VICTOR STUBBINGS Obituary
VICTOR ERNEST STUBBINGS age 87 years June 18, 1938 - March 12, 2026
Weep not for me, for I am free from all life's pains and sorrows, free at last to forget the past and the trials of tomorrow. But if you care, please say a prayer for those I leave behind me. Their time will come, when we'll all be one, together for eternity.
Victor Ernest Stubbings passed away in Winnipeg, Manitoba, on March 12, 2026, after a long and courageous battle with Parkinson's Disease. At his side were his loving daughter Vicki and son-in-law Ken. He will also be remembered with endless love and respect by his son Randall (Holly) and grandsons Adam (Lucia), Jason, and Travis (Nick). He is also survived by brothers Butch (Lois) and Thomas, by sisters Lynne (George) and Susan, and several nieces and nephews. Victor was predeceased by Myrna (nee Purkis), his beloved wife of 54 years, by his son Daniel (at age 3), by his parents (George and Marion), and by his sister Anne.
"Pops" was very proud of his family and greatly enjoyed times spent with his grandsons. A visit to Disneyland with Adam and golfing at Banff Springs with Jason and Travis were especially memorable. Christmas every second year was always a special occasion as all the family would gather in Winnipeg to celebrate this special time of year.
After a brief stint sailing on the "lakers" on the Great Lakes, he joined CP Express in Port Arthur (now Thunder Bay) in 1957. He worked in various positions and departments in Thunder Bay, Vancouver, and Winnipeg, where he retired in 1996 as Manager of Sales for the Prairie Region. He was quite active in the transportation community and served as president of both the Thunder Bay and Winnipeg transportation clubs. He also served as chairman for National Transportation Week in 1993. He curled for many years out of the St. Vital Curling Club and was an active member of the St. Boniface Golf Club for over 40 years. Victor was a strong supporter of Canadian Blood Services, having made over 100 donations. If he is to be remembered for only one thing, he would have it be how much he loved Myrna.
Respecting his wishes, a private family ceremony will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations to any children's charity would be respectfully appreciated.
