We Remember

MOORE, Owen Harold

May 22, 1995 — May 26, 2017

 

Our hearts are broken. Our Owen left us on Friday, May 26 in Kelowna, BC.

Owen’s amazing, ever-present smile masked a deeper sadness. We will forever miss his beautiful eyes and flowing hair, his generosity, his kind and welcoming heart, his sensitive soul, his passionate approach to life, and his love for family and friends. Owen was never afraid of new experiences. He sought out epic adventures and fun times, never hesitating to invite others to join in. His ability to find his friends wherever he went was unparalleled.

He was rarely far from a guitar. He was a talented musician who lived for writing, playing, and recording music, and if this involved his buddies, all the better. He was so proud that he had just become an Audio Engineer and was busy working in the industry. Owen was doing what he loved.

He had a vibrant soul that made an impact on people the world over. He was, and always will be, loved immensely by his parents, Betty and Randy; siblings Ryan, Kelly, and Sarah; Grandpa Al (Moore), Auntie Barb (Ralph) Klein, Auntie Karen (Rob) Sartoretto, Sault Ste Marie; Uncle Bruce (Maureen) Stoskopf, Milton; his cousins; and so very, very many friends in Calgary, Kelowna, Vancouver, Luxembourg, and well beyond.

Please join in a Celebration of Owen’s far-too-short, but jam-packed life on Sat. June 3, 2:00 p.m. at Edenbrook Funeral Home, 24223 Twp Rd 242, Calgary, AB. Those wishing to pay their respects may do so prior to the service commencing at 1:00 p.m.

Something good needs to come of this tragedy. Donations may be made to the Canadian Mental Health Association in Owen’s memory (www.cmha.ca).

“I got a rambler’s heart

I got a roaming soul

I got a heart that bleeds

in the desert storm

I got a soul that sings all these

broken hearted cowboy songs”

    I was with my son tonight, and he told me of an amazing jam session he had with his colleague and friend, Owen. He then told me that Owen died shortly after. With tears in his eyes, he talked about Owen. All the work days and happy times. He said that last jam night was so amazing. Our family is crying with you. We are so so sad for the loss of such a beautiful young man, and we hold your family in our hearts. The Jankos.

Testimonials

They took care of me like family.

Judith Szabo

Everything was so organized and pertinent to what we needed. Everyone we met was kind, courteous and very helpful during our emotional and challenging time. Thank you so much.

Heather Mayne

They were so prompt on answering any questions and changing things. They were prepared and respected any religious decisions. The process was so seamless and made easy in such a high stress situation.

Tanya Kohar

In the past 2 years Springfield has helped us through the death of my Mother and my Father. Their response and help allowed us to focus on the remaining family rather than worrying about details of the funeral and all the notifications that are required upon a death.

Terry Eldridge

The atmosphere has been nothing but professional during times of grief.  After the passing of my mother, the staff coached me on the next steps and looked after filling in all the government forms that I needed to sign, which took a huge burden off my mind at the time.

Donald McClure

Everyone was so helpful and kind.  There was no pressure.  They provided exactly what we needed.

Diane Greenwood

From the time I called to the completion of all the services, I received compassionate, attentive and professional care.  There was a sense of caring from each staff member.  I was turning over my Mom to their care and I felt very comfortable with everyone.  I felt heard and never felt pushed into any decision.

Katherine Lewis

I have always found the team at Springfield Funeral Home to be VERY caring, kind, considerate and helpful.  I have and will continue to recommend them to anyone who asks which funeral home would I suggest they use.  No other funeral home I have dealt with even comes close to Springfield Funeral Home.

Ethna Tutt

Right at the onset, I was made very comfortable, there was no pressure.  I was made to feel as if I was the only one they had to serve.

Frances Baum

Everything that was arranged for us was perfect.  Our loved one, husband, father, brother was treated with respect.  Thank you for making this difficult time a little more acceptable via your staff’s obvious caring and respect.
