Mark Redman Obituary

It is with great sadness we announce the sudden and unexpected passing of Mark Redman on January 2, 2020 in Delta, BC.

Although a less than average life span, Mark did not live an average life. He traveled where he wanted to travel, learned what he wanted to learn, loved who he wanted to love, enjoyed delicious food at every opportunity, and laughed always!

Before passing, Mark forged a 58-year trail of humor, generosity, compassion and wisdom. He will be greatly missed by his wife Jill, his children Max and Jenna and his siblings Jill (Ken), Brian (Robbi), Montei (Dave) and numerous nieces, nephews, in-laws and friends. Mark was predeceased by his parents, Lawrence and Mary Redman and brother, Larry.

Mark’s motto was: “Never be afraid to try!

He proved true to his motto in the diversity of his career. First a drummer in a rock band before becoming a Senior Partner in Advisory Services at Royal Trust. Next, a Senior Vice President at Travel Underwriters then Branch Manager at Envision Financial. He was the owner of FeelGood Treat Company and finally a Financial Planner at TD Wealth Management. Mark followed his dreams.

Mark was an active member of our community, volunteering at numerous events. He enjoyed a fine glass of wine along with a good meal, an afternoon of golf and most importantly, spending time with his family. His pride and joy were his children, and he was a loving Father and husband.

Mark will always be remembered for his quick wit and wonderful sense of humor. He had a vibrant personality and the ability to talk to anyone and everyone.

The Redman family would like to extend their gratitude to first responders, Delta Hospital, and the amazing community of Delta who continue to provide support during this difficult time.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, January 25th at 2:30 pm at the Beach Grove Golf Club in Tsawwassen - 5946 12 Ave, Delta. We invite you all to join us and feel free to wear your favorite Hawaiian shirt in honor of a man who took his fashion cues from no one.

Very sorry to learn of Mark's passing. He was my cousin and my best friend when we were small. I will never forget the time we spent together. My sincere condolences to his family.

I was very sorry to learn of Mark's passing yesterday evening. I worked with Mark at Envision Financial and had the pleasure of making music with him in that company's band,"Loaded Dice." Mark did every thing with great passion. He loved music and he was a excellent musician. His love of music was exceeded only by his love of his family and of life itself. You will be greatly missed Mark, but we will remember you fondly and will raise to you "the parting glass."

I worked with Mark as his Feelgood rep and later as his first client at TD. He always laughed so much and seemed to truly embrace his life. I will miss our month lunches and motorcycle chats. Best to you Jill, he was great.

Mark was a delightful gentleman, who really cared about the people he helped through the TD bank. My children's investments are proving to be top notch, thanks to Mark's efforts. My daughter, Fiona, is especially saddened for Mark's son, who is her classmate. Gone too soon, he will not be forgotten. I hope his family finds peace in their memories of the happy times.

Mark was a year older than me, but in the same grade as my twin brothers George & Chris Pappas..
He was such a stand up guy.. my brother Chris has tourettes and if anyone teased or picked on Chris Mark was always there defending Chris and possibly throwing around a punch or two to defend Chris.
Now Mark didn't have to do or say anything, but that shows his character and what a compassionate guy he was.
He will always be remembered for his compassionate heart, big smile and easy going personality.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family for their devastating loss. But you should feel very lucky to have had Mark in your lives, even though he left us too soon.
Chris wanted to come pay his respects to the family at the service but unfortunately he is very ill with the flu

May his memory be eternal
