blaine was born Oct. 25, 1955 in Fort Frances, Ont. and raised there. After graduating from Fort Frances High School, he attended the University of Winnipeg and Red River College in Winnipeg, Man., obtaining a degree in Electronic Technology.
He was hired by the pulp and paper mill in Kenora, where he worked for his entire career.
Blaine considered himself very fortunate to be able to live in Kenora. He loved the outdoors and sports were a big part of his life. He was
passionate about playing golf and hockey.
He also was actively involved in coaching many teams that his children played on.
Blaine loved his family. He will be dearly missed by his wife, Beth, and his three children, Jennifer (Tyler Mostow), Breanne, and Tyler.
He also leaves to mourn his mother, Elaine (Tom) Kiddle; brothers, Randy (Diane) and Doug; and sisters, Cindy (Dale) Mounk, Kelly (Dan) Boehmer, and Barbie (Warren) McMillen.
Blaine was predeceased by his father, Arthur White.
Cremation has taken place and funeral services will be held at Knox United Church in Kenora, on Friday, Aug. 12, 2005 at 2 p.m.
Blaine wanted anyone who attended to feel free to dress casually.
“Blaine, you’re the greatest!”
