He was predeceased by his parents Ada and Henry Pott, brother Charles Pott and sister-in-law Jean. Allan will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He had a great sense of humour and was always willing to help others. Allan was born October 28, 1937 in Vita, Manitoba. He grew up in Roseau River, MB. After graduating Allan successfully completed a course in Welding. Upon retiring at the age of 58 from the welding trade, he returned to his home town in Roseau River, MB. to pursue other interests. Allan very much enjoyed spending time in his workshop which gave him great pride in his many projects. The family express their deepest gratitude to the staff of The Manitoba Cancer Foundation, St. Boniface Unit and the Palliative Care Unit at the St. Boniface General Hospital. Our sincere thanks are extended to Dr. Boyd, Dr. Wong, Dr. Daeninck and the many family, friends and co-workers who offered their support and prayers. We hold you in our prayers and you will be missed and always remembered as a loving husband, wonderful father, caring grandfather and devoted brother.

When I Must Leave You When I must leave you for a little while Please do not grieve and shed wild tears and hug your sorrow to you through the years, But start out bravely with a gallant smile; And for my sake and in my name Live on and do all things the same, Feed not your loneliness on empty days, But fill each waking hour in useful ways, Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer And I in turn will comfort you and hold you near; And never, never be afraid to die, For I am waiting for you in the sky! LEATHERDALE GARDINER 1858 Portage Avenue 949-4872
