We Remember

AMOR, Russell

April 12, 1969 — March 20, 2025

We say goodbye, for now…  We are heartbroken to announce the sudden loss of Russell at just 55 years old.

Russell is survived by his loving wife of almost 29 years, Carolyn, and their amazing son, Andrew (Gurnoor); his mother, Lauris Kean; his sister Margaret (Rob) Lye and brother Brian (Lori) Amor; as well as his mother-in-law, Jeannette Heinzelmann; and sister-in-law, Linda (Eric) Schlichting and brothers-in-law Donald (Susan) Heinzelmann and Neil Plasko. He will aslo be remembered by so many aunts, uncles, nephews, and nieces. Russell will be so greatly missed by all who knew him, and for all the lives he touched. Sadly, he was predeceased by his father, Arthur Amor, and his sister Michelle Plasko.

Russell will always be known for his great wit and his constant strength for life. He loved his family like no other. Russell thoroughly enjoyed his hockey and his kickboxing… these were his passions. He was able to meet a lot of people through his passions, and many became his lifelong friends.

A Celebration of life will be held at a later date in honour of Russell. Details to be announced. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the BC SPCA.

    Russ was such a positive, light-hearted and kind person and he meant as much to our eclectic group of kickboxers as we meant to him. He always had a smile on his face and was quick to make a joke and cheer everyone on. At the same time, he was the first person who would ask if any of us were okay if we were injured or even just seemed tired. His presence is so very missed but we all continue to feel him in the room with us during every class.
