OBITUARY FOR DR. ROBERT ALLEN MASON, Penticton, BC
OBITUARY FOR DR. ROBERT ALLEN MASON
It is with great sadness that we express the sudden loss of Dr. Robert Allen Mason, who passed away on Sunday, October, 21, 2012.
He was born on July 7, 1959 in Windsor, Ontario and is survived by his loving wife, Mary-Ellen and two stepdaughters, Kassia and Lily all from Penticton, B.C.
He was predeceased by his father, John Mason, in 1973.
Rob is also survived by his mother, Mary Patricia Churchill of Leamington, Ont., his brothers; David (Barb) of Kingsville, Ont. and Jim (Nancy) of Toronto, Ont., his sisters; Dianne Morris, of Windsor, Ont., Betty Dunbar of Ottawa, Ont., and Jean Mason from Windsor, Ont.
He was also blessed with many nieces and nephews as well as many truly amazing and life-long friends, especially amongst the Penticton triathlon community.
Rob graduated from Ontario Veterinary College in 1986 and was well-known and respected as a Veterinarian Specialist throughout North America. He was double boarded, and specialized in internal medicine, and had practiced in Vancouver, Seattle, Victoria, and the Interior of British Columbia.
Rob truly believed in the pursuit of life-long learning and knowledge as it was a cornerstone of his life. Rob, also fondly referred to as “Mase,” always had a warm smile, a kind word for everyone, and an incredible energizing spirit that he lovingly shared.
He was well known for being an amazing story-teller and could share trivia on almost any subject. Rob believed in trying to make this world a better place and actively volunteered with organizations like the Ride 2 Survive for cancer research, and a teen mentoring program, to name a few.
In his earlier years he was an accomplished drummer in the Windsor Guardsmen Drum Corps, and competed in many competitions throughout North America. The Family wishes to thank everyone for all of the expressions of sympathy and condolences they have received. Special thanks also to the Penticton and District Search and Rescue Team for their valiant efforts.
We invite all to share in a Celebration of Rob’s life wearing their best “Tommy Bahama Shirt” at The Bench 1775 Winery, (1775 Naramata Road, Penticton, BC) on Saturday, October 27, 2012 at 1:30 p.m.
Please consider the weather and dress for an outdoor event.
Thank you to the Providence Funeral Home for providing arrangements, in lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Ride 2 Survive (ride2survive.ca), or the SPCA of Penticton (spca.bc.ca/support/donate).

Immigration...Migration. Influx of Foreign Nationals, Citizens...Asylum Seekers. Refugees 'Draining Coffers ..National Economies and Natives' Patience & Measures of Tolerance!
Friends of and in Canada and Internationally related compatriots and 'world-citizens' fending for themselves in any which way globally.
Allow me to tell you briefly the following and my post-note to the following I received from a very stable, reliable and balanced friend and source in Sweden.
First I said to myself..wow and added "How neutral can one get without readjusting the cabbage o breaking a leg...? This situation may generate serious implications for everyone involved.
Again, let me reiterate; Sweden is a 'welfare and a 'socio-acrobatic' community and state with about 10 million in population and proudly touting a welfare safety net unheard of or unseen in any other area of our planet. Correct me if you can prove me wrong.
Sweden remains the 'champion of numbers on welfare'..or what 'ya tink?
Now please consider the following expressed content... 'Swenglish' message, sent to me. Think and imagine the various social and economical consequences of those who should be concerned. I agree with the reaction of spontaneity screaming "Horrible"
"For your
knowledge from to-days Svenska dagbladet:
Wqe had 2011 29500 asylumseekrs,
rgds
PAF"
The Swedish and one of the major daily newspapers "Svenska Dagbladet" Is mentioning "We [Sweden] 2011 had 29,500 asylum seekers [people from other nations seeking refuge, safety and more....to sustain livelihood....!
UK or Great Britain had about 5,000!!! Look at the present population ratio and contrast between the two nations. Great Britain is 7 [seven]times bigger than 'we' , i.e. Sweden!
Denmark 'took' about 4,000 and so did Finland and Norway each 4,000...., Why in God's name should we [Sweden] always 'lead the gang????
My friends ..what is taking place in Sweden, of course, this is based on foremost politics and a grain of empathy and desire to 'do the right thing' I suspect.
Many Swedes consider what is happening and the strange influx of migrants [asylum seekers..refugees.... now since some years set in motion, as being both costly for taxpayers and a threat to Sweden's culture, national heritage and Swedish traditions and language....what more can be commented, I leave up to you...the readers of this.
