Surrounded by love and family by his side, it is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather, and brother, Glen Armstrong, on Thursday, April 16, 2015 at the age of 59.
He was predeceased by his parents, Frank (Bud) and Della Armstrong; brother, Donald (Duck) Armstrong; sister-in-law, Roxanne Armstrong; and, most recently, his mother-in-law, Peggy Murray.
Glen is survived by his loving wife of 36 years, Lisa, and his loving children, Chad Armstrong and Natasha (Ryan) Lamoureux.
Also left behind with fond memories of their cherished “Papa” are Glen’s grandchildren, Taryn and Evan.
He also is survived by his siblings, Reed (Angie) Armstrong, Bonnie (Howard) Crowe, Wallace (Susan) Armstrong, and Cheryl (Gary) Kreger; and in-laws, Dawn (Jim) Jarvis, Vaughn (Melanie) Murray, and Wendy (Rick) Gubersky.
Missing him, as well, are many nieces and nephews and the extended families that will cherish their memories of Glen.
Glen worked hard, loved much, and lived life to the fullest. First and foremost, Glen was a family man. He devoted himself to his wife, children, and grandchildren, working hard to provide for them and enjoying to the utmost the time he was given to spend with them.
We will meet to celebrate Glen’s life on Friday, April 24, 2015 at 2 p.m. at St. James Anglican Church in Rainy River, Ont., with Rev. Douglas Greig officiating.
