JOHN ERNEST BADIOU It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of our Dad on Friday, January 12, 2007 at the young age of 68 years at St. Mary's Hospital, Camrose, Alberta with his family by his side. Anyone who met Dad would agree that he was a character, soft hearted, kind, generous and he liked to meet and talk to everyone. He was also an avid country music listener and dancer. As kids we remember times spent with Dad fishing, camping and traveling to different places in Canada and America as we followed him during his career as a pipeline welder. With patience and the goodness of his heart, Dad taught us our life lessons. John will always be loved and remembered by his daughter Claudette (Vlad) of Winnipeg; two sons Kelly (Tammy) and Richard (Hazel) both of Calgary; their mother Donna; four grandchildren; one step-granddaughter and one step-great granddaughter. John will also be missed by his six brothers; two sisters and many nieces, nephews and friends. Funeral services will be held on Sunday, January 14, 2007 at 1:00 p.m. from The Burgar Memorial Chapel (4817 - 51 Avenue, Camrose) with Rev. Eduardo Escober officiating. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to The Canadian Cancer Society. Many thanks to the Cross Cancer Institute's Dr. Butts and Staff in Edmonton and also to Dr. Bredesen and caring Staff at St. Mary's Hospital's in Camrose. Burgar Funeral Home Camrose in care of arrangements. 780-672-2121.
