Tribute

Wesley or better known as “Yaya” passed away suddenly and did not feel any pain. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, uncle and friend. Born in Winnipeg.

He worked at BC Rail, Wolfe Chev, Progress Design & Solution Painting and Decorating.

He is survived by his wife, Linda; beloved daughter, Kerri-Lynn Doucet, son-in-law Paul; the apples of his eyes, grandchildren, Maddy, Ben, Brady & Sam.
His siblings, Judy, Rhonda (Cliff), Bradley (Susan), Cheryl and many nieces and nephews as well as the Doucet/Yoo family.

He is predeceased by his parents, Mary & Ingvald Thompson and his daughter, Alison Thompson-Hutchinson 1976-2022.

Special thank you to lifelong extended family Carroll & Allan Taylor & family.  Thank you to the renal/dialysis unit at Penticton Regional Hospital.

Wes loved fishing, golf and sitting on the beach with his pals in Osoyoos. He was a big teddy bear, all bark and no bite, he was always up for a good time. He was a friend to all he met, always there to chat or to offer a drink. There are so many special people who were so close to him and you know who you are.

At Wesley’s request there will not be a service. Instead, raise a glass to him and say “I love you man”

In lieu of flowers please donate to his favourite charity.
