Obituary for Bruce William Burton

Bruce William Burton

It is wiith profound sadness we announce the passing of Bruce Burton, at the age of 73. Bruce passed away peacefully, surrounded by his family, at the Rockyview Hospital on Saturday, January 9, 2021. Bruce lost a short battle with lung cancer.

He is survived by the love of his life, wife Sharon (nee Brown); daughter, Katherine Burton; grandsons, Brandon Burton-Squire and Christopher Burton (Brittani); great granddaughters, Camille and Trinidy and great grandson, Kade Burton who stole his grampa's heart. He is also survived by his brothers, Bob Burton (Pat) and Wayne Burton (Wendy), both still residing in Bruce's hometown of Irma; sister in law, Brenda Hager; brother in law, Tom Brown and numerous aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by son, Craig Burton; his parents, Joe and Jean Burton; and in laws, Tom and Ruby Brown.

Many of you knew Bruce from the golf courses and curling rinks - both of which he loved. Over the years he managed to ace 3 Hole In One’s. Others will know him through his hard work under his company, Irma Construction, taking pride on small projects and building some beautiful homes.

Bruce and Sharon were married for 53 years and enjoyed their retirement wintering in Arizona where they made many new friends. In the summer, Bruce kept busy with small projects, lots of golf and yard work.
We would like to thank Dr. Young, the Home Care nurses and staff of Unit 94 for their care and compassion.

Due to the COVID there is no Celebration of Life scheduled at this time. If desired, a donation in Bruce's memory can be made to a charity of your choice. To view and share condolences please visit www.choicememorial.com.
