With deep sadness and heavy hearts, we share the news of the passing of our colleague and friend Graham Gardner. Graham was a long-term member of the Peace River Logging team who will be greatly missed. He started at PRL in October 2014 and was an essential part of the chipping, trucking and operations of the business. He was known for his light-hearted sense of humor and the positive impact he had on the work environment at PRL. It was mentioned that if you remembered a character at work throughout your career, Graham was this person. This tremendous loss will be felt by all who knew him. We send our deepest sympathies to Graham’s family, friends and coworkers.

Graham’s friends and family are invited to a viewing tomorrow Tuesday July 4th from 1:00pm-3:00pm at Peace Valley Funeral Home.

The flags at Mercer Peace River have been lowered to half mast to honour Graham’s memory. May he rest in peace.
