PASTOOR, PIETER DIRK

Peter, beloved husband of Mavis, is now at peace and safe in the arms of Jesus. Peter was born in Holland and immigrated to Lethbridge in 1954. He worked for his dad at Ducan Canvas Co., and within a year, became a partner. A few years later, he bought out his father, expanded the company into Ducan Industries Ltd., supplying furniture to the RV and mobile home industry. He loved to sail and crossed the Atlantic three times in his own boats, and went through the Panama Canal twice. Amazing feats for a man that learned to use a sextant from a book after he had left the harbor and was headed out to sea. He loved to golf, and for many years, he followed the sun and the golf courses and spent many happy winters in Arizona. Besides his loving wife, Mavis, Peter is survived by brothers, Dirk (Anne) and Bill (Phyllis); children, Grace (Joop) Lommerts, Joan (Albert), Kathy (Harm), Florence (Sean) Christophers, Shelagh, Bridget (Kirk) Mearns, and 7 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren; and extended family, with special mention of nephew Clarence (Lynette) Taal, and niece Florence (Bruce) Look. He was predeceased by his parents, Klaas and Jantina Pastoor and sister Froukje Taal.
