THE VIDEO TRIBUTE HONOURING RICHARD IS AVAILABLE BELOW.
It is with incredible sadness that we announce that passing of Richard Lamey of Frank, AB. On October 27, 2021, at the age of 74 years, he was called home to Heaven.
Dad loved the Lord above all else. He would spend hours reading and studying the Bible, memorizing scripture, and being in the presence of God. He also loved his family and always looked forward to spending time with them. He especially loved Mom, and the two of them shared a bond that will never be broken, even after 52 years of marriage.
Dad liked building and fixing things and he was always puttering around tinkering with something, which often drove Mom crazy. He also enjoyed going to the gym and camping at “the lake”. Dad was very social and always welcomed the opportunity to have good conversation - particularly about Jesus.
While we are heartbroken that he is no longer with us in person, we are so happy that he is in Heaven walking, leaping and praising God. We can’t wait until we are all together again, Dad. Love you.
Left to mourn his passing and celebrate his life is his wife, Penny Lamey of Frank, AB; his son, Mark (Judy) Lamey of Lethbridge, AB; his daughter, Shelley Halvorson of Lethbridge, AB; his grandchildren, Zack Lamey, Adam Lamey, Tessah Halvorson, Tai Halvorson and Jack Halvorson; his sister, Fran (Wayne) Smith of Port Coquitlam, BC; his brother-in-law, Kevin (Beth) Poch of Coleman, AB; his sister-in-law, Wendy (Brian) Aris of Langdon, AB; his cousin, Margaret (Bill) Taylor of Medicine Hat, AB; as well as his extended family and many friends.
He was predeceased by his parents, Francis and Caroline Lamey, and his parents-in-law, Joseph and Fay Poch.
