It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Ryan Palmateer on June 23, 2021, at the age of 44 years. He was a son, brother, nephew, uncle, and a great friend. Ryan will be forever loved and remembered by his parents, Sandy and John; sisters, Amanda and Melissa; brother, Jesse; nieces and nephews, Emma, Taylor, Isabelle, and Raistlyn; Aunt Helen and Uncle Ed. He was predeceased by his Grandma Ruth and Grandpa George as well as his uncle Rick.

Ryan in his younger years enjoyed many things. He could be found fishing at the bridge, out on the golf course and at the hockey rink where played goalie on a Rep team. Ryan was a dedicated employee of the Osoyoos Bottle Depot. He was a cheerful, kind, reliable person and was always quick with a humorous comment. He will be deeply missed by his family and friends.

A Celebration of Life will take place on Saturday, September 18, 2021, from 2:00 – 6:00 p.m. at the Osoyoos Bottle Depot.

“Those who knew Ryan, even just a little, lost a shining light in their lives”
