Barrie Hooff
June 10, 1946 - January 24, 2017
Tribute
Barrie passed away, at peace, on Tuesday, January 24, 2017, in Powell River, after a short illness. He was born on June 10, 1946, in Powell River, the town he loved and remained in as a lifelong resident.
A good son to his parents, Raymond and Irene Hooff, until they passed, Barrie enjoyed life with his siblings and nieces and nephews, all who proclaimed he was their favourite. When not at work in the mill, his time was spent producing fabulous vegetable and flower gardens and impressive woodworking.
In 1989, Barrie married Sandra Hooff and happily acquired nine stepchildren: Sherry Bullock, Casey Bullock (Renee), Kevin Hooff (Cynthia), Shalem aka Sam Hooff (Sarah), Sydni aka Pansy Bennie (Mark), Sequoia aka Joe Hooff, Deserie Hooff, Sara Mardis (Chris) and Gerritt Hooff (Pamela).
Barrie is survived by his wife, his stepchildren, multiple grandchildren and great-grandchildren, his two other children (his dogs, Billie and Sadie), six siblings: Dennis Hooff (Anna), Yvonne Hooff, Brent aka Buck Hooff, Fran Behan, Diane Winton, and Valerie Karlsen (Bill) and their extended families, and his longtime best friends Mal and Kathy Campbell.
Immediate family who predeceased Barrie include his parents and two brothers: Raymond (aka Chuck) Hooff and David Hooff.
A celebration of his life will be held on Barrie's birthday, June 10, at Powell River Town Centre Hotel; details to be announced.
The family extends sincere thanks to Dr. Marentette for her compassionate and attentive care.
