Obituary of Lorne Poyser

Lawrence Franklin was born to Reuben and Pearl Poyser on December 24, 1932

in Roblin, Manitoba and passed away at the Killam Hospital on August 9, 2019 at

the age of 86 years.

 

Lorne is loved and will be greatly missed by his wife Betty; his children, Garland 

(Gwenda), Lynda;   Glenn (Cindi), Marvin (Eileen), step-daughter Cathy (Issak)

Neufeld;   sixteen grandchildren, twenty-eight great-grandchildren; his brother

Raymond Poyser; sister-in-law Eleanor Poyser and numerous other relatives.

 

Throughout his life, Lorne was always a hard worker, be it in his trade of

automotive mechanics or in sales.  Lorne loved visiting with family.  In his

retirement years, he enjoyed caring for his tomatoes and plants. 

He especially liked to go fishing... with sons, grandsons, nephews or friends at

local lakes, northern lakes or at his favourite,  Pearl Lake, Manitoba.   He and

Betty enjoyed watching the wild birds come to the feeders they would place and

  tend in their backyard.

                                     

Lorne bravely met the challenge handed to him by the aggressive brain tumor

that took his life and in the last days before his death, he was surrounded by

family and friends.  He will be missed.

A private family service will take place at a later date.
