COPELAND, Brian Cameron - August 21, 1958 - November 1, 2020
A Man in Full Suddenly, at home, we lost the best of fathers and the best of friends.
He lived a life of generosity, built homes and relationships, loved art, philosophy and science, played and coached hockey with passion, and left us his children as his greatest creation and the centre of his life.
Brian enjoyed his "volunteer" army of family and friend labourers and offered both gentle and rough instruction.
We amazed him with our ignorance but he loved us anyway.
We treasure the memories of this year with him.
A heart attack on October 25th surprised him.
His good care in hospital and return home gave us a week when Brian savoured his good life and gave and received love intensely.
He knew love.
Son of the late Jack and Barbara Copeland (Lough).
Survived by daughter Barbara and son Calvin.
Deeply missed by sister Janice (Guy Poulin), brother Kevin Copeland, nieces Rebecca (Mat Marrelli) and Rachel, nephew Jack Copeland, his partner Dyanne (Ostrander) his Digby, Alexander, Lough and Copeland aunts and uncles, cousins and many more much-loved and loving relatives and a host of friends and teammates of all ages.
"What he had, he shared."
Cremation will take place on Monday, November 9th and due to COVID-19 restrictions, will be a private event.
