Born February 13,1951 in Middleton , N.S. passed away September 22, 2017 in Chemainus, B.C. after a brief battle with cancer.

Bryon began  working as a machinist on submarines in Halifax, joined the R.C.M.P. in 1975 and was posted to Chemainus, Port Hardy, Merritt, Port McNeill, and Parksville where he retired. 

He happily  spent his spare time, before and after retirement,  tinkering at Highway 4 Auto Salvage  in Coombs. He kept many a vehicle afloat for his family. 

Bryon was a true handyman and after moving to Chemainus, he completed his final and most challenging home renovation.
