Armour Turk Obituary
ARMOUR, Colin "Turk"
1930 - 2024
Colin "Turk" Armour died at the age of 77 in Saanich Peninsula Hospital. Turk was predeceased by his wife Terry Armour, brother Stuart Armour, sister-in-law Judi Hutchison, brother-in-law Robin Hutchison, his in-laws John and Barbara Hutchison and his parents, Joyce and David Armour.
Turk was a lucky man. He married his best friend at 20 and enjoyed 57 years together, he raised two kids he was very proud of, had a wonderful grandson and was blessed with the best group of lifelong friends a man could ask for. Turk was not always an easy man, but he was a good one. His life's work was farming the land that he loved on Oldfield Road with Terry. Skylark Farm was his pride and joy. He was always willing to offer a hand, share his knowledge or his farm equipment with anyone who needed it. Turk and Terry travelled widely throughout BC, camping and fishing by themselves and with friends. He was loyal, hard working and a good friend. There was nothing Turk liked more than a monster bonfire, a case of beer and some good friends to sit around it.
He had a wonderful life and will be missed by those he leaves behind; son Scott and daughter-in-law Dana, grandson Nick, daughter Suzanne and son-in-law Paul, brother and sister-in-law Michael and Katy Hutchison. His family would like to thank Turk's closest friends John, Joe, Ray, Berta, Gordie, Leighton, Dave, Rob and Allison, Syd and his cousin Jim for the support they provided Turk these last months. Finally, many thanks to Dr. Erika Reiser who provided him with such excellent care.
