We Remember

VAN COTTHEM, Edward
—
Ed passed away peacefully at home, at the age of 72, on December 8, 2019. The way he died is just like the way he lived: he wrote his own rules and paved his own way; and if you said he couldn’t do it, he would make sure he could.
His four-and-a-half-year battle with stage 4 pancreatic cancer is a testament of how “Steady Eddy” lived his life.
He is survived by his loving wife, Debbie; 3 children: Sherry (Scott), Shauna (Scott), and Corey (Tammy); 6 grandchildren: Kody, Logan, Kaisha, Sydney, Brooklyn, and Todd; his great grandchild, Emily; and his sister Marion.
May he rest in peace with Walter!
A celebration of Ed’s life will be held on Saturday, January 11, 2020 at 1:00 pm at the Mission Tap House, 3110 Lakeshore Road, Kelowna, BC.
If you wish to send a condolence, post photos or share a memory, please scroll down the page to the area called “Condolences”.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you Debbie and all of the family.
Ed was such a kind and full of life kind of guy. His laughter I still remember from working at the pheasant and quail pub…
Sorry for your loss Julia and Paul Charlton.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. He was a special man and will be missed by all.
We were so sad to hear this. Our condolences to Deb and the VanCotthem family. Ed was a wonderful man and we have many fond memories camping at Echo Lake and dinners at Shaunas. He will be truly missed
