CLARKE BRUCE MILLER Join us in celebrating the life of Clarke Miller, loving husband, father and grandfather. Clarke, who was loved for 79 years, left us peacefully on January 1, 2000. He was predeceased by his parents Bruce and Pearl and a daughter, Shirley June. Left to cherish his memory is Gloria, his wife and soulmate of 53 years; daughters, Lynda (Jim Bell) and Sharon (Jim Pearce) son Bruce (Peggy) six grandchildren, Jeffery and Jonathon Bell, Jaclyn and Jamie Pearce, Scott and Ryan Miller and other close families and dear friends, the Kelloggs, Shingletons, Bergners, and Elizabeth Cairns. Winnipeg was home to Clarke for his entire life. He graduated from the University of Manitoba with a Bachelor of Commerce, then enlisted in the airforce where he became a navigational officer. He joined Great West Life in 1946 where he worked in a series of management positions until his retirement in 1982. Clarkes family and friends meant the world to him. We have many fond memories of family vacations, reunions and celebrations. Clarke will always be remembered for his quick wit and his love of sports. He was an avid baseball and hockey fan. He supported the Chicago Cubs fervently for 70 years, and for 28 years he was a season ticket holder to the WHA Jets and Moose. He was a member of the St. Boniface Golf Club and the Fort Rouge Curling Club and bridge group. Cremation has taken place. A memorial service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, January 5, at Churchill Park United Church, 525 Beresford Ave. Rev. Russell Wardell will officiate. The family wishes to thank the staff of the Victoria Hospital for all the care and kindness they showed Clarke. In lieu of flowers, if friends so desire, donations may be made to a charity of their choice. Clarke was admired and respected by all who knew him. NEIL BARDAL INC.949-2200
