WEST, Ernest Raye West - 1932 – 2021 It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our dear Raye (Gusty) on Tuesday, December 21, 2021 at the age of 89.
Beloved husband of Marion (nee Hayward).
Cherished father of Darlene, Raye (Dee) and Barry. He will be fondly remembered by his grandchildren, Leslie, Ashley (Karl), Terina, Brandon (Melanie), Breanna, Aaron and Shawn and by his great-grandchildren Noah, Raya, Bobbi, Zephyr, Brady and Brinley.
Survived by his siblings Dean “Wiener”, Keith and sister-in-law, Grace.
Predeceased by his parents, Albert and Edna West, his siblings Junior, Donna and Ron.
Sports were an integral part of his life, hockey, baseball, golf and he was an excellent card player. He passed on the love for all those things to his kids and grandkids.
He was a fantastic pool player, and a real sports buff. He never missed a daily crossword puzzle. He also never missed the opportunity to tug the hair of his grandkids, and eventually his grandkids too.
A man of few words, he was loved and respected by all who knew him
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Memory of Ernest to the Orono Amateur Athletic Association. (https://oaaa.ca/).
