Marvin Edward Veale

With Deepest Sympathy

Marvin Veale (Sept. 28, 1943 – Mar. 8, 2023)

We are saddened to announce that our father, Marvin Edward Veale of Camrose, Alberta, passed away peacefully at St. Mary’s Hospital surrounded by his family on March 8, 2023. Marvin was the older of two children raised by parents, Arthur and Grace Veale also of Camrose. Marvin married Linda Luz in 1967 and raised three children in central Alberta and northern B.C. where he worked with Canadian Propane/ ICG Propane in sales and services for over thirty years in communities of Camrose, Wawa, Stettler, Leduc, Dawson Creek, Fort St. John & Grande Prairie. After his working career with ICG Propane, he returned to Camrose and worked with Hauser Home Hardware in sales from 2006 to 2012. He was proud of the home that he built in Camrose and retired here.

Marvin could tackle any kind of project. He could shingle a roof, contract building a home, repair plumbing and electrical, and assemble many things. He even built his own computer, installed solar panels on his RV, and maintained his own vehicles. He was a person who enjoyed learning about how things work and new technology.

Like his father, “Marv” was a kind-hearted, thoughtful, and considerate man who was passionate about RVing and camping with his family.

Marvin was predeceased by his parents Arthur and Grace, his brother Ron, and dear friend Lillian Zurba. Marvin is survived by his friend and former wife Linda Veale; children Duane (Aura) Veale, Brian (Jyl) Veale, and Sharilyn (Jason) Theriault; three grandchildren Olivia, Rachel, and Jocelyn; and many other relatives and friends.

A memorial service will be held at 2:00 p.m., Sunday, April 2, 2023 at Weber's Mount Pleasant Chapel, Camrose, Alberta.

 In lieu of flowers, kindly forward donations to the Camrose St. Mary Hospital Foundation - Palliative Care Fund.
