Theodore Ramler Obituary

RAMLER - Theodore Henry It is with great sadness that the family of Theodore Henry Ramler announces his passing. Ted passed away March 18, 2014 at the young age of 62 after a short but courageous battle with cancer. He spent the last twenty years on Vancouver Island after moving here from Saskatchewan where he grew up. Though his roots are in the prairies, his heart came to rest in the beauty of the west coast. Ted's incredible skills contributed to the countless custom homes he built in Western Canada. His passion for building and craftsmanship left smiles on the faces of people who started out as clients but soon became his friends. He also loved antique tractors, and was a proud member of the Mid-Isle Vintage Tractor & Equipment Club. He is survived by his daughter Dana, son Nathan, former wife Jan, mother Mary, brothers Jack, Ross and Roy, and sisters Susanne and Mary Anne. Ted will be lovingly remembered and missed by his entire extended (and large) family as well as his many friends. His family would like to extend their sincere gratitude to the incredible staff at the Palliative Care Unit at NRGH for their compassionate care during Ted's time there. A celebration of life will take place on Saturday, March 22 at 1:30 pm. If you wish to attend, please contact his daughter Dana at 778-988-3262. FIRST MEMORIAL FUNERAL SERVICES NANAIMO 250-754-8333

Ted was such a good friend! I grew up knowing him . He worked side by side with my brother and my dad . Ted built the house I am now sitting in. I see him in every room with memories of when he stayed here that summer to build it. He also hosted Harry and myself one winter when we parked our RV on his 10 acres and our grand children enjoyed his company and had a blast with the quads. Ted had a smile that lite up a room. We just found out today mar 21 of his passing. My deepest sympathies to his entire family. One if our best friends is now an angel in heaven. We love you TED. Rest in peace
