Walter Edwards

January 25, 1943 - January 16, 2022

It is with deep sadness that the family of Walter Edwards share his passing on January 16, 2022, at age 78. He passed away at his home in Victoria, BC with his loving wife, Jean, daughter, Sonnie, and granddaughter, Stephanie by his side. Formerly of London, Ontario, he was 'one of the Edwards boys' from Beal Tech in the late 50's. Walter will be missed by his loving wife and best friend Jean (Armstrong), daughters Sonnie Marsh, Lisa Edwards and her partner Steven, Brenda Edwards, and son Andrew and wife Rocio Golin. Adored Papa of Natalie Day and partner Alex, Stephanie Day, and Daniel and Christina Golin. Oldest brother of Don and Nancy Edwards, London; Shirley (Brian) and Jack Galbraith, London; Alan and Lynn Edwards, Winnipeg; Cherie and John Stenabaugh, London; Terry and Karen Edwards, Cochrane; Robin and Doreen Edwards, Chatham; Teresa (Scott) and Ted Vanderberg, St Thomas; Carmen and David Jones, Lucan; Dena and Dennis Regier, Zurich. Loved Brother-in-law of Barb (Cameron) Parker of Portugal and dear Uncle to Suzanne Cameron-Beckstead, Steve Cameron and Jesse Cameron. Walter was predeceased by parents Isabelle and Leslie, and brothers Brian (1994) and Scott (2015). We offer our heartfelt appreciation to Dr. Gaylene Hargrove, Dr. Dennis Francis, and all other medical practitioners who provided care to Walter. He will be lovingly remembered by dozens of nieces and nephews, friends, and the many young people that were cared for during their time of need, in his Victoria home, alongside his wife Jean. In addition to helping others, Walter enjoyed fly-fishing trips to the northern BC interior, cooking for large groups of lucky people, and working on his fast cars. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Kidney Foundation of Canada, and Rain Coast Dog Rescue Society are appreciated.
