WALTER F. BORAS, beloved husband of Fran Boras, of Lethbridge passed away peacefully at the Edith Cavell Care Centre in Lethbridge on Wednesday February 15, 2012 at the age of 74 years.

He is also survived by two sisters Ann Chontosh, Marie (Ed) Moore, and a brother Bing (Vicki) Boras. He was predeceased by his parents and brother John. Walter was born on April 25, 1937 in Raymond AB, married to Fran (Zubach) on Jan 21, 1961. He took over the family farm shortly thereafter where they raised three children. Walter had a passion for people; he was a generous man who would invite anyone who stopped by, in for coffee or a meal. He had a love for sports and enjoyed a good discussion about the Oilers or Blue Jays. Religion was very important to him as well as family time. In 1989 he and Fran moved to Lethbridge where golf, walking, and coffee with the guys became his new past time. Walter spent 17 years on the sugar beet board working to sustain and provide for the viability of the industry. He was also involved in many other community organizations. Grandpa was a gentle man, kind spirited and loved by all. A Prayer Service will be held at the OUR LADY OF THE ASSUMPTION CATHOLIC CHURCH, 2405 - 12 Ave. S on Friday, February 17, 2012 at 7:00 P.M.
