RONALD THEODORE BEDRY

     It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Ron Bedry on Thursday, January 13, 2022, in his sleep at his home in Winnipeg at the age of 68.

Ron was born in Calgary, Alberta on October 15, 1953, to parents Stephen Bedry and Irene D’Andrea (Bedry). He was predeceased by his mother Irene, father Stephen, and wife Irene. He leaves to cherish his memory his three sons Matthew, Joshua (Jill), Mitchell (Charity), his granddaughter Jordan, his sister Janet Grainger, his brother Bud, other relatives, and many lifelong friends and colleagues.

Ron spent more than 40 years working as a carpenter, and he will be remembered fondly as a funny and one-of-a-kind man. He was known as an unconventional craftsman who excelled at building difficult and complex structures. He and his wife Irene spent countless hours enjoying time at their trailer on Netley Creek. Ron enjoyed target shooting, was an avid fisherman, and a lover of all things outdoors. He was also a proud supporter and volunteer for the Interlake chapter of the Children’s Wish Foundation for 28 years, he was passionate about giving back and helping sick children.

Though often quiet and of few words in his later years, his devotion as a husband and his loving presence as a father were larger than life and will remain that way in our hearts. We are comforted knowing he is now reunited with the love of his life, Irene Bedry.

To comply with Ron’s wishes there will not be a formal funeral service. In lieu of flowers, to honour Ron’s memory please consider a donation to the South Interlake Chapter of the Children’s Wish Foundation, P.O. Box 139, Woodlands, Manitoba, R0C 3H0. A charitable tax receipt will be issued for each donation.

Rest in peace Ron,
Together Forever.
