Victor Klassen

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Victor Ivan Steven Klassen of Kamloops, BC, on August 27, 2023, at 76 years of age. Victor is survived by his loving wife Arli Klassen, his children Angela (Jim) Klassen of Kamloops, BC, Shannon (Marco) Sirch of Beaumont, AB, Steven (Amanda) Klassen of Christina Lake, BC, and Amanda (Cody) Savisky of Kamloops, BC. Also left to cherish his memory are grandchildren Kristopher (Jessica), Devon (Marie), Travis (Tiffany), Dylon (Judian), Victoria (Les), David (Amber), Brianna (John), Hayden (Colby), Alexei, Katya, and Tennessee (Bryce), great-grandchildren Oliver, Silas, Rowan, Blake, Amelia, and Lydia as well as his sibling Bruce Klassen (last of 12 siblings), and many nieces and nephews.

Born in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan in 1947 to David and Anna Klassen, Victor lived in Big River until he was 16 when the family moved to Kamloops. On October 16, 1966, he met the love of his life, Arli, on a blind date and in 1967 they married. In 1969, their family was started and it has continued to expand with grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The last few years have been difficult as his physical and mental health disintegrated, but he passed peacefully while waiting for his teeth to be brought to him. Dad enjoyed building model airplanes, playing crib, reading, and watching MASH. He spent 60 years serving his God, Jehovah, and died with the Bible's hope for the future in his heart. Many thanks to friends and family for their support over the years.
