Brian Wittmack

With grateful hearts for a life well lived, the family of Brian Wittmack sadly announces the passing of their beloved, husband, dad, and grandpa on July 14, 2024, at the age of 76.

Leaving to mourn with cherished memories are his loving wife of 57 years Linda, daughter Kelly (Dave), daughter Kristine (John), and his most cherished granddaughter Emily. Also left behind are his sisters Brenda, Bev (Bob), brother Bruce (Robin), sister in-law Faith (Lewis) and brother in-law Alphonse, as well as numerous extended family and an abundance of friends.

Brian is pre-deceased by his parents Ernest and Jean, his very special brother Calvin, brother in-law Mort, mother and father in-law Jean and Harvey.

Brian was born in Consort, AB, and was raised on a farm in Big Valley, AB as the oldest of five siblings. He met Linda while attending High School in Big Valley and the two were married in 1967, in Stettler, AB. Soon after, Brian began his lengthy and successful career in the oil and gas industry. Throughout his career, the family moved to various locations around Alberta, where they created many lifelong friendships along the way. In 1992 they transferred to Bonnyville, AB, where Brian continued to work until his retirement in 2008.

After Brian’s retirement, he and Linda enjoyed their summer months at their home on Moose Lake and their winter months in the Arizona sunshine, and in 2020 they moved to Lacombe, AB. Brian enjoyed golfing, curling, boating, travel, and spending quality time with family and friends.

Brian’s family would like to thank the medical team at Central Alberta Cancer Centre, and the many doctors, nurses, and homecare team for their ongoing care and support.

Memorial donations can be made in Brian’s name to the charity of your choosing.

A memorial service will be held at Wilson’s Funeral Chapel in Lacombe, AB on Saturday, July 20, 2024, at 1:00pm.
