We Remember
NORDINE, Bryan
December 14, 1950 — January 19, 2026
Our beloved ‘Papa’ fulfilled his great calling to his family, and the Lord has taken him home on January 19, 2026. Bryan was 75 years old. Born December 14, 1950, in Vancouver, BC, to Carl & Emma Nordine. Bryan leaves behind two sisters, Karlla Dion (Paul) and Cheryl Van Oene.
Bryan is survived by his devoted wife Rosanne of 51 years and 5 sons; Malachi (Nicole), Uriah (Mollyo), Abraham (Eniko), Solomon (Lisa), and Joshua (Charissa). Between the sons, Papa had 21 much-loved grandchildren.
Bryan was a supporter and advocate of Christian education, the Pro-Life movement and various charities. In 2003, Bryan suffered an ascending and descending aortic dissection. He was given 20 minutes to live and a 1-2% survival rate. By the grace of God, the prayers of many were answered that day, and Papa was given another 22 years instead. Papa used those years to love his family and grow in his faith with Jesus.
As a young man, Bryan owned a logging company in Hope, BC. By 1985, Bryan moved to Kelowna to raise his growing family. Bryan was a CGA by trade and known locally under Nordine & Co. Bryan pursued various business ventures over the years. It was Bryan’s eternal optimism, cheerful outlook and kindness to people that continues to inspire friends and relatives. Bryan enjoyed many hobbies from hot rods, to flying airplanes, to playing guitar, to making movies. “Walter Jones, PI“, a 90-minute family-friendly film on YouTube, became an instant hit with the grandkids and demonstrates Bryan’s foresight.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Bryan’s memory to Kelowna Right to Life Society.

Very much enjoyed my talks with Brian on his block walks. Always a happy spirit with a story….or 4. That brief paused he would make at our driveway resulted in half hour discussions. Was pleased that Brian recently took decision to join the church’s Men’s Night events – a monthly fellowship
He was sorely missed when the group last met, sadly only days after his passing. A shock to us all as he was so filled with life and willing to share his love for God and his faith. We are comforted knowing that God has made a place for Brian in his kingdom. Heartfelt blessings to the Nordine family.
Dear Nordine Family,
Mrs. O from KCS here sending my condolences to you all at the passing of your dear husband, father, papa, and friend. My dear mother very recently passed away also,and so I empathize with your loss, especially. Bryan sounded like quite a guy! What a wonderful hope we have, though – that our Lord Jesus Christ has prepared a heavenly home and is waiting for his children with outstretched arms!
So sorry for your loss. We always enjoyed our chats at hockey or the campsite. Rest in peace, Brian
Our most heartfelt condolences to you Rosanne and all of your family. Bryan was a wonderful man and will be greatly missed. Sending lots of love and prayers to you and yours!
I live streamed the funeral service Rosanne. It was a great tribute to Bryan. I will always remember you and Bryan as good people
