GRANT ALEXANDER BODLEY

 

Grant Alexander Bodley, beloved partner of Sandra Simpson (Wilson), passed away peacefully on Friday, January 24, 2020.

Predeceased by parents Mabel and Norm Bodley, Grant is lovingly remembered by his two daughters Andrea and Kyla, son-in-law Mahmoud, grandsons Samuel and Leo, brother Bruce (Debbie) and sister Kathy. Also left to mourn his passing are Sandra’s daughters Ashley (son Hartley), Shauna and Jonathan (children Emma, Aude and Finley).

Born August 7, 1945, Grant started his 37 years with Scotiabank in Winnipeg before moving to Vancouver, Toronto, Bahamas and Calgary, where he eventually retired. Following his career, he went on to work at Canadian Western Bank for 10 years. He moved back to Winnipeg in 2015 to be with Sandra. He loved all sports, but golf was his passion, and he played with a Golf Group “Happy Hackers” in Winnipeg when he moved here.

Grant will forever be remembered for his gentle nature, his kindness and caring deeply for those he loved. He gave us years of fun and enjoyed travelling with his family. We will always cherish those beautiful memories of times we spent in Calgary and Mexico.

A memorial will be held at Wojcik’s Funeral Chapel, 2157 Portage Avenue @ Sharp Boulevard on Wednesday, January 29, 2020 at 2:00 p.m. Please come share your memories of Grant.

“You had a smile for everyone, you had a heart of gold,

 you left the sweetest memories that this world could hold.

Always loved and forever remembered.”
