In loving memory ~
It is with great sadness that Christina and Peter Mehs announce the passing of their father, HARDY MEHS, on June 29, 2024 in Terrace, BC, shortly before his 95th birthday.
Born on July 30, 1929, in Dortmund, Germany, Bernhard "Hardy" Heinrich Wilhelm Mehs survived the Nazi regime and WWII before coming to Canada in the Sixties to learn English. There he met Susan Rose (Mehs), who was to become the love of his life and his second wife, and stayed in Terrace for the rest of his life.
Hardy's Celebration of Life was held at MacKay's Funeral Home, in Terrace, BC, on Tuesday, July 9, 2024, at 1:30 pm, with a private reception for close friends and family afterwards at his house.
He is predeceased by his older brother, Julius Mehs, and his wife, Susan Rose (Mehs), and is survived by his children, Bernd Mehs, Christina Mehs (Heimdallson), and Peter Mehs; his grandchildren Lena Mehs (Heck), Karl Bernhard Heimdallson, and Alvena Susan Heimdallson; and his great-grandson Julian Heck.
