Posted to Germany, Dad met Mom and they married in 1971. Following his retirement, he worked for the BC Government for over a decade in Ambulance payroll and later as a Pharmacare auditor, positions he enjoyed and excelled at. Serge loved sports and enjoyed coaching hockey, baseball and soccer. An avid curler himself, he taught many junior curlers. Serge also enjoyed fishing, golfing and time with Rosemarie at their trailer. He was active as a Scout leader for over 20 years. He left a large impact on many lives and will be greatly missed. A celebration of Serge’s life will be held at a later date.
