Patrick Humphreys

Patrick John Humphreys, born in Chilliwack, BC on May 16, 1956, lost his courageous battle with prostate cancer on August 12, 2024. He is preceded in death by his father Ralph, mother Victoria, and brothers Don and Vincent. He is survived by his wife, Patti (Severny), children Kristi Nelson (Luke), David (Nii), Alina Miller (William), and Jordan, and grandchildren Charlotte Nelson, Liam, Abigail and Claire Miller. He also leaves behind his brothers Bob and Steve, and multiple nieces and nephews.

Patrick was a dedicated husband, father, grandfather and friend. He was a journeyman electrician, working with many local companies, as well as his own, South Island Electric. If he had any spare time, you could find him in his yard, tinkering in his workshop, carving beautiful wood artwork, or making food for his family. Son Jordan’s words perfectly sum up Patrick, “What an honor and blessing it was to know and be raised by this man - this perfectly imperfect example of love and support. This talented artist and chef. Professional do-it-yourselfer, jack of all trades. Beholder of nature's beauty. All-time goofball and entertainer. Mountain lion impersonator. Father.”

Celebration of life to be held on Sunday August 25, 2024, at 2:30pm at the Royal Canadian Legion (downstairs), 6726 Eustace Rd, Sooke.
