Ben Myrick Obituary
Ben passed away quietly and on his own terms at Nicola Valley Hospital. Born in Bozeman, Montana, Ben came to Canada in 1973 and was proud to be a Canadian citizen
.Ben was a friend, mentor and guide to many people. He had no interest in power, prestige, or position, and he didn't let his ego get in the way of helping.
His quiet demeanor was a part of his ability to be kind, empathetic and encouraging to those he met along life's path. It was in his role as counsellor that Ben excelled. He saw only the best in his clients and worked tirelessly to bring them both health and healing.
He will be sorely missed by all the people whose lives he touched. He loved his family: his wife, Ava Dean and best friend of 40 years, his sister Sue Thompson of Sechelt, his step-daughter Wendy Lovatt (Lawrence), and his step-grandson Nicholas Furtado. He was a loving caregiver to the end – offering words of comfort and making sure his family was OK with his passing.
He would like you to remember him with a smile, then raise a glass of Coca Cola and salute every Smart Car you see – his two passions to the end. If you wish to honour his memory, please donate to men's programming at Conayt Friendship Centre or Nicola Family Therapy.
With many thanks to Dr. Simpson, Dr. Dan, and to the very kind and caring nurses at NV Hospital.
