November 25, 1954 - December 2, 2014

With a heavy heart, we have to announce the sudden death of our beloved Stefan; husband, father, brother, son-in-law, uncle, brother-in-law and friend. Stefan lived his life with a lot of fun and good humor and with his lovely personality, he touched many people’s hearts. Being a chef by trade, he ran the Gaff Rig Restaurant, followed by developing a remote island. After that venture, he established Island Timberframe which he retired from a few days prior to his death. Stefan also helped in founding the Rotary Club of Cumberland Centennial and was a member until his death.

He leaves to mourn his beloved wife of 31 years, Annemarie; daughter Nicole (Toni), son Robi, brother Ruedi (Brigitte), nieces (Stefanie, Corina), sister-in-law Susi (Rene) and nieces (Emily, Sophie), parents-in-law (Muetti & Daddy) and many more friends and family in both Switzerland and Canada.

You will be unbearably missed Steffi Baby, Daddy.

Flowers are gratefully declined. If you wish, donations may be made to the Rotary Club of Cumberland Centennial in Stefan’s name.

A Celebration of Life will be held Saturday, December 13th, 2pm at Comox Valley Funeral Home, 1101 Ryan Road, Courtenay.
