Gary Langevin Obituary

Our beloved Gary left us after a short but hard fought battle with cancer. Gary is survived by his wife Joan of Big Valley, AB his son Shawn of Fort MacMurray AB, and daughter Charlane of Saskatoon, SK. Five grandchildren, Brandon, Katlin, Ashley, Kaylee, and Lindsey. Two great grandchildren Sophia, and Vera Lynn. Gary is also survived by his siblings Ron (Marlene) Elaine, Mary Jane, Phillip, and Michael (Arlene) and his step-sons Robbie (Lisa) and Ryan (Kristi). Plus five step-grandsons, Carter & Parker, Ethan, Aiden, & Kristian. Numerous nieces and nephews.

Gary's working career was spent almost entirely with the BC Forest Service in various capacities. A career that spanned nearly 33 years, most of it spent at Fort St John. After Gary left the Forest Service, he followed his heart and his love of the mountains, and went guiding for a few years. He then moved on to some oilfield work, and put his love of "butchering wood" as he put it to good use, building for a few years.

Throughout his life Gary's absolute passion and joy remained his beloved Quarter Horses, his prized Blue Roans were the pinnacle of his breeding program.

When Gary met Joan he moved with his horses to Big Valley, AB where he continued to breed his good Blue Roans. Gary and Joan married on July 1st, 2016 in the Grand Canyon, and were so looking forward to many more adventures after Joan's retirement this year.

Donations in Gary's name may be made to the BC or AB chapters of the Wild Sheep Foundation.

I still think of my old friend and hunting partner and have many deep memories of Gary. We stayed alive by staying under a goat hide to stay alive among other memories. My condolences to his wife and family. Gary was a straight forward type guy
