MUIR, Reginald Anthony MUIR, Reginald Anthony - October 14, 1938 - February 25, 2008. It is with deep sorrow that the family announces the passing of Reg on February 25, 2008, in Concordia Hospital. He is survived by his wife, Iris; children, Craig (Candace), Sommer (Tim) Cranen, Tracie (Lee) Hannaford, and grandchildren, Ryder, Trystan, Hadley, Tyler and Shayna. He is also survived by his sister, Noreen (Ron) Ellis, Nova Scotia; sisters-in-law, Dorothy (Ron), Bonnie (Gary), Lori, Isobel; his nieces and nephews, and many friends. Reg was born in North Noel Road, Hants Co., on October 14, 1938. He was predeceased by his parents, John Lester and Muriel Kathleen. He was also predeceased by his sister, Carol Toni (Victor). He was raised by his aunt, Maggie and uncle, William Custance of Upper Rawdon. Reg made his living as a long distance truck driver, crossing this continent many times over. He loved the open road, but missed his family when he was away. He had a great sense of humour and delighted in having people wonder what he would say next. He loved his rum and coke, country music, westerns, and being able to yell "bingo". His absence will leave a large hole in our family. A memorial gathering in celebration of his life will take place on Sunday, March 2, between 1-4 p.m. in Knysh Funeral Chapel, 1020 Main St., Winnipeg, Man., phone (204) 582-0973.
